Reality is it the same for all

I have had this in my mind for almost 10years now but I am writing because I read something on http://alternative-theory.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html which sounded very similar.

Do all human beings see the same thing or what we see form totally different images in the brain of one from one person to another.

Say I see a square box but some other person sees it as round but the way he describe it as a square bcoz it depends on the way our mind was conditioned from birth is. I know it sounds a bit weird but it is possible. Though there are other senses that might confirm it. It might not be true for the visual observation but for sound and smell it very much possible.

I think i should sleep.

Its has been different?

Bollywood has seen many stars come and go. Some of them even pulling through a comeback but most of the comebacks have been in the form of an hero/heroine's father (Bollywood has hero's in general not lead actors), as a villain in some cases. But Big B has been able to do which no other actor has done till date he has been able to pull through with a hero's role and that too with an applaud from the audience. This gives him another generation of fans. Most of the top stars have their fans among people who followed them to their stardom and then slowly saw them fade to obscurity of one role a year and few dialogues too deliver. But with Big B it has been different he has been able to not only play a protagonist but also has taken the courage to do roles which no other actor ever dared of. Thus the new audience the ones in their teens will also recognize with him as they have seen him grow. His second inning is even more interesting and entertaining than the first one. Wish him good luck.

MBA Placements 2007

The stories of fantastic placements of MBAs are running on media these days. The salaries being Quoted are just above the roof. The Category A colleges are 10+ domestic, Grade B 8+, Grade C 6+ lacs per annum. Now what is driving these high salaries, I think the following five factors-

1. The profile of people doing MBA is improving. More and more ppl with experience are doing MBA and they are looking at top 15 colleges depending on their experience quality. Thus the input talent in these MBA Institute is going up. The ppl fresh out of these colleges are capable of taking more responsibilities. They all already aware of the corporate environment. The freshers in these colleges also get a more professional environment improving their quality or attitude toward work. Thus for this more "ready to take it" resource companies are ready to pay more.

2. The already existing MBAs from top institutes who joined IBanks, consultancies abroad in the past few years have been delivering good results at par with the MBA Grads BSchools abroad. This has given them more confidence grads thus they have increased their Intake from Indian Schools. This also relates to the good I Banking Scenario globally thus their requirement for MBAs has gone up and the international salaries are in multiples of indian salaries.

3. Because of reason two above people from top colleges are going after international jobs. This is making the Indian companies which used to pick guys from the top colleges are forced to move to grade B colleges as they cannot match the salaries of foreign recruiters apart from this the traditional Indian Businesses are also witnessing high growth. Thus their incremental managerial power is coming from the Grade B colleges.

4. The high degree of growth in IT/ITES companies which has increased their demand for the MBAs these companies are knowledge driven thus their requirement of MBAs is much higher. These companies which used to go to top few colleges are now scouting for talent in all possible B Schools.

5. The current capacity MBA colleges is low and talent pool availability is low. This is making the Prices to go up. Too many recruiters chasing too many MBAs.



Whatever might be the factor the salaries are improving and so are the Job Profiles.

How long this can continue?

I think till the economic cycle last which definetly will last for next few years. But when it lasts will the salaries go down. Had India been a developed Economy it would have happened. But the growth of Initials salaries will drop then.

Thats my analysis of the situation which I am seeing, and being an MBA and working for last two years and pretty closely following the issue.
