Friends,

My son has sent me this story about Indian Management, which I feel is not unique to India alone. It is a global phenomenon infecting the corporate world. Thought it is worth sharing on the cove.

Umang :D
Unfortunately....it is a global problem. Different places, different names, but the same old :horse:

Great post - it put a needed smile on my face for the day.

Here is my own, real-life humor tidbit to add:

Heard the other day from management - "We have visitors coming in tomorrow, so clean up and follow your procedures."

Does that mean any other day we can be slobs and don't have to follow any procedures?? :frust:

Very true, indeed !

This things are totaly unjust and still they are accepted.

Everybody does, all thinks it's normal. And still, they wander why things go bad and how should we fix the situation - but everything is obvious. And I know it's obvious to all of those managers. But they just don't care. They care only for them.

Beyond the nice words from PowerPoints and the "events", things like "growth", "company culture", "values", "company policy" (this is also a must have but never respected - we only like to have it to look good on us), "benefits", "respect for the worker", "fair environment", "win-win situation" - beyond this is their lack of responsability, their imorality, their lack of care of the employees.

The true win-win is only when you care. And when you really care as a manager, then you won't do like in the boate example.

But the fact is that most of us don't care.
