Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our dark that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people don't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. Its not just in some of us; its in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others  - From the movie Coach Carter

Editor's Notes

  • #2 “HOW DO WE CREATE A STRONG MANAGEMENT TALENT IN THE BPO INDUSTRY?” In order to create something, the first thing that one needs to know is what to create. The question brought to us in this case is “ How do we create a strong management talent in the BPO Industry?” Let us dissect this question in order to understand what we need to do. What is management? In all business and human organization activity, it is simply the act of getting people together to accomplish desired goals. What is talent? It is not a measure of a person’s capability in regards to anything. Talent is a person, it is someone who possesses a skill that a company needs immediately or in the foreseeable future. Now that we have defined what management and talent is, we also need to define what exactly the industry needs.
