One fine afternoon in the month of February 2010, I got this call from a person who claimed to be with a real estate firm called RE/MAX.

In a Cisco ($25b networking hardware and VoIP company) sales training course I attended, they had an example of a salesperson who was making a phone call to an important prospect and while the prospect’s secretary put him on hold his mind constantly kept reinforcing negative thoughts “He doesn’t want to speak with me”, “Why did I call him?” ,“He is very busy, maybe I should call him later”, “I’m

This thanks giving a lot of people were asking me “What is Black Friday?” Initially I answered that the day after Thanksgiving in the United States, is frequently referred to as Black Friday, but most of them wanted to know the real meaning, also if there is any special story behind this.

How do you secure your rights over intellectual property? When a software development project is finished, who retains ownership of both the software’s source code and the intellectual property rights? These are valid concerns that should be addressed before outsourcing your software development needs, commences. To develop software inside the company’s premises is undeniably safer, but lower

Maybe its just coz I am comparing the services with some of the very good experience I have had at various other places in the past. But the Pune and Mumbai eating establishments are horrible, from the waiter who disgustingly clears his throat before serving the food, to the ignored service requests, and the sweeping up of dust into the air; good service isn’t known in most of the restaurants in

The other day I was just thinking about my past experiences, in my free time and was trying to understand that what is more important: Your independence or your interdependence? Do you enjoy break time with your peers, or colleagues, or would you rather like to meet new people every day? These are just a couple of the factors you should consider when choosing between inside and outside sales.

India’s outsourced service sector is booming, the way overseas manufacturing boomed in China several years ago; it’s apparent in both the call centers and software outsourcing industries. While India is making great leaps and bounds in its service sector, I question if Indian companies have the knowledge and personnel training necessary to deliver American standard service.

Unionizing IT/BPO sector will hamper the growth of Industry. I hope that it won’t happen in India as this will be a back step and it will reduce the growth rate of most booming industry in India. Foreign clients don’t like unionizing the sector because of the fact that it’s just another way to blackmail them.
