Why do people compare Apples and Oranges ? by Praseed Pai
Most Software companies in Kerala has got a shallow hierarchy and emphasis is on technical aspects of Software engineering. People who started their career and stayed back are mostly satisfied lot. In Contrast , Companies from Bangalore , Chennai and Hyderabad are build with scale in mind. Their emphasis is on Business Continuity. By reducing so called “Unit of Work Per Employee”, they reduce risks in operations. Both set has got their own world views shaped by their respective context. The session talks about the impedance mismatch between a Metro Software professional and a Kerala Software professional.

Public Relations – Let the world know about you
by Richy D Alexander
We often get asked what is a successful public relations program? What does it cost? How long do I need to do it? Why do my competitors always get in the papers? A public relations (PR) strategy may play a key role in an organization’s promotional strategy. A planned approach to leveraging public relations opportunities can be just as important as advertising and sales promotions. Public relations is one of the most effective methods to communicate and relate to the market. It is powerful and, once things are in motion, it is the most cost effective of all promotional activities. The success of well executed PR plans can be seen through several organizations that have made it a central focus of their promotional strategy. Lets share the idea of a successful PR See you on May 8th.

Wind chimes

13 Mar

 

 

In this deserted church…

on this old,wooden bench

aside the large,black cross

I sat,lamenting..

over a lost dream!

Stillness and silence

makes me depressed..

All I could hear is

the distant sound …

of the chimes…!

‘the wind chimes’..
