Jul 2, 2017 Pressure is not stress. But adding some aspects like rumination, attaching negative emotion to mind can be converted to STRESS. Business is all about LEADERSHIP QUALITY planning and managing, which can be affected by some short term process with negative fallout. Diminishing productivity and increase in coronary problems and suppressed immune functioning may be the output of having too much stress. Eliminating stress by implementing the following techniques is sure to bring about an immense change: 1.Removing “waking sleep”:-This is the phase where there is a lack of concentration. The mind wanders and it is in a state commonly stated as “Day Dreaming”. This effects both your time and energy. Break out of it by doing some interesting physical activity clap your hands, and move your body or connect with your senses by noticing what you can hear, see, smell, taste, and feel. The idea is to reconnect with the world. 2.Controlling your Attention:- Just try to be in yourself, focusing on your goals or you can do this by drawing a circle on a page, and writing down all of the things you can control or influence inside of it and all of the things you cannot outside of it. 3.Bringing Leadership Ideals:- It is the most essential key to have faith and believe in yourself that you are capable to overcome the obstacles and bring about a change. Lead your mind to take control of the situation as leaders are characterized by optimism and positive ideals. Business is all about doing courageous things. Whatever may be the outcome, failure or success, pressure must not be taken. Personal expansion is one of the greatest gifts that is essential for succeeding in your business. In place of taking pressure take and accept the challenge and bless each challenge as it makes you wiser! If human consciousness pays enough attention to something there is nothing in universe which will not open its doors.

"Capital isn't so important in business. Experience isn't so important. You can get both these things. What is important is ideas. If you have ideas, you have the main asset you need, and there isn't any limit to what you can do with your business and your life." Mr. Mohan Kumar filled with new and intriguing ideas influenced us to know about his ideas and his walk throughout his journey. Interviewer: Mr. Mohan, what does your company actually deals with? Mr. Mohan: I represent this company and am the founder of the company called iAccept Softwares. It is an IT product company creating products which are collaborative in nature. All our platforms enable collaboration between companieswho may also be competitors, which is our unique feature. We have 3 platforms which are; 1. iAccept-which is used before an employer hires an employee, 2. Thijori- we call it as Vault on the Cloud that is used to manage queries of employers with respect to the employees who have left the organization, 3. The most important is Pehechano which is a social initiative and deals with safety of the citizens created to map out multiple identities of an individual. Interviewer: Could you brief us a little about the platform Pehechano? Mr. Mohan: It is basically a mobile application though freely available and does not intrude with 3rd party advertisements.Companies send a short message regarding the identity of the technician who would attend their clients, to ensure the safety of the person opening the door. Companies are motivated to use it to avoid fraudulent activities and embarrassment. It is a crowd sourced platform for citizen’s safety. Interviewer: What ignited the spark in you to initiate this business venture? Mr. Mohan: There was a theft at one of the NGOs and on investigation it was found that a security guard, who had left his job about 6 months ago, was the culprit. During investigation, we also realized that the complete details of the said security guard were not available. This was because the 3rd party agency which had deputed the person had not given all the details. The records were also not clear and this person who had a good knowledge about the place committed the crime. It was then that it occurred to us, that this same person might still be employed with some other institution locally, and they may not be aware of his background. He might even be employed, not as a security guard, but could be practicing some other vocation. And that made us realize that it would be helpful for the society to build such a platform to exchange critical information. And this information is stored safely and is provided to only people, who are in need of such information about a particular person who is being hired. And there have been many such cases which motivated us even more for the launch of this platform. Interviewer: What did you learn from the failures, if they were any? Mr. Mohan: As an entrepreneur, we generally boot strap &under-capitalize the company which means we are very optimistic in terms of the revenue. These are things that one should be careful before starting an enterprise. Selection of initial team is also very important. The revenue may or may not come at the time you are expecting it, so one should be prepared for the same and plan for cash flows. For the Pehechano platform, after creating and developing it, we realized it might not always be possible to force someone to download and use it. That is when we created this URL API plug in. But the positive aspect of using the application is that the user can merge all the different type of visitors they encounter. Interviewer: What are the main principles you follow to maintain a healthy customer and employee relationship? Mr. Mohan: In terms of our employees, we provide them with a lot of freedom and we do not actually look over their shoulder. The philosophy of the company is that we are employing adults and people are responsible for their own actions. Since they are answerable for their actions, they are able to perform better and start engaging in the activities themselves. We give them a lot of freedom for learning and experimenting and provide them with end to end exposure. Interviewer: How would advice entrepreneurs coming up with new ideas? Mr. Mohan: If somebody is really passionate about providing a solution or they really feel that they are able to solve a real life problem then the budding entrepreneur will be successful, if not today but tomorrow. Patience and passion drives the person in the right direction. Sometimes a productthat is very appealing but is not solving a real life problem, is bound to fail in the long run.

