A wake up call for a trigger-happy nation!


Professor Arindam Chaudhuri (Renowned Management Guru) Initiative

The first step in overcoming an addiction is to acknowledge it. Americans are addicted to violence. We profess to be appalled at every gruesome outbreak of mass murder (it’s no big deal when just three or four people are killed at a time), but there’s no evidence that we have the will to pull the guns out of circulation, or even to register the weapons and properly screen & train their owners.

On December 26, 2000, an employee of Edgewater Technology in Wakefield, Mass., showed up at work with an assault rifle & a .12-gauge shotgun. Around 11AM he began methodically killing coworkers. He didn’t stop until seven were dead. An employee who had not been at work that day told The Boston Globe, “They were some of the sweetest, smartest people I’ve ever had the chance to work with. The cream of the crop.”

Feel the anima(tion) within!


Renowned Management Guru

Feel the patriotic pulse with a Raj Kapoor flick or laugh your heart out with the classic Charlie Chaplin’s acts. Consider your muscles weaken on hearing the Fuhrèr roar out to German armed forces or get enamoured with the celebrity skirt (blowing) action once again... All this and many more; for amidst the storm created by animation, the choice may soon be yours! However, there is a special frontier yet uncharted – the line being drawn when it comes to creating forms of renowned individuals! And while many might delve over why this issue is so futuristic, experts elucidate that the lone impediment to the whole exercise of crafting real life (past) characters is that their realistic expressions will be simply based on mind’s eye – a thoroughly non-pragmatic technique which might not amuse viewers who’d associate themselves closely or possess thorough knowledge about the human subject in discussion. So while we might literally have history repeat itself, it just is getting delayed due to our attention to details; but we really can’t avoid it, eh?!

(Ger)men o’ honour


IIPM Best MBA Institute

So did the markets view his presence as the bottleneck to Siemens’ growth – as a wall, which had stood for 14 years (since he took over as CEO & President in 1992 and then moved on to become Chairman)? Justifying the stock value appreciation, Prof. R. E. Freeman, Academic Director, Business Roundtable Institute for Corporate Ethics told exclusively to B&E, “People in the market may be reading this as an initial indicator that the company is taking actions to move beyond the scandals and is serious about reform.” In his defence, the 66-year-old von Pierer – who is on the Supervisory Board of Bayer, Deutsche Bank and Volkswagen and advisor to the German Chancellor Angela Merkel – denied any part in this foul-play.

A Law & Economics graduate from Erlangen-Nuremberg University, Pierer joined Siemens in 1969 in the Finance department. The year 1977 saw him move to its power subsidiary, Kraft werk Union AG and become its President in 1989. Three years hence, he succeeded Karlheinz Kaske and became CEO, Siemens AG – a post he held till January 2005. He is married to Annette & deserves credit for initiating Siemens’ entry into emerging markets like China & India. Describing the current scenario, he stated, “Siemens had run into a difficult situation due to in-part apparent & in-part alleged misconduct of managers & employees.”
