I am an 'ESTJ' & you ??

After reading this blog of Raman Sir; Today i have taken a Humanmatrics Typology Test . I found myself as ESTJ (Extraverted, Sensing, Thinking, Judging). I am surprised it is very very close to my behaviors and interests. I would like to show you few lines from it...

From ESTJ :
"Every right-minded man has a philosophy of life, whether he knows it or not....."

ESTJs thrive on order and continuity. Being extraverted, their focus involves organization of people, which translates into supervision. While ENTJs enjoy organizing and mobilizing people according to their own theories and tactically based agendas, ESTJs are content to enforce "the rules," often dictated by tradition or handed down from a higher authority.

Tradition is important to the ESTJ. Holidays, birthdays and other annual celebrations are remembered and observed often religiously by this type.

ESTJs have an acute sense for orthodoxy. Much of their evaluation of persons and activities reflects their strong sense of what is "normal" and what isn't. ESTJ humor is frequently centered around something or someone being off center or behaving abnormally.

ESTJs promote the work ethic. Power, position and prestige should be worked for and earned. Laziness is rarely viewed with ambivalence nor benevolence by this type.

The ESTJ is outspoken, a person of principles, which are readily expressed. The ESTJ is not afraid to stand up for what she believes is right even in the face of overwhelming odds. ESTJs are able to make the tough calls.

well, i guess you are willing to take this test now... so carry on ... and be the honest to yourself while and answering. Here is the Test and let me know what you are :)

Love...

"? is Love..." People says its a very difficult question for all of us who never fall in love, please note here so called "love before marriage". Let me make it general.. "One can't understand love, unless and until she or he love a boy or girl". What the hell, I don't think so... please let me know what you think.... As much i understand love is a feeling, a feeling from heart, a feeling from soul for someone or something or anything. In day to day life everyone loves many things, loving them more then their life but they don't consider as love... i don't understand why..??..??.. do you??

Vision & Mission of any firm

By definition:

Vision: It is the vivid descriptive image of what a company wants to be 'or' wants to be known for; it preserves the core of future. Its a hallmark of an en-lighten forward looking organization.

Mission: It is a statement of intent of what a company wants to create and though which type of business. It is a definition of the business. It is an answer to the question -i) what business the firm is in; ii) why the firm is in this business; iii) what could be the business if the firm was not in the existing business. It is process of legitimization for existence of the business. It reflects the culture, philosophy and grand design of the firm.

The vision and mission for any firm is very very important, these are two artifacts for any company's strategy for market. And strategy gap may leads a company to zero % market share. There are so many examples, talk about bajaj chetak scooter they didn't change their strategy with the changing market and there market share from 90 % came to 0%; yes they have stopped the production. Similarly Colgate, they lost their market share 90 % to 52% due to strategy gap. All that due lack of proper vision and mission,

Now talk about successful companies; IBM, Vision: Business On Demand.. a virtual office,The on demand vision is for companies or institutions to respond dynamically, whatever their business challenge; this statement may not be true 10 years back, but now it looks true; Motorola: Mobilizing people; Nokia: connecting people. Tata Steel: Tata Steel strives to strengthen India's industrial base through the effective utilisation of staff and materials. The means envisaged to achieve this are high technology and productivity, consistent with modern management practices. LogicaCMG: LogicaCMG’s mission is to help leading organisations worldwide achieve their business objectives through the innovative delivery of information technology and business process solutions.

These great companies knows their business very well and are in business for long long time, that is what is mission and vision which help companies to decide strategy.

I feel it is not complete will write more some time later.. till then; Chao;
