Four Seasons of your career (Tamil Presentation)

Dear Friends,

I have recently read a book titled “The  Seasons of your Career”. I just thought that I can share a few points from this book in the form a TAMIL presentation along with a questionnaire to be filled. Please go through the presentation. (It will take quite a few minutes for the PDF to load). From slide 15 onwards you will see questions for which you need to simply answer as YES or NO.

You can keep a print copy of  the attached file (4 seasons questionnaire.pdf) and mark you answers.

Arrive at the totals and find out where you are in your career stage.

4 SEASONS QUESTIONNAIRE

Adding useful info to Excel sheet exported from TALLY

Dear All,

Some of you will be using TALLY and may use the option of exporting some data as a EXCEL WORKSHEET.

REQUIREMENT:

A worksheet containing party’s names and outstanding amounts is exported from TALLY. The name of the parties and their mobile phone number is available with me in another worksheet called PHONE.

The data exported from TALLY is placed in the columns A to G.  Now I want a simple formula that could fetch the mobile number of these parties in column H.

Problems: 1. The PHONE worksheet may not contain phone numbers for a few parties. 2. The name of parties may not be in alphabetical order in the worksheet exported by Tally as well in my PHONE worksheet.

Imagine that you have around 4000 cllients. Will it be possible to switch to PHONE worksheet and use the FIND option to find the mobile number of the party as and when required?

The INDEX & MATCH function in Excel offers a very simple solution. If you are interested to know how, please send a mail to geta.erode@gmail.com. We will send a sample worksheet.

Regards,

Team GLOBALedge.

Introduction to Ubuntu (Linux)

Hello All,

I am learning a new thing. It’s LINUX. In particular the debian-dose of LINUX called UBUNTU ver. 8.10. It is really amazing to see a good and easy OS like linux. I am a starter in this area, with an intention to learn more and more.

However, I just thought that I can share something that I have created with whatever knowledge I have gathered in Ubuntu. Infact, with the stuff I have understood so far, I can handle a session for about 3 hours on basics of LINUX.

If you are interested please go through the attached PDF and let me know your feedback.

Thanks & regards,

COMMUNICATION QUIZ

 

Dear All,

All of us require communication skills. Communication skill – is not – just an ability to speak well or write well. It is a combination of many aspects, including how you foresee something and how you predict something before you create communication on that. The following quiz will give you an idea about how good you are in communication.

Read all the statements and choose the right option that describes your way of working. Jot down the relative number.

Add up all the numbers after answering all the 15 questions.

Statement		Not at all	Rarely	Some times	Often	Very Often
1	I try to anticipate and predict possible causes of confusion, and I deal with them up front.	1	2	3	4	5
2	When I write a memo, email, or other document, I give all of the background information and detail I can to make sure that my message is understood.	5	4	3	2	1
3	If I don’t understand something, I tend to keep this to myself and figure it out later.	5	4	3	2	1
4	I’m sometimes surprised to find that people haven’t understood what I’ve said.	5	4	3	2	1
5	I tend to say what I think, without worrying about how the other person perceives it. I assume that we’ll be able to work things out later.	5	4	3	2	1
6	When people talk to me, I try to see their perspectives.	1	2	3	4	5
7	I use email to communicate complex issues with people. It’s quick and efficient.	5	4	3	2	1
8	When I finish writing a report, memo, or email, I scan it quickly for typos and so forth, and then send it off right away.	5	4	3	2	1
9	When talking to people, I pay attention to their body language.	1	2	3	4	5
10	I use diagrams and charts to help express my ideas.	1	2	3	4	5
11	Before I communicate, I think about what the person needs to know, and how best to convey it.	1	2	3	4	5
12	When someone’s talking to me, I think about what I’m going to say next to make sure I get my point across correctly.	5	4	3	2	1
13	Before I send a message, I think about the best way to communicate it (in person, over the phone, in a newsletter, via memo, and so on).	1	2	3	4	5
14	I try to help people understand the underlying concepts behind the point I’m discussing. This reduces misconceptions and increases understanding.	1	2	3	4	5
15	I consider cultural barriers when planning my communications.	1	2	3	4	5

Here are the interpretation for your total scores.

Score	Comment
56-75	Excellent! You understand your role as a communicator, both when you send messages, and when you receive them. You anticipate problems, and you choose the right ways of communicating. People respect you for your ability to communicate clearly, and they appreciate your listening skills.
36-55	You’re a capable communicator, but you sometimes experience communication problems. Take the time to think about your approach to communication, and focus on receiving messages effectively, as much as on sending them. This will help you improve.
15-35	You need to keep working on your communication skills. You are not expressing yourself clearly, and you may not be receiving messages correctly either. The good news is that, by paying attention to communication, you can be much more effective at work, and enjoy much better working relationships! The rest of this article will direct you to some great tools for improving your communication skills.

CPE SEMINAR - ERODE SIRC - 20-10-2008

Restaurant Story – can we cook something out of this?

Hello All,

Please find attached a PDF narrating a story. You might have had similar experiences. Learning from experiences require thinking from others perspective also. Let us give a try to find how good we are in that.

You can also find a questionnaire containing around 10 questions framed on this story. You can answer this questionnaire as an individual. If you conduct regular staff meetings in your organization, then you can show this to your staff members. Divide them into two groups. The first group should come out with answers while the second group should enhance those answers as well as post their objections, if any.

This kind of a debate will be useful for developing analytical as well as logical thinking skills.

If you are interested to check how your dish came out after cooking, send us your answers. We will taste  it and give our feedback.

Regards,

GLOBALedge TEAM
