Memoir

Memoir

It was a very cold evening in the month of December. Dehradoon is the perfect destination for settling the turbulence of mind. Of course the Doon valley is the spectacular place in the world. Temperature was shivering cold and fair enough to put liveliness into your cold body. Some people describe it as natural calamity and others describes it as wonders of nature.

I am one of those who believes that this phenomenon as wonders of nature. It was our inner strength which keeps us alive. Calamities are meant to test our strengths.

Twinkling light of Mussoorie adding more charms to Dehradoon. These lights always invites me to enjoy the extravagant peace of mountain.     

Massiveness of massive mountains and profundity of deep valleys always accommodate you with love and care. As sun sets, these lights rise, like sun rises in morning triumph over darkness. If you were pragmatic you would have felt that there were no nights. 

I was quite fortunate because my house was juxtaposed to witness this phenomenon. I felt that winter is specking to me in silence. The memories of coldness will always keep me warm. I live in that moment. May be larger than life.    

It was beginning of virtuous cycle and it is!

Retention

Retention 

I am delighted to share views on retention tools. I have been discussing this topic among HR fraternity from last five years and found following ways of retaining people in the organization. Nonetheless retention is long term process which has to be completed in phased manner to consolidate attrition in your organisation.

1) Recruitment :-

Retention always starts with recruiting right people who will keep their journey along with organisational journey with intact alignments. And for recruiting right people we must have precise recruitment process with defined position and organisation specific competencies. This is the only point where we can curb the attrition. Some anonymous rightly said ‘ retention tools are antidote for attrition and well defined and executed recruitment practices would act as vaccines.   

2) Induction :-

Induction activity will help to acclimatized new incumbent with organisation. This is one of the activity which make people aware about organisation and its purpose of existence. This is where employee engagement starts. This is where path meets. Similarly people want to learn and grow. This will help them to meet their personal and professional objective. T and D is playing pivotal role in retention.  

3) HR Policies :-

Good HR Practices- Transparent well defined practices motivates employees and differentiate one organisation from another. People practices are key factor for health of organisation. Unique and awesome HR practices should became talk of the town. GHRP must also helps in attracting talent. 

4) R and R :-

Why do people want to work for organisation? Money? Not exactly. People want to contribute. Contribute towards organisations mission and vision. In return they expect recognition for their contribution. Effective rewards and recognition programs are giving the competitive advantage. Rewarded, recognized  and happy employee will not think about leaving the organisation.    

5) Career Path :-

What next? What would be the next orbital for growth? Can I see the dreams with the organisation? Where I will reach after excellence?

Career succession plan is giving direction to careers of people. Well defined, structured and transparent CSP is one of the retention tool.

6) Culture :-

People want to survive in virtuous environment where progressive and future things are discussed. Culture enables people to perform. It establishes linkage between job and its impact on surrounding and society. The impact... impact on society.

Sweeney Todd

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Once again Johnny Depp has proved his assets. Johnny Depp and Tim Burton, the actor and director pair is not more than fist. Fist to an audience, the millions of audience all across the word. It take courage to perform such character. Well acting is all about reacting; if that is all true this dearly need guts to perform such character.

Sweeney Todd is historical fictional character first appear in story titled The Spring of Perils in 1847. Till this time Sweeney Todd character has appeared in six movies.  Its agonized story of a barber who is on task of revenge. The movie covers the aspect of love, lust, injustice, betrayal, crime. This is poetical movie. 

  

Johney Depp is really ‘certified great actor'.     

Must watch movie J

Ed Wood

Ed Wood

Johny Depp once again proved his stone in Tim Burton's 'Ed Wood'.

Ed Wood Jr was an American actor, director, writer author and producer born on 10th October 1924.

He had filmed 80 movies in his lifetime almost all of then were failures. 

In 1992, Rudolph Grey's biography Nightmare of Ecstasy  has reaches to masses and explored the various dimensions of Ed Wood life. This has also leads to Tim Burton which in fact forced him to screen Ed Wood in 1994.

In 1980 Ed Wood has been awarded a Golden Turkey Award as Worst Director of all Time. 

Throughout his life Ed Wood  tried to make something so memorable but could not succeeded on all stances and leads other succeed on other terms. He was born to fail but didn’t give up his effort to achieve the desired to achieve. Failure never bends the living spirit of Ed Wood. Johnny’s performance has done the real justice the character of ED WOOD. His sebastian performance in movie poured the zeal into many who has vanishes their fuel of zeal. And this will keep them to burn their powder till end. The movie has won 2 Academy Awards. Johnny Depp is ‘certified great actor’. My learning 'your work would never be un-notice and if so it will reincarnate in other era'

Highly recommended movie.
