How Narayanamurthy reached the top of Infosys!

How Narayanamurthy reached the top of Infosys!














All of us will be quite eager to know how Narayanamurthy reached the top of Infosys.

















This is indeed a true story straight from the horses mouth.

























My wife's cousin H V sent this through email to me.




















I strongly felt that it is absolutely worth sharing with all of you.























There's something that each of us should strive to learn and achieve.
































Is it a story of sheer luck???































Or is it a story of grit and determination????





























Or is it a story of being in the right place at the right time????







































What is indeed the secret of Narayanamurthy's success????




































Be patient and go further down to see the remarkable story of Narayanamurthy's path to the top of Infosys:


















































Ha! Haha! Hahaha!

ps: If you want the postal address of H V, you'll have to get in touch with me directly - She has a huge collection of adequately ferocious dogs (she calls them her beloved pets, but I can assure you - they can be quite tough with "unwelcome" visitors!!!). Hence, I'm afraid that she'll mostly be out of reach of those of you who may be eager to have a go at her!!!

Love that extra peg??? (Blame your parents / ancestors - It's all in the genes!!!)

Love that extra peg??? (Blame your parents / ancestors - It's all in the genes!!!)

Many of you would have been repeatedly bugged by "traditional, orthodox" parents as to why we're so "addicted" to our favourite alcoholic beverage.

Now, you have an extra excuse - Just blame your parents (after all they gave you your genes)! Recent research indicates that alcohol consumption levels are likely to be linked to genetic factors. For further details, read this link:

Men seek beauty, women want wealth

Men seek beauty,

women want wealth

I guess that we have "sort of" known it for ages - when people marry (or look for life partners), most men seek a beautiful wife, while most women look for rich men or men with high incomes.

Apparently, people out there in Europe actually spend a lot of time, money and research to find out such great truths instead of looking for means of eradicating poverty, improving communal harmony, etc!

A recent research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences by Peter Todd, of Indiana University, Lars Penke, of Humboldt University, Berlin, Barbara Fasolo, of the London School of Economics, and Alison Lenton, of the University of Edinburgh has apparently "found" what a lot of us have known all along.

For some interesting details, do read this article from Daily Telegraph, UK:

COUPLE SENTENCED TO JAIL

COUPLE SENTENCED TO JAIL
(One after the other, so as to ensure that their infant baby does not suffer!)

A former Morgan Stanley financial analyst and her husband, an ex-hedge fund analyst at ING, were sentenced to a year and half each on Tuesday for insider trading.

But in an unusual twist to the case, U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon sentenced Jennifer Xujia Wang and her husband, Ruopian Chen, to serve their sentences one after the other to allow for at least one of them to be with their infant son!

Read this link:

I guess that we can smile at quite a few things from this report:

  • Justice is done on a case of insider trading, which is so hard to prove, in general!
  • Even in the so-called "materialistic" USA, the judges have chosen to take into consideration the plight of the innocent infant
  • The two jailed folks have been asked to pay up part of their ill-gotten wealth!
  • Wonder if the two jailed folks are also smiling all the way to the bank, with the quiet confidence that only the tip of the iceberg has come into the attention of SEC authorities!

Educated Women Bleep Better

Educated Women Bleep Better

From my own student days, I knew that the best way to go to sleep is to pick up a nice thick book to read! Preferably, a book on a subject of "Extra special" interest to us!!!

Recent research seems to indicate that this can be scientifically explained at least in case of women! Apparently, educated women sleep better.

Read this interesting article for further details:
