Back to Business

Thanks to all the pujas and homams, Recession blues are nearing an end. Indian Stock market is showing an upward movement, malls get their footfalls, property advertisements adorn the newspapers and exhibition halls are well booked. No more excuses not to work.

Transition from recession is equally complex. Entrepreneurs have to get business, employees have to review their career options and pink slipped employees have to get jobs. During the last one year of recession period, many entrepreneurs and professionals would have developed a particular style of living, working and spending of time. Personal financing, skill endowment and planning for health care could have been the focus areas for many. But along with this, lethargy and unnecessary spending of time on internet would have also set in. So, what are the activities to be continued, dispensed with and initiated?

For example, should we continue to be active in all the social networking sites which we enrolled? How does one fill the gap in the resume? Post recession, what will be the new opportunities?

I for one, feel that one has to now capitalize on the work that he or she had put in for the last few months. Convert the social network to physical network and make it count. Renew the old contacts. Close the Notebooks, come out of cozy office and go to market.

Let us brain storm and help each other; either on the web or on the floor. Count me in please.
