True Happiness...

True happiness lies in selfless giving only

Qualities of the Good managers as observed in my life...

During my tenure with GAIL(A Govt. of India U/T) I have interacted with some good managers. I learnt that 'self-discipline'  is a common quality among all good managers.

Another biggest aspect is the best of communication skills.

 Some of the most impressive features  are their physical fitness, mental alertness  and power of observation of human behaviors......

One more common characteristic is the ability of taking stress and the capability of handling crisis.

Even without doing MBAs we can be good managers, if we understand the dynamics of human behaviors including universal rules for motivation,  understanding of differences in personalities, attitudes, aspirations etc......


The first and foremost thing in evolving as a good manager is attainment of higher levels of ENERGY AND ENTHUSIASM to work for cause/mission/objecitves....
Till we understand that WORK GIVES PLEASURE, SATISFACTION, HAPPINESS AND  PEACE,  we can never be good managers in our whole life....

If we enjoy our work, we are really blessed with the real happiness of living a life....

All other forms of enjoyment give us only temporary pleasure or relaxation, except the eternal pleasure of DOING OUR WORK AND ENJOYING IT AT THE SAME TIME.....

THIS ABOVE DISCOVERY TOOK 48 YEARS OF MY LIFE ....I STILL BELIEVE THAT THOUGH IT IS LATE THE SAME COULD BE ENJOYED FROM TODAY ONWARDS....

Here possibly lies the meaning of life, as revealed to me through the holy blessings of GOD...


So let us all try to realize the meaning of 'WORK IS WORKSHOP'  in our own different ways and May God bless us all.....
