• The Other Side of Goal Setting

  

  The other side of setting goals is something to consider seriously – I have seen people (including myself) getting complacent when they have achieved their objectives. We feel a sense of achievement, we feel safe – even when the target is short of 100%. Which means our shortcomings, limitations, errors, are all tolerated. And we…

• The Other Side of Women Empowerment

  

  Back in the 1980s, when I had just about begun to understand world politics, two strong women were at the helm of their respective parliaments – one, often referred to as the “Iron Lady”, Margaret Thatcher was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and the other, famously known as the “only man in the…

• The Other Side of Superpowers

  

  If you think that you cannot be a superhero, then please watch this video. Because I believe that most of us have been one at some time or the other in our lives.

• The Other Side of Being Single

  

  When I was 8 years old, my brother who was 4 years old at the time, underwent multiple surgeries for a life-threatening condition. We literally pulled him out of almost certain death and it’s a miracle that he came out of it alive. Needless to mention, our lives changed overnight and our childhood was snatched…

• The Other Side of Reading

  

  The first book that I remember reading when I was very young is Alice in Wonderland. It remains my favorite till today but I will talk more about it in another article on “The Other Side of Me (my alter ego)”. The thing is, from Alice in Wonderland, I directly jumped to Great Expectations by…

• The Other Side of Inclusivity

  

  What is inclusivity? It is ensuring that you provide equal opportunities to everyone regardless of their race, gender or physical disabilities, treating them fairly and not marginalizing the minority communities. Nowadays you see a lot of organizations harping about their culture of inclusivity. Many a time, this culture is reduced to a statistic where leaders…

• The Other Side of Festivities

  

  The balcony of my 5th floor apartment opens up to a huge tree which over the years has been supporting a thriving ecosystem of a variety of birds and other life forms. Early in the morning, its branches offer some much-needed respite to a noisy bunch of parrots who avail a few minutes of rest…

• The Other Side of Ethical Dilemmas

  

  In my opinion, there are no such things as “ethical dilemmas” because ethical behavior does not present us with just two choices – either this or that. Being ethical is not that simple – it’s an intertwined mesh of options presented to us with the decisions that we take not falling into the conventional brackets…

• The Other Side of a 70-hour Work Week

  

  Sometime during the early 2000s when I had just embarked on my career journey with the International Service Sector, I was volunteering for a music concert in Bengaluru – an event that was being sponsored by some of the most prestigious MNCs of those times. My work mainly involved distributing pamphlets during the week leading…
