Imagine a company where people are excited about coming to work and giving their best efforts every day. In this innovative and engrossing business parable, harry Paul and Ross Reck show managers at all levels how they can immediately and easily increase productivity by tapping into the discretionary effort of the people who work for them. Starting from the most basic aspect of business reality - that people intentionally regulate the amount of effort they put into their jobs based upon how they feel they re being treated - authors point out that the most important part of the job of every manager, team leader, supervisor and executive is to treat people in such a way that they become excited about applying all their discretionary effort toward performing their jobs.  At the book s center is the story of Nancy Kim, a human resources director at a magazine that is struggling with all the problems associated with unhappy employees - low productivity and morale along with high absenteeism and turnover. After she openly challenges the CEO s new management-by-the-numbers system, she s charged with turning the situation around immediately. Filled with real-world studies, Destination Work! shows anyone how to turn the workplace into a destination- a place where working hard feels like hardly working because it s engaging, enjoyable and fulfilling.

It is significant that the stories of Vishnu rose to prominence after the rise of Buddhism. Prior to that, Hinduism was the religion of the elite-based complex rituals known as yagna and esoteric speculations captured in texts known as the Aranyakas and the Upanishads. These seemed very distant to the common man who focused on fertility rituals, worship of plants and animals and nature. To help readers unravel the secrets of Vishnu, the chapters have been arranged as below: The first chapter focuses on how gender is used to explain fundamental metaphysical concepts integral to Hinduism. The second chapter discusses the difference between man and animal. The third and fourth chapters focus on the Devas and the Asuras, both of whom are unhappy, as one struggles with insecurity and the other with Ambition.

The world s greatest epic - from India s epic storyteller, author of the internationally- acclaimed Ramayana and Krishna Coriolis series  The Forest of Stories, Book One in Ashok Banker s long- awaited MBA Series, takes us deep into the haunted jungle of Naimisha-van. Here, at the ashram of Kulapati Shaunaka, a dusty traveller arrives with sad tidings: Maharishi Krishna Dweipayana Vyasa has passed on. Yet the great collator of the Vedas has left behind a fabulous legacy, the epic narrative poem called Maha Bharata. At the urging of the ashramites, the traveller Suta begins to recite the great composition, starting with the incredible creation myths and tales of gods and giants, snake- mothers and gargantuan eagles. And as the night wears on and the tale grows darker, he senses the presence of countless ghostly beings in the shadows beyond the flickering oil-lamps, the restless souls of the many millions butchered in the climactic war that ended the great tale itself, gathering now to hear the epic saga that led eventually to their destruction and the decimation of the Kuru Bharata race.  Based on the original Sanskrit shlokas with vivid action-packed narration and descriptions, this sampoorn Mahabharata retelling brings to life all the magic and majesty, wonders and violence of the world s greatest epic..

I think I first fell in love with India and its food in Grandma's Kitchen. It was a magical place. It opened every day with the first light of dawn. Sounds came in cosy, familiar sequences. I lay in bed, half awakened by the whispers of Grandma's Chanderi sari and the sweet fragrance of her jasmine hair oil; by keys clunking and the kitchen door opening with a quiet creak; by the tinkle of cups and saucers, the gurgle of milk, the slurring of tea leaves against a sieve. Cooking started in earnest only after the sacred ritual of tea. The house resounded with the jangle of bangles of Grandma's arms as she flitted from one pot to another, soothing, coaxing and nudging nature's bounty into its proper place.
