BG - "out-of-the-box" thinking will be accepted only when the higher-ups and the management want it like in ur case. Anywhere else it is frowned upon. I have had many instances in my workplace.
Will give you one examaple.
I was working for a Delhi-based Company. Any time I wanted to contact anyone in my Delhi office would do so through the Chat Messenger and not use the telephone or email. I found this much easier and got immediate results. When my colleagues saw what I was doing they immediately informed the management and everyone was quite unhappy with me (labelling me for not working but just chatting). They did a little more investigating and came to know that I was doing this with all the schools for which I was hand holding. They set up a committee and were ready to give me a last chance to explain my actions.
Of course at the end of my explanation they were very happy and in fact all of us got a circular to communicate through Messenger and not make STD calls to Delhi after this incident.
I only said that when we r supposed to be talking of Digital Divide and if we ourselves don't follow it - how can we bring about a change!
Am sure each one of us have such similar incidents - most feel that its better to be with the rut rather than think differently. Those who do are very few and they are the ones who are ready to face the music!Private Reply to Kanchana Ravichandran (new win) |
