A Career and a Choice
And so I became a doctor although I would rather have been a journalist. But because my heart wasn't with the profession, I soon outgrew this and became a part of the charitable non-profit sector where I have spent most of my years.
WHEN I was a young student, most of the people did not have many career choices. Usually the children chose to do what their parents did before them – so lawyer’s children were encouraged to be lawyers, a teacher’s children to be teachers and so on. And if the parents were none of these and wanted something different for their children, they would push their children to become a doctor or an engineer or a civil servant. In those times these and a few others were considered to be aspirational careers which parents encouraged their children to strive for. The children’s own wishes were of little consequence. If you have seen the movie, 3 idiots, you would notice that such a tradition still exists.
And so I became a doctor although I would rather have been a journalist. But because my heart wasn’t with the profession, I soon outgrew this and became a part of the charitable non-profit sector where I have spent most of my years. And while working in an NGO, I have seen an amazing variety of people who were trained to be something else but ended up with something quite different. As the head of an organization which deals with women and children who have been trafficked, I have a team which is full of people who were trained to be something but are finding themselves driven by a passion for something else.
Today the choices and options available to young people are many. So, parents are happy to leave the choice of a viable career option with their children, but youngsters often find it difficult to make a choice. They are caught between peer pressure, the materialistic values that increasingly guide the society and the inner calling and vocation whose voice often gets muffled out.
As we consider various career options and courses for study, the singular question to ask ourselves is: “Will this help me become a better servant for others?” Our choice of a job or a career in life should be about how we can best serve our family and others with the gifts and abilities God has given us. If our whole focus in choosing a job or career is only about getting rich and serving ourselves, then we are making sinful choices. There was a time when certain professions, subjects of study and vocations were considered holier than others. Those who pursued that path were considered set apart for “full time” work. But today we know that whether we serve as a pastor or serve in a coal mine as a technician or as a Air Traffic Controller at the airport, as long as through our studies and jobs, we are able to fulfill our responsibility of stewarding this created world in a God honoring way, we are doing fine.
William Sloane Coffin, a former chaplain of Yale university speaks to our own challenge of responding to God’s call, of choosing the pathway of faithful living, when he reminds us, “A career seeks to be successful, a calling to be valuable. A career tries to make money; a calling tries to make a difference.”
The fact is that, no matter what we do for a living, it’s about serving others. Whether we work at a Café Coffee Day outlet or are a CEO in a big company; whether we are a doctor or a garbage collector, we should do our job the best we can with the understanding that we are serving our generation and our people and our careers and studies are but a tool to this greater end.

B-schools or placement agencies- Panel discussion at Praxis Business School
B-schools or placement agencies- Panel discussion at Praxis Business School
Popularity of B-schools these days rests on their placement records. Greater the percentage of those placed, the better the quality of education imparted by these B-schools- this is the general notion.
It was this issue that was taken up for a panel discussion on April 17 by Praxis Business School on the occasion of the convocation ceremony of class of ’09 and ’10. The panel consisted of K Dasaratharaman, President, Specialty Businesses, Spencer’s Retail, Shankar Chatterjee, Managing Director, Bertling Logistics, Dr Prithwis Mukerjee, Professor, VG-SoM IIT Kharagpur and Santosh Desai, MD & CEO, Future Brands Ltd, Future Group.
Moderating the discussion was Prof Charanpreet Singh, Associate Dean, Praxis Business School. Singh elaborated on the topic and presented both its sides – why should B-schools not be called placement agencies and B-schools should have a greater aim.
Opening the discussion was K. Dasaratharaman. The IIM A passout spoke about the philosophical, cultural and sociological aspects of a B-school. He humorously narrated how students of reputed B-schools can easily get a credit card or find a spouse.
What made his speech stand out was however a unique observation: “Life is not a choice of ‘or’ but it is the tyranny of the ‘and’. While you do one thing you have to be conscious of its opposite.” He concluded his speech by advising students to be multi-potent and ambidextrous.”
Referring to the issue under scrutiny, the next speaker Shankar Chatterjee explained the meaning of a B-school: “It is a congregation of individuals who join to create something that the business world wants.”
Chatterjee considered B-schools to be the sellers, MBA graduates to be the products and corporates to be the buyers. “These days B-schools follow the practice of selling by yelling. Instead basic fundamental values should be instilled. We, Indians, should be confident”, added the corporate honcho. He felt corporates should give importance to the individual instead of the institute. Prithwis Mukherjee, the third speaker took an extreme position and believed that B-schools had indeed reduced themselves to placement agencies.
He criticized B-schools for propagating the idea of ‘industry ready graduates’. Citing an example from his tryst with the software industry Mukherjee said, “If you know coding and C++, then you are ready for the software industry. There is no original idea because we are all ‘industry ready’.”
“Leadership, Mathematics, Psychology and Technology are the most important factors that an MBA should work upon”, felt Mukherjee, demonstrating the idea with a power-point presentation.
The final speaker Santosh Desai elaborated on the idea of how successful people are never questioned as they are considered to be intellectuals. “The essential question to ask is what does the industry need?” said Desai. He urged the students not to be in love with what exists but instead be creative. He further advised the B-schools to figure out what the business world needs and encourage students to question. The discussion, enjoyed by the audience, gave rise to a lot of questions – why B-schools are not following the way of open-source system, why cannot students stress on education, why are Indians not successful in India and the like. They all got satisfying answers from the distinguished panel and the fresh graduates had lots to take away with them.

