New times, new roles: redefining yourself

Even a comparatively poor country like Nepal is getting into the harsh realities of a burstling economy.  There was a time when only the poor had to work heavily to be able to survive.  Today even the rich and the middle class are working as much as they can.  Why?  It is no longer because…

Negative Attitude: your own nemesis

You think you have done nothing wrong.  You have done the best you could.  Because people have been saying you should communicate well, you have tried to be as polite as was possible.  Yet you get negative comments or feedbacks from others.  From my consulting work, i have come to the conclusion that is phenomenon…

Living in the Borderline

Life of a management consultant is always on the borderline of super business and abosolute inaction.  For several months you are so busy, you are there saving companies.  Then suddenly you complete your job and it will be a while before you get the next assignment.  Office workers and business men relish on the fact…

Salesmanship: the secret

I had to train college students on salesmanship.  But they took it like a normal subject like accounts or anthropology.  I wanted them to take it more seriously than that.  So i taught them in a different way.  I asked them: 1.  Did you ever fall in love? 2.  Do you wish you could love…
