Even in the logistics they were not clear. * They have the knowledge but they don’t have wisdom to implement things correctly So it was happened because of following reasons 1) Lack of co-ordination and collaboration between Tushar, ram, roonie and newly employed. 2) Tushar and ram& kiran didn’t share their tacit knowledge to new workers 3) they didn’t tell about the customer interests to new employees 53.

...taken in self-interest? Jawaban: Kepentingan merupakan ketika seorang individu membuat keputusan yang sesuai dengan kepentingan mereka sendiri. Dalam cerita kita dapat menemukan minat Kiran untuk menjadi master bir dan belajar tentang enzymes serta dan membuat bisnis farmasi. 2. Whose decisions turned out to be in the social interest? Social Interest merupakan sebuah pilihan yang dibuat untuk masyarakat manfaat secara keseluruhan. Dalam kehidupan, kita dapat melihat orang-orang peduli terhadap orang-orang lain yang berada di lingkungan sosialnya. Setiap tindakan yang baik dibuat untuk kepentingan sosial di dalam masyarakat. Yang bagus dalam minat sosial adalah bahwa hal ini dapat diperoleh oleh para pembuat keputusan individu yang bertindak untuk kepentingan mereka sendiri. Adam smith menyebut proses ini sebagai "invisible hand" atau tangan tak terlihat. Dalam cerita ini kita dapat menemukan kepentingan sosial ketika dia dipekerjakan pekerja berpendidikan yang mencintai pekerjaan mereka dan kondisi hidup yang sesuai dengan upah mereka. Kiran berbagi kekayaannya dengan membuka pusat pengobatan kanker untuk membantu ribuan pasien yang miskin dan menciptakan skema asuransi kesehatan. Kiran bermain tangan tak terlihat 3. Did any of the decision harm the social interest? Ketika Kiran dipecat, pekerja menggantikan pekerjaan mereka dengan mempekerjakan sejumlah kecil pekerja berpendidikan.

...students the newest of information and keep themselves updated, only then can they help their student to do so. With the growing economical changes and job opportunities students feel that higher education had become more and more important. With a wide range of students graduating and tough competition, there is comparatively less job opportunities in the job market. Getting a job after graduation is easier stated than done. (Kiran Mirchandani, 2008). At one of my previous job I remember one of my colleagues mentioned that he had received over 150 applications for an assistant position within 3 hours after the job was posted. Employers need to weed out good applicants from dozens of students that apply for the same job. Distinguishing by degree is a quick and simple way of doing that. (Kiran Mirchandani, 2008). Schooling system has changed with the changing economy. The expectations and routines that constitute the hidden curriculum in terms of both organizational and social characteristics of schooling are heavily influenced by work. (Kiran Mirchandani, 2008) Newest editions of books, modern equipments, current illustrations and situations, cases and assignments etc are a few things that Canadian schools have adopted to provide students the exposure that they need.

...9 -9 1 1 -4 1 2 REV: MAY 28, 2012 Assessing a Company’s Future Financial Health Assessing the long-term financial health of a company is an important task for management as it formulates goals and strategies and for outsiders as they consider the extension of credit, long-term supplier agreements, or an investment in a company’s equity. History abounds with examples of companies that embarked on overly ambitious programs and subsequently discovered that their portfolios of programs could not be financed on acceptable terms. The outcome was frequently the abandonment of programs mid-stream at considerable financial, organizational, and human cost. It is the responsibility of management to anticipate a future imbalance in the corporate financial system before its severity is reflected in the financials, and to consider corrective action before both time and money are exhausted. The avoidance of bankruptcy is an insufficient standard. Management must ensure the continuity of the flow of funds to all of its strategically important programs, even in periods of adversity. Figure A provides a conceptualization of the corporate financial system, with a suggested step-bystep process to assess whether it will remain in balance over the ensuing 3 to 5 years. The remainder of this note discusses each of the steps in the process and then provides an exercise on the various financial measures that are useful as part of the analysis. The final section of the note demonstrates ...

...Derived inspiration for them. Thought about them much later. Wondered how the achiever did it. Told ourselves, if they can, so can we. I know I have, I am sure most of you have too. But, rarely comes a book where achievers talk about the times when they failed. And, miserably. Abhinav Bindra, Anu Aga, Madhur Bhandarkar, Narayanan Vaghul, Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, Captain Gopinath, Sabysachi Mukherjee, Narayana Murthy, Dr Prathap C Reddy, Sunil Alagh, Subhash Ghai, Ajit Gulabchand, Sminu Jindal, William Bissekk, Sanjeev Goenka and Shankar Sharma - each an example in him(her)self in being an achiever on the global scene, yet they have failed miserably in what they do, at some point of their lives. Why did they fail? What happened? There is always a reason, and in Why I Failed: Lessons from Leaders, these people talk about the same. India was ecstatic when Bindra won the Olympic medal. And equally bitter when he didn't. The same person who was showered with bouquets was now being thrown brickbats. What no one thought of was, why? Why did he drop out so soon? Bindra analyzes and tells us why - I was not desperate enough to win. Courageous! When Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw was setting up Biocon from scratch, it...

What was so compelling about the Starbucks value proposition? What brand image did Starbucks develop during this period? Starbucks initially used an aggressive generic strategy of focus to take advantage of this small portion of the overall coffee market and eventually transitioned into a strategy of differentiation. The first factor which aided their success was their first mover advantage. Starbucks’ aggressive expansion plan was more ambitious than any other specialty coffee retailer. In the first year of their expansion, fiscal year 1988, Starbucks more than doubled the 11 base stores they operated by opening 15 new stores in the Pacific Northwest. From there, they proceeded to open 20 stores in 1989, 30 stores in 1990, 32 stores in 1991 and 53 stores in 1992, for a total of 150 stores in a five-year period. In order to ensure a reputation for quality and customer service Starbucks, did not adopt franchising, instead maintaining company control of all new stores. Throughout the 1990s the proportion of the workforce who...
