As an employee I have always been a very driven professional. My work of the company for me always came first . I am a Funloving person but when It comes to my commitments I am very strict .It always motivated when my Next manager always got reported saying “ Bhakti gives good results “.Not only that but also I was always promoted by reaching the goals of the company . As I progressed and a track record was established I wanted to raise the benchmark after benchmark. I kept driving myself and my team harder but I always took good care of the team ....with them I enjoyed the weekends, monthly closings and after hours etc...For about a decade I never noticed that some may have had more needs/issues than I was addressing as a boss. I never noticed somebody crying (I mean distressed). A few days ago, a young team member came to me on some issue and I could 'read' an unshed 'tear'... I never let it fall.
I do not know why...I remembered the few occasions in the past when I could not prevent the tears from being shed in my room. I wonder whether I could have been a bit more 'compassionate' or 'considerate'.
I thank those colleagues of mine who shed those tears for me and my organizations, which I failed to notice. They made huge contributions and sacrifices.
Today I express gratitude to this young 'expressive' colleague who taught me how to 'read a 'tear' without shedding one.
“I was happy when I started understanding my people better and giving them Justice .”
And Believe me people started addressing me as
“ Her style is High energy and result –oreinted .”

Nice blog and good work done :)
It becomes difficult when ur work and emotions tangle up. I understand it is important to have certain degree of attachment with your colleagues but as Dr. House puts it "Everybody Lies. Only variable is why." You will get this if you start watching House MD. House is a doctor who is completely unattached to his patients (or atleast he shows it that way)
Some people feel it is important to have a congenial relationship with ur colleagues while some feel it is better to have a professional relation.
Well it basically depends on what sort of person you are. And you my dear sister are too nice to be indifferent.
Nice to see you on the blogosphere..... Do keep posting :)
