I really feel very happy to read old memories narrated by Sh. B. Ganga Raju under the caption Remembering Great Souls and fully endorse his views.
Personal Touch with your members or colleagues or team down the line appears to be a matter of past only. I can narrate just one example which is sufficient for me to fully agree with said issue.
During my Class One tenure and just two years before my retirement, I was part of first Divisional level conference normally held in May end or June start after close of a financial year to be attended by all Branch Marketing Officials including Branch Incharges and ABM (Sales) along with all Divisional HODs and myself being a part of Divisional HODs Team. Such Conferences are normally addressed by Z.M. Incharge and venue is a very good Hotel of area.
During this conference, Our ZM Incharge entered venue, went straight to dias without shaking hands with participants, No personal introduction of participants and above all did not join for lunch with participants as it was arranged in his room of same hotel. Reviewed Branch wise performance, rebuked publically all poor performers, delivered his address at the close of conference and left venue again without any personal interaction or even hand shake with any one before his departure.
Personal Touch has gone where ?
