Positive intelligence
Read about the concept of positive
intelligence propagated by Shirzad Chamine which speaks of the saboteur and sage within
us .It further elaborates how we can sabotage ourselves with some traits and
there is a sage too within us which is the balancing factor .The earlier you
are aware of these traits and this wonderful concept the better. You can visit
the site and take 2 tests – the saboteur
one and the positive intelligence quotient
The reports give a good understanding of
the personality traits which either enable professional behaviour which spells
success else some derailers –(minor they
may be )which take us away from our goals !! Additional details about this concept
can also be found at:

How Google Works and is Still Working
Read this amazing book .. The authors have
given a very practical account of the modern day management practices followed
at Google Inc and how they have helped create a new culture devoid of the
baggage of the past and has characteristics like fairness and transparency ,
providing real space to employees to innovate , fostering team work without
inhibition etc .The language is racy and grasps your attention from the word
go.. One thing I could not help noticing Google with its razor sharp focus has
only hired the best whether it is in the form of employees or even consultants
who work for them .Talk of A’s hiring A’s- this is even mentioned in the
book.The book also dwells on the future and how big Data will even push the
envelope further as far as innovation is
concerned ..A must read I should say ..
