One interesting fact for our knowledge Jamshedji Nusserwanji Tata was once, travelling to Germany. As he stood there, at the door of his First Class Cabin in the Steam-liner, he noticed a lot of activity on the lower decks of the Ship.  On enquiring, he learnt that a great Indian Saint Shri Swami Vivekananda was on board the same ship. Out of genuine respect and curiosity J.N. Tata decided to pay a visit to the great saint. Swami Vivekananda had of-course heard about the respected industrialist. As the conversation grew J.N. Tata explained that he was on his way to Germany. "I have with me sacks of soil : From various parts of India. I am taking these samples of soil to Germany. I wish to know if Iron can be extracted profitably from any of these districts." said J.N. Tata to the Saint.

Chairman, TATA Steel was holding a weekly meeting with Tata Steel staff in Jamshedpur.

A worker took up a serious issue. He said the quality and hygiene of toilets for the workers was very bad. Whereas, he  pointed that the cleanliness and the hygiene of executive toilets was always very good.  Chairman asked his top executive how much time he needs to set it right. The executive asked for a month to set it right.  Chairman said "I would rather do it in a day. Send me a carpenter." Next day, when the carpenter came, he just ordered the sign boards to be swapped.  The sign board on the workers’ toilet displayed "Executives" and the Executives’ toilet displayed "Workers”. Chairman then instructed this sign to be changed every fortnight. The quality of both the toilets came at par in the next three days. The Leadership is something much more than being an Executive *Learning from this message.. Problem identification requires critical thinking But Problem solution just requires creative thinking

A Very Interesting Story Must Read and Think...! One Sunday morning, a wealthy man sat in his balcony enjoying sunshine and his coffee when a little ant caught his eye which was going from one side to the other side of the balcony carrying a big leaf several times more than its size. The man watched it for more than an hour. He saw that the ant faced many obstacles during its journey, paused, took a diversion and then continued towards destination. At one point the tiny creature came across a crack in the floor. It paused for a little while, analyzed and then laid the huge leaf over the crack, walked over the leaf, picked the leaf on the other side then continued its journey. The man was captivated by the cleverness of the ant, one of God’s tiniest creatures. The incident left the man in awe and forced him to contemplate over the miracle of Creation. It showed the Greatness of the Creator. In front of his eyes there was this tiny creature of God, lacking in size yet equipped with a bra...