Jul 1,2017 As the demand of workplace keeps rising, many people respond it by putting in ever longer hours, which certainly burnout the costs of both the organization and employee. We have unequal levels of energy at a particular period of time throughout the day. One of the best ways to maximize job performance in the face of increasing demand and competition is just by focussing on energy management. Most of the people would surely say that they are or are not a morning person. As for night owls, the more time they had after a sunset to get things done in better and effective manner. There is no such thing like time management. There is only energy management we are doing in a given period of time. The key is to find different ways to manage your activity and priorities. As the energy management is the only mantra of success.​Unlike time, your energy capacity is something which you can increase and renew in order to meet the challenges and difficulties a person faces in his daily life. A single email or a single conversation can break your focus or completely rearrange the priority of the day you have decided. But by managing your energy, you can give your best performance to whatever activity or task you are doing. You can achieve the result that is far superior to the incremental gain you might get from time management technique. But now the question arises that “How one can manage his energy” the answer for this will definitely help you to increase your productivity if you will follow it... 1.Get enough rest: As a new business owner, it is seductive to see sleep as an optional. Burning the midnight oil might be just what’s needed to get your business launched in the early days, but it is not a long-term solution. Lack of sleep can have a negative impact on your mind as well as on your body. It reduces your ability to concentrate and make a good decision. As an entrepreneur you want a business that supports you, so your health needs to be your first priority which increases your energy to do the task more confidently and easily. 2.Cut down on junk foods: unless the new business is food related, most of the entrepreneurs give little thought to what they are eating. The problem is that they mostly depend on junk food which makes their energy tank run empty. If you eat healthy food it will help you to increase your energy level both mentally as well as physically by which you can work with more enthusiasm. 3.Exercise: It might sound awkward to suggest entrepreneurs to stop working for an hour a day in order to get sweaty in the gym. But that 1 hour you give for your body increases your energy, productivity, creativity to a significant level. It helps you to control your mental stress level and gives you feel good factor. 4.Always think about your goals: Sometimes a person feels tired and de-motivated from doing daily office work. At this moment your mindset can help you to feel good and increases your energy. When you feel like you have stuck in your business it’s always helpful to remember why you started out on the path of an entrepreneur and answer for might be like that you want to make your life better and want to achieve some good position which increases your value in the market and help to make yourself proud. This type of self-motivation always helps to energize you. Tony Schwartz said that “To be a consistently high performer, you have to manage your energy not your time”.

Jun 30, 2017 The phenomena of employee satisfaction is integral to an organization and its objectives. The managers of their respective firms are well aware of this and its one of the decisive and crucial aspect of their profession. To assist and recognize the paramount procedures of management and the reason they function effectively, Gallup, Inc. steered and introspected statistical surveys with managers and employees and eventually figured out what motivates an employee to function. Obviously the supreme and ostensible evaluations are that happy employees are most productive, being productive denotes their dedication towards their job and their optimistic behavior that makes them less likely to quit the job, the employees resilience itself saves judicious time and money for the manager Furthermore employees with higher work satisfaction are 27% more consistent than dissatisfied employees, a manager or an organization would prefer such employees as to unproductive subordinates as its just waste of the organizations resources and assets The statistics also reveals that dissatisfied and dejected employees are 31% more vulnerable of quitting their jobs, replacing them could be a tedious and a time consuming task for a firm, specifically if the position entails a recruitment with specific set of skills, for instance if a sports journalist quits his or her job it’s a humongous task for a firm to hire a recruiter with that precise talent and skills. Apparently its and amazing fact that satisfied employees are less vulnerable to calamities while on work, there are many jobs that demand extreme amount of physicality from the employees, for instance working for a shipping company or a truck loading firm, workers who enjoy their work are less vulnerable to loss of concentration and focus, as they are more vigilant to their responsibilities. Apparently Gallup reveled that dissatisfied and disengaged employees suffer 62% frequent injuries than the satisfied employees. To conclude one can claim that it’s equally imperative and beneficial for both the company and its employees to create a productive work atmosphere that promotes dedication and excellence

The prerequisite of being an entrepreneur is to be creative. By definition an entrepreneur is a person who sets up a business or businesses, taking on financial risks in the hope of profit. Being creative is subjective. A few ways of channelizing one’s creativity can be: Playing it ‘unsafe’, Entrepreneurs take risk at the very beginning when they decide to start something new. They must carry forward their risk taking attitude in taking future decisions for their firm. Bravery differs from over confidence. In the path of risk taking entrepreneurs must make sure they do not make any hasty decisions jeopardizing the future of their firm. There are times when the firm faces option that may be too risky, playing safe in such situations is not a weakness but a pragmatic solution. Fix problems instead of pointing them. Unlike a business establishment where problems are pointed out to other departments and complaints are made frequently, a startup does not have several departments and executives to report and correct problems. In a start-up, entrepreneurs have to find report and correct the problems on their own. They cannot rely on anyone else to make assessments or judgments. Therefore their task becomes even more difficult since they do not have the privilege of second opinion.

Jun 28, 2017 A virtual employee is someone employed to work for you but can be located thousands of miles away from you. They are not explicitly a part of the office, but definitely a part of the workforce. The services provided by the employee are realized through the use of communication technology. Harnessed with the improved communicative technology you can now make use of global talent, overcoming the geographical and other accessibility barriers. A virtual employee is not a freelancer; a freelancer can never be an employee because they don’t work for you full-time or exclusively. A virtual employee on the other hand can work for you remotely and exclusively as a dedicated part of your team without juggling other assignments. A freelancer and virtual employee however, are same in terms of how cheaply they are available to the firms. Assigning work to virtual employees does not amount to outsourcing of the work. Although it is technically outside the office, but outsourcing technically is to ‘obtain (goods or a service) by contract from an outside supplier’ and virtual employees are not ‘outside the firm’ as a separate entity, they are very much a part of the firm like regular employees, they are just not ‘present’ in the office However, there lies a drawback in this concept. With the availability of global talent at your fingertip and the option to hire people from all around the world, the local talent may get neglected.
