the reality of growth
As an organization grows in size, business , turnover & people it should become a balance of consumer, customer and employee centric whilst maintaining its ambition to grow.
There is an organization with a business which has grown faster than the category growth rate, with a growth rate as high as double at which the category has grown over the years thus making it a very successful business in the eyes of the organization. However the balance seems to be shifting, not all is well.
This business started as a people centric business - for the people and by the people in its truest sense. Everyone seemed to have a mission and objective in life - to make a difference to the life of the common man and his family (with certain business objectiveswithout which it cant survive).
However the ambition to grow faster than the category has now led the business into a situation where the business ambitions have higher importance than the people who have helped this business grow to this level.
However over the years and more so off late the people centric nature of the business seem to be a superficial attempt to make the employees believe that yes we are concerned about you!! Attrition rates are at an all time high with attrition being reported across all levels from the lowest to almost the highest level of people. From a business which was a small knit cohesive unit with teams that supported each other, today it is a business where all the employees are working with their one hand covering their royal backside.
Certainly doesnt look like a very enthusiastic place to work right now !!

an old memory
A memory of the Mumbai Central railway station - a few yrs ago..about 8 years i guess...
I was going home after the 1st semester break during engineering. I had come down to Mumbai from Pune to board the Punjab mail to my home in Delhi. I reached Mumbai with my friend from engg and went to my school friends place in Mumbai.
Met him after more than an year but it was still like old times. Had good fun at his place and it was good to see the friendship continue.
He came to drop us at Mumbai central from where we had to board the train and he too wanted to jump onto it..he too wanted to go to Delhi after all someone very important to him lived there..he was as desperate as anyone could be..to board that train with me..but then he knew he couldnt at that point of time...and all i could do was tell him.."dude...dont worry..everythings gonna be ok..just hang in and have faith"...
its been 8 years since then...life has been good to him..and everythings good...and i am happy for him..and for the fact that we still are friends...

Delhi
Nothing describes Delhi better than these words by Ghalib
asked my soul "What is Delhi"
and
asked my soul "What is Delhi"
and
my soul replied "The world is the body, Delhi its life"
