Identifying Innovation Killers - “That Will Never Work” Excuses

From Mr. Milind Limaye

Author of books
1. Quality Assurance Practices,
2. Software Testing - Principles, Tools and Techniques

There are innovation killers in organizations. One may not notice them easily because one has over the years grown tolerance for them, but an innovator could spot them in a minute. Those can be considered as innovation killers “that will never work” people because the minute someone comes up with a new idea, these individuals are first to offer up reasons why the new idea “will never work.”

All the data, controls and functionality has migrated to extreme mobility at a click away. Even looking at this growth what we cannot ignore is human capital and that’s where the “Security” gap lies.

Indian Brands on Facebook - Facts and Analysis by Radha Giri


ABOUT RADHA GIRI

Radha is a dynamic entrepreneur who is passionate about marketing and technology.


With the growing popularity of social media, it is no wonder that various Indian brands from different industry verticals have joined the bandwagon and have started leveraging (at least) the well known platforms like Facebook and Twitter.

In this post, we will look at 5 Indian brand Facebook pages which, I thought have used the platform quite well and have built a good engaged fan following. These are not necessarily the top 5 brands about which you probably read in every other article. But these are the pages which I have found worthy of note.

 PUNE UNPLUGGED - 3

Mahratta Chamber of Commerce, Industries and Agriculture has been promoting Pune region’s trade, Investment and institutional links with the rest of the world. Over the years we have attracted and promoted ties with Multinational companies in our region.

We would like to intensify our engagement with the Expatriate community in Pune with a series of initiatives aimed at promoting a much greater degree of assimilation and integration among people across nationalities.  We would also like to introduce various facets of Indian culture to the ever growing expatriate community in Pune.

As a major step in this direction, the Chamber had organised PUNE UNPLUGGED in 2009 and 2010.  Going by the response from the expatriate community, we have decided to make it an annual feature. Pune Unplugged 3.0 will be organized during 7-16 October 2011.    To enable maximum number of entrepreneurs and working professionals to attend the events, we have decided to organise the evening events on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.

From Anil Paranjape : Quaint as Quintessentially Quaint Can Be...

I recently celebrated my 47th BD at this homestay.  Thought you might be interested in knowing about this place (or for some of you who are out of India, you are included simply because of a hunch that you might be interested in my writing!).


Calling Atithi Parinay a ‘resort’ (or ‘ray-sort’ as it is often pronounced here!) is like calling Atul Kulkarni ‘The King Shahrukh Khan’!  We lose our soul watching the latter’s movies but find it at Atul’s.  I have used the word ‘movie’ very broadly here.  The King Khan’s movies are attributes of the celluloid (or the pixels): what moves is the film.  At Atul’s movies, on the other hand, what moves is us!  Our emotions, hopes, despairs, our sense of the right and wrong, our entire reference frames!
Unlike watching Shahrukh Khan (whom I have watched once and swore off forever) I actually LIKE going to lavish resorts… once a while.  After getting your soul battered in the daily struggle called life, it feels good to lose it once a while.  But then you go back to your life and find nothing’s changed.  Sometimes, however,  you serendipitously experience something you thought was long lost… and out comes along with it, your soul.  Not the battered one, but the pure, innocent soul that you were born with, that never bruised even in childish altercations, or that which became all lumpy thinking of your first crush.  Or the one that still remembers your parents’ tough love with an unexplainable miss of a few heartbeats.
Atithi Parinay is not easy to find.  Left to myself, plodding the wild west of online stuff, I couldn’t have found it myself.  But the amazing folks atBlack Swann do precisely that.  I have no idea where they find these gems.  It’s so deeply hidden inside coastal Konkan that you feel only locals would know about it.  But that’s exactly the kind of stuff Black Swann finds: helps you travel to faraway places and experience them thru the eyes of the locals.
