Rajeev Peshawaria
argues :
These
days it is almost trite to say that the world is changing
more rapidly than ever before. However, a quick glance
at the following
facts shows how much truer this statement is even compared
to just 3-5 years ago:
|
The
top ten in demand jobs in 2010 did not exist in 2004.
This means we are currently training students for jobs
that don't yet exist. Furthermore, it is likely that
these future jobs will use technologies that haven't
yet been invented...>

13, internet 4, Ipod 3, and Facebook just 2 years. Connectivity
is changing human behaviour at an alarming rate.

How
many of you have a Facebook account? How many of you are
regularly logging into Facebook to check updates, post
entries and look at photos.... during work hours?
|
If you caught the latest movie, the Social Network, about
the boy genius Mark Zuckerberg, who started this social
networking website, you’ll see that it is all about
connecting. It’s about putting yourself out there,
while still maintaining control about who gets to be in
your circle of friends.>

Q
& A
ON POOR PERFORMANCE |
DHARMEN SIVALINGAM
|
After
misconduct, the second most common reason for terminating
the services of an employee is an employee’s perceived
poor performance. For misconduct, the law’s focal
point is: “Did he do it?”
If
he did, he may justifiably be dismissed.

INDISPENSABLE
I
must confess I started on this book, already a Godin convert.
I have been hooked on his blog for the past year, one
of the few things I read religiously every day.
|
In
fact, I look forward to it. Godin, as he describes himself,
is a writer, speaker and agent of change. He has authored
ten best-selling books such as Tribes, Meatball Sundae,
The Dip, Purple Cow and All Marketers are Liars.
