My LIC days

| MANAGEMENT AND THE UNIONS WIN ! |
SHRI NN JOSHI, Chief (Personnel) was always kind towards me. When he was Chief General Manager, LIC Housing Finance Ltd., he had given me a project to make research on how other housing finance companies worked. The other project was to talk to Shri NM Sundaram, General Secretary, AIIEA and report to him.
While talking to Shri Sundaram, he made a casual mention about a
problem relating to Mysore Divisional Office which was at that time housed in
two buildings on two sides of a road. Shri Sundaram told me that he was going to
write to the Chairman.
Next day I just rang up Shri AR Menon who was Senior Divisional Manager
of Mysore Division at that time and enquired what exactly was the problem.
While I still do not know the details of the issue relating to the
Divisional Office being housed in two buildings opposite to each other on two sides
of a road, the obstacle that stood as a stumbling block and prevented smooth
relations between the management and the employees was immediately solved by
Shri Menon.
Perhaps there was no need for Shri Sundaram to write a letter to the Chairman or for the Chairman to intervene !
