Unfortunately the state of this world today is based upon greed and selfishness, where people are constantly eyeing more money and power. Not only they discard friends/strangers who helped them along the way, they don't seem to remember their roots at all! Well said!

They were great. I remember John Maxwell's quote "People really don't care how much you know until they know how much you care" You care for your people and that shows. Cheers, Raj Thanks Raghava for sharing those tips. They were great.

I agree that if you don't think consciously then you will end up doing these things unconsciously. I am in a client interface role and manage a team of four. Here are few things, which I usually follow which my superiors never did. 1.If a team member has done analysis or fixed a problem, I make sure he is on cc list and appreciate his/her contribution or forward his mail to client with the analysis. Lot of times I have seen my superiors where they cut/paste the analysis and send it to client as if they have done then work. 2.Since we work on onsite-offshore model I call them up and thank them personally for any extra contribution given to keep the application running. 3.I allow my team members to take time off for any extra hours put in. Nice blog.Any comments!!! Rajesh,

Balaji, Don't give up. Long term success requires working based on sound principles. Those who don't follow MIGHT see short term success. But that's not what you are aiming for. Cheers, Raj Thanks Prashant.

If you say, you have done good job of what has been given, you will be told that is what you are expected to do. so many bull crap, so on and so forth. Unfortunately I have also seen that people like those will rise above the rest also. Unfortunately Rajesh, what you have written is a moral lesson. But whether it is useful, I am not sure. I am not really that very experience to guage that. Nice blog though because I really believe in the values that you have written here.
