No CommentsWhen things don’t go well, we all blame the people managing it. Unfortunately, the mismanagement has been growing consistently in India. Be it uncontrolled population growth, rapid unemployment and unemployability, pots on the road or poison in the mid day meals, every day every where we look around, the news is full of negativity and self doubt.

The speed for change all around us has been rapidly increasing yet the need for opting for the change has not been able to pace up. We change our cell phones and IT tools much faster but the CPU installed in our mind generally does not create self-upgrades regularly. Is it because we love status quo or are quite apprehensive to venture into domains unknown or unexplored?

When was the last time you smiled whole-heartedly? When was the last time you expected a smile from a service provider and felt disheartened when you didn’t receive it? Land at a neighboring country in the South-east Asia and the board says “Welcome to the country of smiling people.” Why is smiling not so natural in India?

When was the last time you were creative? Today, Yesterday, the day before…last year…last to last…??? Look at all the problems around us at an individual or organizational or the national level. Can’t they just be solved through aligning the creative juices God has gifted us? If we want, we can easily find a resolute way to prevent 5 year old kids being tormented for life and bring in high level of dignity and respect for women all across. If we want, the climate issues and resolving international conflicts would look all so easy.

You may have paraskavedekatriaphobia (also known as friggatriskaidekaphobia) if you have the fear of Friday the 13th. However, if you have the fearful dislike for the number 13, you may just be suffering from Triskaidekaphobia. No one knows why we develop these fears and the correct history that implanted these fears in us. Yet, we are fearful.

“A meeting is a place where minutes are kept and hours are lost.” This is a very old saying that still holds good vis-à-vis the daily rigmarole of the organisations. Why do we have so many meetings? Why are the action loving professionals forced or expected to sit-through end- less meetings which do not leave them enough time to begin actions? What can be done to break the conference room barriers and get into the open world where the concoction and aroma of freshly brewed actions await?

Some change, though slow, has started emerging. Some people in the Government who have been pretending to sleep have started showing the signs of waking up to the untiring voices of the Indian Youth. Some signs of gloom in the industry are giving way to some signs of bloom. Some hope has started. Some more pressure still needs to be exerted.

A lot has been said in the media during the last fortnight yet a lot can still be said. The fighting spirit and sacrifice by a young woman, Nirbhaya, Damini or call her by any name, has ignited the whole country. The pain has hurt one and all. We hope that the turning point for the change towards the positive is round the corner. We pray that the incidence acts as the point of inflection. India is in no mood to give any more sacrifices of its daughters. Enough is Enough. No More Now!

When educated and intelligent people leave reasons aside and are driven by the emotions of appeasement, chaos strike. Two young girls in Mumbai discovered this recently when they were at the receiving end of the mind-less application of a law that should not have been there in the first place. Media came to their rescue but by that time the damage had been done. We may spend many more months of fixing the blame but the result would remain a gross shame.

Oscar Wilde said, “You can never be over dressed or over educated.” The trouble in Indian education is that we have limited aspirations and perspiration to raise the levels. Conferences after conferences we talk about the sad state of affairs but have done nothing enough. All the premier education institutes were established almost 4 decades ago and cannot meet even a small fraction of rising demand.
