Hello Srikanth,
Thanks for your inputs. :)
I would love to see India Progressing the way you have explained.
But still their is a long way to go, even now we are purchasing a BISLERI BOTTLE for Rs. 25/- and not raising our voice.
We can change the scenario, and then only be treated as KING or QUEEN.

Hi Everybody,
The issue needs also to be viewed in the socio political conext.
If you have accepted-Democratic Capitalism- a free and liberated economy as a reality and are also a party to the process and benefits of the new economic order (or should I say a Westernised Eco Order?) as most of us contributing to this forum (possibly using micro soft enabled technology) would be.
Than, the issue of asking for fair returns for goods and services produced ethically as per quality and accepted legal norms should not be an issue.
After all market forces of demand and supply would establish the price!!!
The basic debate ought to be on the what should be the socio political order?
Would look forward to further opinions......
Thanks,
Regards,
Sanjib.
P.S-With no malice to the revival of Gandhigiri......and the spirit of honesty truth and courage....

Hi.
A professional in HR should be a role model for others when it comes to values and ethics. An HR professional cannot become successful in the long run if he wants to stand on the platform of dishonesty and unfair practices.The culture of an organization is mostly affected by the HR department. So, ethics and values are very important for the HR fraternity.
It felt good to Know that Archana is involved in sharing moments with the orphans.I always like her posts.Now I have got to know something more about her, which persuades me to say-
"HATS OFF"
You are right by saying that the values of Gandhiji need to be percolated to the young generation. I am also from young generation. If not much, I can assure you that there are young people who give importance to these values.
Values given to us by our culture, our forefathers and our Great Leders cannot become extinct. But ofcourse, these have become endangered species now. Let's try our best to keep good things alive.....

Hey Ashwini,
Thanks a lot for all the praise. I'm flying high in the sky. :wink:
But truly, spending time with these innocent kids gives you a lot of contentment. It is no great thing, anyone of us can take time out to give Love to these kids. :D SO its no great thing.
I agree completely that people like you will surely make good use of vlaues and culture and yes, dont let these things get lost in the concrete jungle and competition.
It is we, every single individual who can make a difference.
Cheers

hi Archana,
That was a great example you have quoted. Why is that you are so particular about "Bisleri". Why not some other brand. you still have the choice to exercise.
i also agree with Sanjib when he said that market prices are governed by the forces of market... specifically demand and supply... there are many other variables which can define alter demand supply equation.
Today we have to read our society as an economic model. we have followed the socialist and non capitalist path for quite some time now and the results are evident to all of us ...
Hope Sanjib all of us understand one the advantages of the democratic capitalism.

hello archna,
good and thoughtful post.
I had a chance to read few pages his book "My experiments with truth".
He set himself as an example by following simplicity, truth, very importantly 'non-violence". He understood very clearly that by using anger, violence, short temper, wrath.....no body can achieve his/her target fully.
Only the non-violence ...will keep you cool, temper, comfortable, and focus the thoughts, efforts towards the goal.
I am sure more people will understood his example for non-violence. Especially the value and committment of MKG will be useful for HR people, whose main target his to deal with "human being" and NOT "machines".

Yes Srikanth,
I agee with you.
As I said, the basic debate ought be on the economic model we adopt.
No doubt there are pitfalls of democratic capitalism,but did socialism really provide the answer?
Having decided on a free(or quasi free) market economic model-we have no option but to be dictated by market forces.
Ofcourse, the aspect of ethics,honesty can at no stage be compromised and HR Professionals defineitely have a role to play in pushing and upholding good corporate ethics and goverance.
I am positve that with growth of good governance ethics in business will prevail. Government machinery may fail us,-but I am sure business enterprise will learn to operate honestly......
(Asking a fair price for a bottle of Bisleri, which a consumer is willingly paying is not dishonest.....!!! Yes, not conforming to standards mentioned on the label is dishonesty.... )
Heres hoping for Ethics and Honesty at work place....
