Dealing with a
Love Story
Abstract
Often enough there is a need to be able to form concrete
plans to tackle hard problems that are afflicting the industry and the company
in general. It is important to
understand that, there is no one person who can possibly solve the problem nor
identify the problem in the first place.
The ideal thing to do is to be able to get to a resolution that
satisfies all stakeholders and in the time available. Often enough there are numerous solutions
available and these might be the cause a lot of parties to bundle a quick try solution for a potentially
hard problem. Here, as things get more
murkier and murkier, and then suddenly when they do get obviously clearer, you
could do these things :
1. To quickly outline a theory and demarcate a boundary
condition in which the solution can be scoped out.
2. To gradually
define the problem and then reach a solution using the profound logic, that is
there at our will due to the scientific community.
There exist a vast number of people who have tried and very
often got to the solution by logic and this far exceeds the people who normally
use the quick try theories. Technically
speaking if Bill Crompton, the director at Global Power was to identify where
he got the idea to solve the problem from then it might have been his thought
process that had so many overwhelming strings that the problem resolved itself
under their might. Not to ignore, the
multitude of noises just beginning to get into his head that these overwhelming
strings were nothing but what a million of like minded people had thought out. It was normal and logical thing, that if we
try to become the problem then we would obviously be the solution to it as
well.
Bill and an another close friend of his Cathy Lambert closely
identified that the industry was going through a bad patch because there was
turf war going on. There were the
dealers who were fighting the customers into believing that they were getting a
raw deal from Global Power, and so the prices were high, Global Power on the
other hand was fighting the dealers telling the customers that the dealers had
to be bypassed as they were the cause of the price hikes. The customers were confused, what to buy ? and
where to buy it from ? If the customer
was confused then it would not be too presumptious to assume that they were not
going to be any sales. Here is where the
thought of going through a system 1, mentioned above, falls into place. Intuition and gut feel often has the ability
to overcome anger, anguish, selfishness and all other traits that prevent human
beings from reaching their full potential.
There is a lack of mention of this in the modern management
terminologies where it is only a number crunching game, reaching targets the
only motive. A study of the Harvard
business school of management has identified that if there is a need to develop,
it is this instinct for business and not the core principles of business on
which a whole lot has been written about.
Truth be spoken, this feel comes from connecting with inner self and
understanding how the terminologies and existing implications impact our
business decisions.
Business as a whole was going through a bad patch, it had
been 2 years since a good deal had been cracked in the region. The Delhi-NCR region was well developed and
the area had been notified as the subsidized zone and yet their was no business.
The customer is always right is the only idiom we believe in.
