How integrity helps in reaching the ultimate life goals - Sai Bhaskar Reddy Nakka (best books to read for young adults txt) 📗

attitude has changed. He was not much focussed on the work. He thought that he was indispensable and I cannot do anything without him. It is like when someone said bye but not leaving, the host feels embarrassed. I was in that situation. After a few months another team member was leaving the organisation for higher education. The same person without any reason, also wanted to leave at the same time. This time I said yes please and did not offer him to come back, if he failed to find a job of his choice. I felt the freedom by letting him go. Within few days, I could find a more committed team to work. When one is seeking freedom, give complete freedom. Never tag with something to return back. An earmarked goat can never gain complete freedom in life.

Dishonest people

Some people wanted to do all the personal things in the office hours only. Consider it as their birth right such as: Studying the share market and investing in the shares; Writing poetry or books; Making phone calls to friends; Social networking on the sites; Bank transactions; Online purchases; Watching sports; Eating breakfast in the office; watching serials, news or movies; doing exercises and going for long walks; and doing gossip and talking bad about boss and other colleague's day long. There is another category, by not doing anything they feel very happy.

Some people misrepresent or create hype in their CVs. Someone said that he was refining his CV. He sent me a copy of his CV to suggest improvements. He has written his designation, and below which written all the projects the company is doing. It appeared that he is involved in every project and doing everything. It is deceiving people. Some of the organisations bidding for consultancy projects modify the CV of the resource persons. Some of the job seekers have become clever and are doing the same.

There are some people, who donate their CV to a friend who has similar qualifications but not having much experience. By changing the basic details, such as name, age, address, they submit the CV with friend’s experiences. Sometimes they also get the job with such ‘creative’ experiences. Both the friends are happy. People who try to cheat others by false claims of experience don’t keep their CV in the public domain nor share their CV with others. Because they know that they could be caught.

Sometimes jobs are given due to recommendation or favour. In the sanctioning of a project, one person has done a favour, so it became an obligation for the company to hire a person recommended by them. This person comes to office, was given a perfect place to sit. Regularly takes breakfast, lunch, tea, and snacks on time. He was given a computer, so he is happy using social media. Leaves early to attend spoken English classes. He smiles a lot and is happy always. He knows there is not much work for him to do. Still, his confidence is high because the boss is known to him and was recommended. Some of them are given smaller roles or jobs even when they have higher qualifications. Often, highly educated officials work as secretaries for an illiterate, least performing and corrupt politician.

Human Resource

A Human resources manager is employed in an organisation as it grows. It is a tough job to manage human resources towards achieving the organisations goals. Education is a system of conditioning the people to serve the purpose of the industries and organisations goals. Through education system one will get engaged in learning many unrelated things and does not question why one is forced to learn such things. So a person in education system is so engaged and one day emerges with a mean goal that is finding a job.

Each person in an organisation are connected together as a community.  The roles and responsibilities of each one could be different but ultimately should work for the common goal, like all the ants belonging to an ant hill do.

The integrity of an engine would fail over a period if some of the parts are not functioning. Sometimes, it is easy to manage machines and use them with maximum efficiency, as they don't have emotions like human beings.

Like a rotten fruit which spoils other fruits in a basket, some people in an organisation would spoil the organisation over a period by influencing others. In this regard action should be taken. Therefore, the Human Resources manager role is important.

HR manager is employed by the head of the organisation for various reasons. Being a disciplinarian and for demanding performance, it is rare that people love their HR manager or the team lead. Very rarely people in organisations show humanness and empathy towards the employees and those who do they are loved and respected.

If a person moves out of an organisation there are few reasons. They get a better opportunity, does not like the pay or work environment, dismissed or demoted from the present position, etc. The organisation should be happy if an empolyee gets a better opportunity and moves away, because being in their organisation they could learn and progress in life. The brand of the organisation also grows. A farewell should be organised and appreciate the contributions of the person in that organisation. I have seen that in one organisation a person contributed for more than 30 years and on his last day from the organisation not even a thanks or appreciation letter for given as a gesture. If a person is jobless or did not get a better job after moving from an organisation, it also means this organisation could not utilise the services of the person, and provide opportunities to improve the skills and knowledge progressively. It is a shame to the organisation too. Sometimes, the person will curse and spread bad propaganda about the organisation.

