Gandhi's Death

Gandhi woke up at 3:30 clock Friday, 30 January 1948. He just had a quick six days. He was scheduled to lead an outdoor prayer meeting for peace. He said his morning prayers, and then the whole day letters and meeting with an official of the new Government of India. He was to the prayer meeting by his great nieces, Abha and Manu in a amount of about five hundred, which had been collected.

When he got man of the way for him to bend a lot. He reached the stageand offered a traditional Hindu greeting, as he stretched out his hands and into the air.

The warning fell from a young man from the crowd. Manu tried to restrain him, but he pushed it aside. He pulled a pistol and fired three shots. Within minutes, Gandhi was dead. The assassin was Nathuram Godse, a Hindu extremist who believed it was wrong for Gandhi to associate with Muslims.

Gandhi's last words were "He Ram He Ram" ( "Oh God, oh God)". He died with the name of Godon the lips.

Gandhi's life and death of people torched all over the world. Living His teachings of non-violence, passive resistance and civil disobedience would be well over his life. It would provide the U.S. to influence the American civil rights movement and the leaders of it. Martin Luther King Jr. used Gandhi's teachings to his own people lead to independence. The techniques of nonviolence requires devotion to the idea, does not come easy. You must be overcome to achieve peace, the spreadWorld.

The Role of the Machine Metaphor in Mixed-initiative Organizational Leadership

"Can this marriage be saved?" That's the title of the cover story in the 15th August 2005 issue of BusinessWeek (www.businessweek.com). The article describes the seven years (1998-2005) History of the merger of Daimler and Chrysler Corporation. As I write this, decided to quit the board of the merged company, the government of the current chairman, Juergen Schrempp to. At the end of this year he is with Dieter Zetsche, the current director of operations of the company, as amendedNorth America. The article mentions the following five critical challenges facing the new chairman:

1. Improve product quality and work ethic.

2. Save to win union support for flexible collective agreements.

3. Impress executives at the company, to promote more flexible and productive activities in North America.

4. Develop and implement a coherent strategy of partnership in Asia.

5. Addressing investor pressure, the dissolution of the merger.

The five challengesabove clearly show that more people with it) related problems (eg, social issues, you need to be addressed as technological issues. To embrace the new chairman must be a mixed-initiative style of leadership with a proportionate focus on both the technical and social aspects of the organization for the company to survive. This style requires some knowledge of the science of complexity (ie, the principles for the management of the organization as a complex adaptive system) and the machine metaphor(ie, the routine aspects of modern organizational life, job descriptions, corporate policy, strategic and operational plans, etc.) *. Organizational leaders can not afford to place undue concentration on the machine metaphor in a complex organization.

The Machine Metaphor

The machine metaphor, take an objective view of an organization in which the interactions between the elements of predictable and controllable. Given this premise, organizational leaders, take a mechanisticGiven the organizational management. The mechanistic view sees the organization as a combination of components with relatively simple organizational charts, job descriptions, policies, operational plans, people, etc. The machine metaphor is an organizational management believes that effective management could be realized through the management of all organizational components.

The faulty People Management Mindset

In some cases, this metaphor is wrongly applied to people management.In its opinion column for the twenty-somethings in the 17th July 2005 edition of the Washington Post Career Track Section, Mary Ellen Slayter wrote about it, why resist young professionals moving to the offer to management. "I'm not good at dealing with people" is the reason a 49-year-old lady for her opposition to the offer made available. Pay in the defense of the newly established Department of Homeland Security merit system, said Clay Johnson III, deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget, "TheFederal Government in general rather badly on the management of people "(Washington Post, National News, July 19, 2005).

This attitude of the people are rooted in our social and organizational systems. It is very important for the organizational leadership to know that to apply the device control techniques, the things, not people. Except for the military, we are managing things. We carry people. The role of a manager is to enable a rich and rewarding environment for employees to do their job. AMan is an agent in an organizational context. This agent's behavior is unpredictable. The agent has to interact with other people in a team, whose behavior is unpredictable. The team needs to interact with other teams in a division. Next, we have interdepartmental interactions, cross-departmental interactions among and so on may cause. The result of the interaction is a complex organization, to adapt to its environment must survive, because the organization is aliving system. As Richard T. Pascale, Mark Mille man, and Linda Gioja articulated in their book, Surfing the Edge of Chaos, (Random House, 2000), as a living system that needs to keep the organization on "the laws of nature and the new laws Development of business ".

Whether managing a corner store or a global conglomerate, the fund management / guide always remember that an organization is a socio-technical system and the machine metaphor should be applied only to the technical or machinistic elements.To ensure the survival of the company's leaders must identify and understand those elements of the organizations that exhibit unpredictable behavior, and the elements whose behavior is predictable. You need to master science and the management of complex adaptive systems for the former and the machine metaphor for the latter. These two approaches form the core of a mixed-initiative perspective.

India Needs A President Like Us President

Is it time for India to switch over to presidential form of government?
India calls for political leaders vessel, with a vision that looks across caste, communal and regional politics.
Indian political leadership should focus on good governance, harnessing the skills of people and resources.

Equipped with massive human resource talent and enormous natural resources, India could be much more than that, has achieved what they have achieved so far. But unfortunately India is aLand of contradictions. India has nuclear weapons, warships, big army, a large IT talent and skilled labor force, but India is also room for millions and millions of people who have no access to clean drinking water, adequate health care, adequate housing and social security. India continued when the equality is far away on the basis of merit. In the field of Human Development Index India is still a lot to catch up. India with a billion + population is not even apermanent member of the Security Council, which speaks from the failure of the governance system.

