Learning for Nurturing Excellence
Introduction
“As
the level of business consciousness
enhances it will be no more the
survival of the fittest but the
survival of the wisest.”
(Sampath J M)
In
an era filled with unlimited information
and knowledge, it becomes very
important for an individual to
be able to assimilate the information
and be able to integrate the same
for meaningful purposes. Unfortunately,
learning seems to be misunderstood
with accumulation of knowledge
rather than understanding of knowledge.
In today's dynamic world, it becomes
very essential to foster the ability
to understand and integrate the
learning's into one's day-to-day
life. This would lead to higher
level of contribution from each
individual towards the organizational
goals. In a competitive environment
where there is a constant pressure
on enhancing performance in any
role an individual plays. In today's
corporate world where `Producing
higher output with Lower Investment
to meet the needs of the Customer'
seems to be the name of the game,
there is a need for more individuals
who are wise than knowledgeable.
If this game has to be played
well, every individual has to
work towards adding value to whatever
he/she does in the role one plays
in the organization. One of the
prerequisites for an individual
to be able to add value is the
ability to be a learner all through.
