A small break from the Satyam journey here and we turn up towards the present situation in Jammu and Kashmir. The issue of a Central University. With great fanfare two years back govt. of India announced an IIM to be set up in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. This move was an apt one which would have put the state of Jammu and Kashmir on the national and corporate level obviously for the good reasons. An IIM is a brand that would have served the state in many ways. The employment generation would have a direct impact and state would have benefitted directly. The people of Kashmir which have over the years complained of so called national bias and hatred would have come got vitalized by this apex institution. The ailing industrial sector might have also benefitted from it as well since IIM not only provides the education but also acts as the consulting media. We have the examples of cities like Ahmadabad, Bangalore, and Kolkata where the development got a boost because of these instituti...

There had not been even a single moment during my stay in Satyam when I felt like leaving the job as had been happening around me with my SIMSR batchmates . Frankly speaking the challenges had been absolute endearing so far. In my quest for success I met many leaders but a name worth mentioning here is that of Ramakrishna Jagadishan or just Ramki Sir. The Ramki-Factor in my career We were working on a proposal when I got the opportunity of meeting Ramki Sir. We were battling with the deadlines and about to call it a day for the proposal, when someone stormed into the cabin. The brisk walk , the baritone and the impeccable approach just dominated the next part of discussions. Such was the influence of Ramki sir that within few minutes of the conferencing we had chalked out the strategy to meet the deadline. Clearly the intensity ran so high that we decided to finish off the work before the morning even if it meant staying throughout the night in the office. I was totally charged up wit...

After a short break I am back with my experiences in Satyam. With no idea of where I will be putting up I landed up in Pune and 8th August was the day. I went straight to Jai’s place (Jai was my roommate in SIMSR and probably my respect for him emanated from the feeling that I always treated him as my elder bro’) .with utmost pain I spent couple of days when I came to know about the Satyam’s guesthouse facility and within no time I shifted to this place near Sancheti hospital. The place was a breather for me as it was close to my office on Bund garden road. The office at Bund Garden was a landmark in itself and the location made it happening place to be around. 3rd floor of the building was the reporting place for me and Mukund Sir the reporting manager. Such was my enthu level that I quickly jumped into the cabin of another Mukund Sir who retorted telling me that he was not the right person. After some time of waiting I finally met my reporting manager. A brief intro session happened ...

SIMSR was the best thing to have happened in my life. It armed me with the much needed killer instinct to survive in this cut throat competition. The faculty the students the environment all propelled and inspires you to achieve the best in the life and probably it was this nurturing that I landed into one of the best and finest IT houses of India- Satyam: the name which itself stands for truth. Joining day @ Satyam After lot of joining delays I finally got the mailer to join in Hyderabad- 1st August 2007 being the date, Mashallah being the reporting place. Satyam being the first job for me i was filled with lot of enthusiasm. I landed at the campus with some 20 odd people waiting for their formalities to be completed. Slowly and steadily crowd started building their and i could see some 50 plus MTs waiting for their turn to get into Satyam. What followed was beginning of a day long process full of joining formalities, verification of the documents and finally issuance of the ID cards....

A new post after exactly two and a half years now. The things have changed during these two years. Although i graduated in terms of my professional skills but somewhere I lost myself. Somewhere I lost my kindness towards emotions and this got replaced with practicality and to be more precise shrewdness. The two years in Satyam remain to be the best part after my college days and i will cherish the moments for ever. Satyam taught me to be sincere and I developed my knack towards business. The result was a nice blend of some good qualities that will always guide me to the success. But as the things have changed I have now moved out of the private sector and into more secure public sector. Dont know whether i will adapt to it but as the post says Change is the only permanent thing in this world...So be it Will discuss about my experiences at Satyam in the next few posts

As the days pass by It makes me weep and cry I go on thinking Where have those days gone? The morning starting with your hi The day ending with a cute bye I question myself Where did I go wrong? The never ending chat U calling me a spoiled brat I revive those memories But where have those memories gone? You messaging me the most Calling you my best dost I think of those moments Where have those moments gone? You looking into my eyes Blushing with loads of smile I cherish all those glares But where have those glares gone? Your smiling face Like water flowing in a lake I wonder in darkness Where have those smiles gone? I know it is my mistake Never believed in give and take I sob in deep silence Will those moments be back in my presence? Everyday I live by faith Adoring times will be in shape God give me courage and hope To see her again in my globe