Faith in God reduces stress, says a university research
Faith in God reduces stress, says a university research
Having faith in God certainly helps! Researchers at the University of Toronto have found that believing in God can reduce stress and anxiety immensely. The result, published in Psychological Science, shows distinct brain differences between believers and nonbelievers.
Assistant psychology professor Michael Inzlicht, leader of the study, used a Stroop task, a psychological test that entailed hooking up participants to electrodes that measured their brain activity. The result showed that religious people were less afraid of facing the unknown or committing mistakes, says a report published in 7th Space.
Compared to non-believers, the religious participants in the study showed significantly less activity in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), a portion of the brain that helps modify behaviour by signalling when attention and control are needed, usually as a result of some anxiety-producing event like making a mistake.
The stronger their religious zeal, the less their ACC fired in response to their own errors, and the fewer errors they made.
“You could think of this part of the brain like a cortical alarm bell that rings when an individual has just made a mistake or experiences uncertainty,” Inzlicht said in an interview to a health journal.
He added that religious people or even people who simply believe in the existence of God showed significantly less brain activity in relation to their own errors.
Many researchers agree that believers tend to be happier, healthier, less stressed than compared to atheists, drink and smoke less and better at creating strong marriages and family support.
Hailing this research, Beato, author of The Power of Prayer, Endurance and Truth said,” I believe my life is less stressful because my belief in God,” says Beato. “God has given me support, hope and peace of mind anytime I’ve needed it."

Investing in MBA programme can be risky, says a report
Investing in MBA programme can be risky, says a report
If you are thinking about investing your time and money on a MBA accreditation, be very careful in selecting the institute or your investment will get wasted.
The advice follows the release of rankings by the Chinese edition of Forbes magazine on April 19th.
As per reports published in local Chinese media, the ranking was based on a survey conducted in 45 domestic B-schools and mainly focused on the feedback of students who graduated in 2005 and 2009 – people who have now been working for five years and one year, respectively.
The list was topped by China Europe International Business School (CEIBS), which has topped the list third time consecutively.
The survey also found that MBA programmes offered in various Chinese B-schools have varied greatly in the past few years. While some B- schools have fared well this time around, the performance of others have deteriorated.
Talking about the importance of making the correct choice of the institute and programme to pursue MBA, Liu Ruiming, executive editor of the Chinese edition of Forbesm said,” In the mid- and long-term, investing in an MBA or EMBA education can achieve a good return, but only for those excellent programmes.”
Quoting an example, the magazine said graduates from CEIBS realised cumulative income growth over the five years that followed of 524,000 yuan.
The income growth rate was 116.7 per cent when comparing salary before and immediately after their MBA.
On the contrary, graduates from relatively weak business schools saw no obvious rise on salary.
However, there were cases when students had not recovered even the costs of their tuitions.
The survey was conducted on the basis of return on investment after five years. It also considered the first-year starting salary for graduates and the income growth rate after graduating.
