"Positive deviants are the individuals using unusual tactics to achieve success"...Dr Gary Klein...

 

  • Positive deviants are the individuals using unusual tactics to achieve success, and we can learn from them.
  • Their tactics may be subtle, and they might not even understand what is working.
  • Expertise is needed to spot positive deviants, diagnose the reasons for their success, and spread the message.

Dream Big!!

 


Hai students and scholars,

Usually we aim to become something taking those around us or those whom we met in our school or college as rolemodel. 

Most of the times this aim becomes much lesser than our true full potential.

I watched and listened to the speech by Professor Deborah Prentice who took over as the 347th Vice Chancellor of University of Cambridge. She started her life as a simple psychologist and grew up to become an administrator of educational institutions and now the VC of the prestigious University of Cambridge!!

When i heard her speech i felt 'Why no one guided me to become like this when i was a student?...Why i did not think like this before?'....so i thought let me share so that you also don't think later the way i think now!!!

So, think Global....aim high...rule the world!!

Peacefully yours...Dr M Ramasubramanian...CAO, IIM Kashipur!!

Grow to a level that your CV is just one line!!......'I am a Nobel Laureate in Economics'!!!

 


Hai Students and Scholars!!

 

🙋‍♂️...We write so much in our CV to describe about our qualifications, experience, skill sets etc. Why not we grow to a level that we just write one line in the CV which describes everything about us!! (e.g 'I am a Nobel Laureate in Economics')...or may be CV itself is not required for us...We need to think differently!!!🤔

Few years back when i superannuated from Navy, i felt miserable correcting my CV every day and uploading some 27 experience details etc in job applications....somehow i travelled through that journey...now when i think about superannuating from IIM Kashipur the nightmare of again correcting cv suiting every job description is painful...so, when i asked myself why i have to undergo this pain, the mind said 'You have not grown to a level of not requiring a CV or not grown to a level of making a simple or one liner cv!!'....so, i feel it is comparatively easier to become one rather than undergoing that painful process of cv correction!!..I also feel i should have known or someone should have told or guided me like this earlier during my student days....so only i shared so that it may be useful for someone here!!
