management

1. Corporate Expectations
Tuning ourselves to their requirements.
 What do corporates expect?
 What do you all expect?
 Is there a gap?
 How do we prepare ourselves to bridge it?
 When is the right time?

2. What do corporates expect ?
 Profit is the ultimate goal of every business
 It is quite often a tug of war between profit and growth-LABHAM
& BRUDDHI
 Short term goals may be –market creation, market capture, cash
burning for turnover –the ratio & proportion between the two
depends on the long term strategy of the corporate
 Every corporates has an ethos and a culture –stated /implied.
 You need to sense it and imbibe in it.
 Corporates look for your contribution in their journey.

3. Types of Corporates
 Like human beings every corporate wants to reach and be in a
paradise
 The three types -
 The wish fulfiller ones - profit only - work for the promoters and the
closest circle - promoters interest is paramount - always under
siege. Hunger outgrown - Profit plus philanthropy or in some cases
philanthropy plus profit - Section-8 companies. Trusts - CSR
companies. Consumer’s interest is paramount.
 Long term view - everlasting flow of profit with interest of
employee, employer and consumer in balance-intervene only
when necessary. Most of our companies, unfortunately, are in the first category - they
aim at fattening themselves.

4. What do you all expect ?
 Every one wants to be the BOSS, a fat salary and power to
gain control over different resources
 The experiment in an American class.
 The experience of a professor of a business school about
students from different geography
 Your old habits will look for sustenance in a new habitat.
 A new world - vastly different from your college/family in many
areas.
 Putting your learnings in use to contribute in the corporates
journey.

5. The Mismatches
 Discipline
 Timelines - partly
 Accountability
 Non-recognition
 Rewards going to lesser deserving ones
 Being asked to explain on where actually others lacked- not
you.

6. How do we overcome?
 Boss is important -be of value to him and in the process to
the organisation.
 You can do this by -
 Understanding the business
 Understanding the processes
 Understanding the environment
 Understanding his point of view
 Improving your skill set

7. Build a reputation
 Remain updated
 Build relationships
 Learn faster - timelines are very important
 Involve your whole self
 Never compromise with your core values
 Work for your satisfaction.