One of the factors responsible for the underdevelopment despite the immense human and natural resources has been decided to administer the system that the country after independence, in which members of the European Parliament election of prime minister in the cabinet head.
The political parties in India are always busy to protect or hijacking the vote banks, little concerned with good governance. Hold on to power is the key toConcerns of political parties rather than good governance and improving the lot of the people great. The system has been damaged so much that only a few competent people enter the political arena.
Lately, things have deteriorated a lot with the coalition governments are the order of the day. The political pressures to remain in power or gain too much power to political parties in elections, unholy alliances, wobbly. Governance has been given a go bye.
ParliamentaryDemocracy does not guarantee to fruits of the population and the poor governance in the following situations resulted
1. Regional policy: India has more at regional level divided today. There are many parties to stir up feelings of regional and vociferously for the further division of the country in ever more countries. The ulterior motive of the regional forces are gaining power. For them, the states are still divided important than improving the living conditions of people. Due to politicalAppropriateness, including the major parties commit to back with regional parties to power in the middle, or do not meet in the States but their ideals.
2. Caste politics: Most of the political parties by the caste card to survive in the selection of candidates for the elections and the appointment of successful candidates of the ministries on the basis of their caste affiliation than any other value. To become a caste is a limit factor in India and the political parties areforced to keep the caste primacy in governance there by making the quality of governance.
3. Politics: Political parties are in work in time for the profit-establish the confidence of the minority. They feel that the game is against the religious card and get a lot easier than looking to earn votes. Since they are regular bank reconciliations of all parties to play the religious card.
4. The conflicting interests of political parties, parliamentary procedure often marand the time is wasted in the end less debate, boycotts, strikes or any question on each.

By switching to presidential form of government the people will not know before hand, in whose hands their fate is safe and may vote on the basis of the merit of the presidential candidates.
With the executive branch in his hand, a suitable and competent person to focus on good governance and to solve the problems of people with a vision of a non-partisan politics plays sword of Damocles "impairedover his head. Can with a proper vision of what a president right direction to provide governance, with regard to caste, regional, religious consideration. Presidential candidates may seek votes on the strength of its poles promises and merit. Parliament is to act as a watchdog and effectively control the abuse of power and ensure good governance. Such a form of governance is freely against the ruling establishment, from its focus on the survival in power and can give the person chosen to ensure goodGovernance. Presidential government gives the choice to choose the president, his cabinet on merit instead of regional, caste or religious basis.
Presidential form of government is well suited for a large country like India and with the right vision of the President of India may soon drive into the society of nations, claiming its rightful place.
How clever elected governors in the states, the State will also promote better governance of charge.
, That the Union and the states canProsperity with the right climate and the right policies, which are the need of the hour. Effective governance system to improve the delivery of aid to the needy and public expenditures more accountable.
Only when India offers affordable health, clean drinking water and must be adequate protection of his many millions and attacks the problem of unemployment effectively it qualifies for the right place in the community of nations and to achieve this, India, to a system of governance Switch ,Bridge across the divide within the caste, communal, regional basis and give the population a feeling of a ness and to improve the lot of the common man.
A serious debate about the necessity of the issue to start. Instead is the balm for a person who suffers daily is not it better to treat the disease, cures the symptoms of the disease. With the right governance may force India to realize fully the use of human resources and natural resource potential and take their rightful place in the community ofNations.

Paying For College - Part 3 - Are You Making the Biggest College Planning Mistake of All?

Their children are headed to school. How will you pay for it all? You're really losing sleep over this question. They are not rich by any stretch of the imagination, but you think you have to provide far too much money for subsidies. Here's a tip: the assumption that cost you big-time.

Not that you're alone. Most parents of middle and beyond believe that they are too much to qualify for aid. And they do not even bother to look. Big mistake.

There are different types offinancial aid offered by colleges and universities. And not all of them "needs-based". Sure, some of them, but there are many who are not. Not a long time.

In fact, there are many "merit" grants based on academic achievement and have absolutely nothing to do with financial need. And no, you do not have to have either little Einstein get it. In fact, with a high GPA counts for less than you think, if they will benefit from the earningsDonations. Depending on the child's abilities and talents is, it is possible to receive Merit Awards with a 3.0 GPA.

There are also special incentives that come directly from some universities. They are in competition for students, believe it or not. So if a college wants their child to win, you may very well be offered to induce a tuition discount on your child to attend to, if he or she is effectively marketed. And no, your income will be little to do.

However, anChance of one of these offers, you must apply for financial aid. Even if you have a high-middle income, high income or high-net-worth families that do not qualify for need-based financial aid are, you still need to apply. Do not worry that you do not qualify probably need-based aid. You qualify for everyone. Even regular financial support is available, no matter what your income. Sure, it will not receive a grant, and it must be repaid, but you can get a loan at a low interestPrices in general for the asking.

If you are new to the college finance game, you probably are not aware of the strategies you can use to increase your chances of getting financial aid. You have probably not even aware that there strategies. And few people will volunteer it.

Obviously there is more on the planning for the university as the only deep in the pocket or applying for loans. Most parents have no idea what kinds of opportunities exist, and can leave thiswide open to get them from the system, that will now work against their interests and they can cost thousands of dollars in savings overwhelmed. And even if you in their shoes.

Except that there is no difference in the income and wealth makes you mount. The planning for college expenses can save you money. You can even pay the government to provide for a good piece of your child's expenses. But only if you plan ahead.
