Day 413: Nov 04,2010
RnS class had been cancelled. got up, exercised for a bit. Went for BE class and then MCT class. We had session on implementing change.For the case, Maam asked us to play a role play,with me, saradha and udayan as the management team, the whole class ended up being the labor union. we were supposed to negotiate with them for a work issue and get their involvement. The session was funny, with the so called union tryin to blabber something just for t sake of causing argument. udayan was very patient and tried answerin them. saradha had taken a silent vow and remained silent. I chipped in sometimes, making it clear, either work or dont work. Somehow t roleplay ended, with a unique vision statement being made with both the management and the union working together. Still, t vision ended up being like "To be the best company having employee friendly rules with a single minded focus to HAVE THE HIGHEST PAID WORK FORCE. lol ;D what company would try making tat...
Came back and being Diwali next day, didnt do anything much useful, except reading a case. Started with the Afro-American episode.
