Jasmine In Metro

  Jasmine in the Metro By Sarita Sharda Outside the bustling Rajiv Chowk Metro Station—amid the cacophony of hawkers, the hum of footsteps, and the metallic screech of trains—sits Rajjo, a florist with a modest basket of jasmine gajras.

Interpersonal skills and Indian Mythology

  Interpersonal Skills and Indian Mythology: Lessons for the Modern Workplace In a bustling corporate boardroom, tensions simmered as two senior executives clashed over their strategic approach. The project at hand was critical, with looming deadlines and mounting pressure, yet progress had stalled. A seasoned CEO, observing the discord, calmly addressed the room. Instead of offering direct solutions, he shared a story from ancient Indian wisdom that would shift their perspectives. "Back in the Vedic Era," he began, "leaders weren’t just strategists; they were mentors, guiding their people through more than just tasks—they guided through values, communication, and respect. Take the example of Guru Brihaspati, the revered teacher of the gods. His guidance wasn’t about asserting power; it was about understanding, listening, and fostering unity.
