I believe that there are 3 key basics that a good professional must have – 1: Good human being (which includes honesty, dedication, commitment and respect to others’ opinion); 2: Effective communication (Good listener, clear and transparent) and 3: Technical knowledge (specially analytical ability). I am continuously trying to improve these basics within myself.

MIT professor, Michael Hammer, claimed – “The major challenge for managers is to obliterate non-value adding work, rather than using technology for automating it” – I absolutely agree. So, before doing anything blindly I try to do some Process Improvement activities specially on my own continuous work processes.
