management tips for you....
Be a doer not an expert
Everyone can't be an expert and one doesn't essentially need to be an expert to achieve success. In fact, there is no dearth of experts.
One just needs to put in hard work to bring a positive change.
Be open
No matter how important a position one holds, one must always be open to open to new suggestions. The best form of advice may come from the person working at the lowest stratum of a company.
Always acknowledge
Money is an incentive, no doubt but the biggest form of reward for any worker happens to be acknowledgement. Timely appreciation can go a long way in inspiring someone to do better than the best.
Be a good man manager
One must possess the tact to choose the right people for the right project. Someone who fails miserably at understanding a computer programme may show amazing skills at resolving a complicated puzzle of accounting.
A good man manager knows who is good at what.
Trust your team
One must always place one's faith in the team one heads. The policy of standing by the people and trusting their ideas is an infallible management funda.
No risk, no gain
A good manager is the person who is not scared of taking risks. Any business necessarily entails taking risks. And one who is brave enough to take a chance always succeeds in the ultimate round.
Believe in practice, not theory
One should not get too bogged down by technicalities of management theories. The best management lesson can be learnt through trial and error. Books can provide a guideline only, they can never be the doer's functional steps.
Have common sense
In times of crisis, one must fall back on one's common sense. Relate a business problem to a personal one and ask yourself how you would have solved it in your personal capacity. Use your common sense and a solution is sure to follow.
Each of railway minister's speeches is compulsorily punctuated with humour.
He draws instances from his life while discussing intricate political issues. Here are a few gems from his notebook:
· I work so much. If I don't get all the comforts, I will turn mad.
· Everybody wants to rise to the top position in their respective fields. I would become the PM one day, but not now. I have put the matter in the pending list for now.
· I know some people say I can be funny. But there is always a deeper meaning to what I say. I am a socialist at heart and have the interests of the poor in mind. When people see how I manage to work my way out of tough situations, it gives them hope in their own life.
· If you do not milk the cow fully, it falls sick.

"I will make Bihar's roads as smooth as Hema Malini's cheeks," Lalu one's declared. In fact, Hema Malini calls herself a 'fan' of Lalu Prasad.
· My mother always told me not to handle a buffalo by its tail, but always catch it by its horns. And I have used that lesson in everything in my life, including the Railways.
· Why should I tell you where I am going to get funds from? If I were to do that then all the vested interests would get alerted. You must be aware that railways are full of such elements and my fight is against them.
· Wagon is the bread-earning horse of the Railways. Load it adequately. Make it run and don't stable it.
· If we increase freight rates, the goods will move through the roads and the condition of the roads will become worse.

a tife touching story....

A young man was getting ready to graduate college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box.

Curious, but somewhat disappointed the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible. Angrily, he raised his voice at his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" and stormed out of the house, leaving the holy book. Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business.

He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day.

Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care things. When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart.

He began to search his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he read those words, a car key dropped from an envelope taped behind the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words...PAID IN FULL.How many times do we miss God's blessings because they are not packaged as we expected?
