Cost cutting - Fuelling the 'Great Recession'

Is your organisation acting like a scrooge and cutting costs? Is it limiting wage hikes and taking away perks? Is it introducing measures to save a penny here and a penny there in the bills? If that is the case, your organisation may be one of those contributing to the continuation of the 'Great Recession'.

Somewhere in the year 2008, the global economy went into a recession like one that the world had never seen before. Yes, the Great Depression of the 30s was 'great' but it wasn't global, the impact was limited to Europe and to some extent to the Americas. But what happened this time was truly global. Some of the leading investment banks of the western world had to be sold off. The governments had to step in to protect the leading financial organisations of their countries using the taxpayers' money. There were widespread layoffs across the world. There was a global recruitment freeze and even MBAs from the top business schools could not get jobs matching their profiles.

What was the reason behind all this? Experts gave their narratives which...  Read more>>

Book review: Psychology - Textbook for Class XI (India)

Title:
Psychology - Textbook for Class XI (India)

Rating:
Yellow

Genre:
Psychology

Author:
Various

Publisher:
NCERT

The Book:
The book, written by a group of various academicians, is prescribed for students of Psychology in Class XI (India) by the Central Board of Secondary Education. For other readers this can serve as a primer in Psychology with its coverage of basic concepts in the subject.

Comments:
The book is useful for beginners due to its easy language and broad coverage of concepts. That said the book has the typical flaws that NCERT books usually have, verbosity and insufficient emphasis on graphics. The concepts are not covered in-depth in the book so you are left gasping for more information at places.

Book review: Games people play - The psychology of human relationships

Title:
Book Review: Games people play - The psychology of human relationships

Rating:
Green

Genre:
Psychology, Organisational Behaviour

Author:
Eric Berne

Publisher:
Penguin

The Book:
The book, written by a professional psychiatrist and the discoverer of Transactional Analysis himself, on application of transactional analysis in everyday life through the identification and treatment of 'Games'. The first few chapters cover the underlying theory and then we move to the more practical and interesting part on Games.

Comments:
This book is a good read for anyone wherever he or she is and whatever he or she does. The book is quite interesting as it deals with the day to day life of every human and that should encourage people who usually avoid 'heavy' books to read this book.

I would not guarantee that someone reading would like, or even understand, the book. Nor can I guarantee that everything in there still holds true. But even so, this book would prove to be useful to the reader because it would enable the reader to view humans from an altogether different dimension, which in itself would be a great boon.

Love

People spend so much time in defining, discussing and debating about love. Why don't they simply close their eyes and spend the time feeling it, enjoying it?
Probably because none of them know what LOVE is.

I am 25

I am 25,
quite sick of my life,
waiting for death to arrive,
but she does not come.

Like all females,
she smiles and teases,
makes you wander behind her,
but she does not come.

Life isn't better,
then if I were on a stretcher,
making love to death,
as the 'boys watch on.

For some there is happiness galore,
materialistic, senseless, totally psyched out
more than me, much more!

The search for sanity goes on,
the indelible marks of life hang on,
hit, hurt, ready to fall,
as the people watch on.

I am 25,
quite sick of my life,
waiting for death to arrive,
but she does not come.
