PHILOSOPHY OF MANAGER TODAY:-
The only Dilemma in Pakistan is that we are not poor in Resources; but poor in Effective Managers, Entrepreneurs & Leaders. So, Lets Make a Difference. Once it was merely a dream; today, it is a tangible reality, YES! The philosophy of Manager Today is: 'Don't curse the darkness, light a candle'.
The whole concept of Manager Today lies in three words:
CPD ... Continuous Professional Development.
This can be explained with the help of a parable.
Once there was a man walking along a beach; the sun was shining and it was a beautiful day. Off in the distance, he could see a person going back and forth between the surf’s edge and the beach. Back and forth this person went. As the man ap proached, he could see that there were hundreds of starfish stranded on the sand as a result of the natural action of the tides.
The man was stuck by the apparent futility of the task. There were far too many starfish. Many of them were sure to perish. As he approached the person continued the task of picking up starfish; one by one and throwing them into the surf.
As he came up to the person he said: you must be crazy. There are thousands of miles of beach covered with starfish. You can’t possibly make a difference. The person looked at the man; stooped down and picked up one more starfish and threw it back into the ocean. He turned back to the man and said: 'It surely made a difference to that one!'
Now, it is the right time to make a strong pledge to come out from the state of mind of hopelessness & helplessness, stress & depression, contradictions & controversies, paradoxes & dichotomies and never say ‘Why even try’ rather say ‘I Can & I Will ’ Make a difference in the life of one person. We need to focus today on changing the hearts and mindsets of ourselves first and then others.
