Well anyway, hope I can read that and some stuff during summer.<BR/><BR/>I just got hold of a book called Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion (one of my friends ordered and sent it to me!). I started it towards the tail end of my Cuba trip and it looks good so far. It is in fact an assigned text for one of the elective courses here called Power and Politics! I have got rave reviews about the course and I am definitely going to take it. It's taught by one of my favourite professors too here...

The only way to keep ahead of the obsolescence curve is to embrace change and innovate rapidly. The new-age mantra is 'Innovate or Vacate' (OK, I agree, now <B>that</B> was cheesy) ;) <BR/><BR/>Your thoughts on how each one is constantly striving to inculcate unique skills to become something special reminded me of the concept of building a USP that acts as an effective 'barrier to entry', which can be leveraged to ensure that competition does not catch up too soon. <BR/><BR/>Atta boy Shivesh, <I>now</I> you are living the management experience :)<BR/><BR/>And of course..congrats on landing the job offer :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15814831.post-1145385504977257802006-04-18T11:38:00.000-07:002006-04-18T11:38:00.000-07:00I was sure I had missed something by not being abl...I was sure I had missed something by not being able to see the Fuqua idol!!