The HR policies and strict implementation is very much relevant in large organisations. They are much relevant in the production sector.

Good deeds of a person are rarely remembered as compared to the bad deeds of a person. For bad deeds one is named and punished also.

Remuneration for work

How much income a person deserves from the job? This a highly variable question. People sometimes demand more because the organisation is able to pay. Sometimes the honorarium taken has nothing to do with the performance in a day or in a month. Sometimes, people demand money because they need that much money not proportionate to the work or effort. For the work done in a day, people taking honorarium daily are more sensitive than those taking the pay at the month end.

Government staff gets dearness allowance from time to time. When the prices plummet, the dearness allowance is not taken back. In my lectures to sensitise the officials on the plight of the farmers, I used to say that the employees should be paid based on the percentage of the average rainfall received in a particular month. Then they would understand and be sensitive to how uncertain the life of farmers is like. Then everyone would pray for good rains and would take initiatives such as planting trees and reduce carbon emissions. To this proposition no one is ready. They say it was precisely to avoid such uncertainties they have studied hard and chosen a job which is secure and with an assured income.

Anytime is right time for good work

Government employees are good people. For good people, they have convenient timings. They also have holidays and enjoy all kinds of leaves. There are often more than the required number of people and the overall efficiency is low. Some people never listen to anyone because they are government employees and permanent. They are also part of the employee’s associations or unions, and some are leaders. The good people through Good Governance are committed to development.

For the good people the time is less, and sometimes they do good things during the auspicious hours. Although for doing good, anytime is good and no time is bad.

Self-motivated people

Whereas there are some people who believe they must work for the results and do justice for honorarium they receive. They don’t require supervision and monitoring for ensuring the organisations functioning. They are obviously odd and are seen as anti-social elements or bad people. They rarely take leave and strive for the results. They risk their lives while performing their duties. To fight bad and pervade goodness, the good people must be working harder than the bad people. The comforts created for good people are not helping them to get motivated as much as the bad people. So the world is turning bad, with very less good people emerging with commitment.

Corrupt people work hard

It is easy to identify some of the most corrupt government officials, some of them perform their duties mostly well beyond the office hours. One could easily see the lights shining in such corrupt departments, till late night hours.

Once someone with his experience from India, said that don’t believe the honesty of an accountant in a company, who is very punctual to the office, wears mostly white colour cloths, never takes leaves, works beyond office hours and also sometimes too religious or spiritual.

The most corrupt politicians even try to create their charisma through their dress and ‘looking good’ factor. A politician’s looks are cunning; their jokes are at the cost of insulting someone. When they meet others, their interest is to know what are you doing, how much you are earning, how much amount he could demand from you. To do any work they think What is my gain? If this personal gain factor is less than the whole world would have been different.

Say, some doctors may not be praying be saying that, all the patients treated by me should be healthy and never again return to me. But many doctors request the patient to come back and see after two or four days. They are practicing with the patient’s life and not assuring the diagnosis as experts even after so many years of experience. We need doctors not just for the treatment of physical ailments. They save invaluable lives so, they should have much more integrity.

Types of corruption

Most of the people are corrupt by thoughts, some are corrupt by deeds. Only some are caught and branded as corrupt. Even a product exorbitantly priced compared to the manufacturing price is also a form of corruption.

There is a line between corruption and honesty. Everyone crosses the line knowingly or unknowingly in their lifetime. In this world, some are more corrupt, and some are less corrupt and very few are nearly honest.

A true leader or earth leadership is not affected or deterred by the problem of greedy and selfish people around. In fact, the problem around is the reason for one to strive for a better world.

Civil services in the Government is considered as one of the highest job, for serving the people and the nation.

Causing results to reach goal

 Value of life

In an organisation, each person is an asset and important. There is no
