All @ ANIE

Good Morning & welcome to my blog, a new beginning to a New Year 2009 !!

I will try to reach you all with my thoughts through this blog and it will be an endeavour that I do write on it everyday so long as my time management improves!!

I will share my thoughts, ideas as applicable to every day life be it at work or home or as I travel

Year 2008 was going on as a brilliant year for us and the world until the "bomb of economic crisis" blew up. Did you know that only 2 people out of the 6 billion on the earth could foresee it come and one was Dr. Rubbini ,an economist who studied with my cousin brother during his University days in USA?

That brings me to the point of thinking how we all must manage in these turbulent times and the Mantra No. 1 is to stop squandering of resources on obsolete business and free up capable people to take advantage of new opportunities.

We all have to have a discipline that makes us face up to the reality. We need to get things done effectively and that is possible if we slough off the past that has ceased to be productive.

Leaders will have to abandon "yesterday" and then only will they create "tomorrow".

Until and unless we do systematic and purposeful abandonment, we will squander our best resources on things we should never have been doing or should no longer do. Businesses that do not do it will have fewer resources available for tomorrow

Our Chairman believes that our style of operation needs modification and redesign since with period of time every activity becomes obsolete. At ANIEwe must be capable of change.

A company “Renoir” from Sweden is likely to start a 4 week review and analysis of our Business process and will likely educate us on areas of weakness and improvement. Hopefully a new set of yardsticks to measure performance of our companies will be evolved.

Let us brave the Year 2009 as a TEAM (Together Everyone Achieves More,,).

Good Day..
