Nice post. It is always good to see people expressing themselves in different ways.
ReplyDeleteSince you seem to be associated with Management, I would like to suggest you a new magazine - PEOPLE MATTERS started by an ISB Alumni, which was suggested to me by a friend and which I have found very useful.
It deals with various important aspects of management, especially those related to Leadership & People Management.
It's also relatively cheap. I guess its annual subscription is about Rs. 400 (US$ 8 approx) which is even less than the cost of a standard Pizza.
Their last issue had an enlightening article by Robert Kaplan where he talks about how organisations can create opportunities out of current economic downturn.
I got its subscription online through their website: http://www.peoplematters.in
If you like the magazine, kindly refer it to your friends or colleagues in the organization you work. They may be interested in subscribing to it.
Thanks
