Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats.

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All leaders should be aware of this. AI is creating, and will continue to create, a rapid change in the world of technologies and applications. This makes it important that we change the way we look for new ideas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          AI can now make content, pictures, videos, and also support scientific research. Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Another is Protection against cyberattacks. AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          AI can now make content, pictures, videos, and also support scientific research. Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks. They may lack courage to take risks, take actions & decisions on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution.

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All leaders should be aware of this. AI is creating, and will continue to create, a rapid change in the world of technologies and applications. This makes it important that we change the way we look for new ideas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  I said, \u201cAnother principle is Data driven organization of Leading business. AI can be used with great advantage to generate data and also analyse it. But, if we are making decisions based on this data, we need to ensure the correctness of the data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They may lack courage to take risks, take actions & decisions on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can be used to study current systems and suggest better and more efficient processes and systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Another is High levels of EQ. One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection.

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks. They may lack courage to take risks, take actions & decisions on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks. They may lack courage to take risks, take actions & decisions on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak.

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks. They may lack courage to take risks, take actions & decisions on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from.

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks. They may lack courage to take risks, take actions & decisions on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks. They may lack courage to take risks, take actions & decisions on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

Little girl thought the poor butterfly is struggling hard and going through pain, let me help. She broke open the shell. Butterfly came out. But it couldn\u2019t fly. The very act of butterfly struggling & breaking the shell strengthens its wings to enable it to fly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

Little girl thought the poor butterfly is struggling hard and going through pain, let me help. She broke open the shell. Butterfly came out. But it couldn\u2019t fly.

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Let us examine the kind of challenges I faced in the process of personal change.

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

Especially the affluent parents disable their children with over-protection, over-care and instant gratification of their desires\/demands. This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Another is Protection against cyberattacks. AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Another is Protection against cyberattacks. AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  AI can now make content, pictures, videos, and also support scientific research. Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          AI can now make content, pictures, videos, and also support scientific research. Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  AI can now make content, pictures, videos, and also support scientific research. Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

The very act of butterfly struggling & breaking the shell strengthens its wings to enable it to fly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

And to discern the two we need to develop higher Self-Awareness, which is the core of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership and even Spiritual growth. Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

Little girl thought the poor butterfly is struggling hard and going through pain, let me help. She broke open the shell. Butterfly came out. But it couldn\u2019t fly. The very act of butterfly struggling & breaking the shell strengthens its wings to enable it to fly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future.

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

Little girl thought the poor butterfly is struggling hard and going through pain, let me help. She broke open the shell. Butterfly came out. But it couldn\u2019t fly. The very act of butterfly struggling & breaking the shell strengthens its wings to enable it to fly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n

This creates a psychological conditioning which plays into work-life as well.<\/p>\n\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board.

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

Little girl thought the poor butterfly is struggling hard and going through pain, let me help. She broke open the shell. Butterfly came out. But it couldn\u2019t fly. The very act of butterfly struggling & breaking the shell strengthens its wings to enable it to fly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

Little girl thought the poor butterfly is struggling hard and going through pain, let me help. She broke open the shell. Butterfly came out. But it couldn\u2019t fly. The very act of butterfly struggling & breaking the shell strengthens its wings to enable it to fly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board.

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Little girl thought the poor butterfly is struggling hard and going through pain, let me help. She broke open the shell. Butterfly came out. But it couldn\u2019t fly. The very act of butterfly struggling & breaking the shell strengthens its wings to enable it to fly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          The very act of each team member telling a size for the story, followed by sharing the thought behind that number helped elicit and surface all inputs and questions from all the team. This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board.

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Little girl thought the poor butterfly is struggling hard and going through pain, let me help. She broke open the shell. Butterfly came out. But it couldn\u2019t fly. The very act of butterfly struggling & breaking the shell strengthens its wings to enable it to fly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future.

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board.

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The very act of butterfly struggling & breaking the shell strengthens its wings to enable it to fly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n

AI has moved from the earlier Markov chain models, through Bayesian network models to deep neural networks and ways to manipulate them. In addition, the explosion in chip technologies with organizations like Nvidia making huge strides in areas like GPU and TPU, also helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key change here was improved collaboration between PO and the Team for fleshing out the feature.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key change here was improved collaboration between PO and the Team for fleshing out the feature.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  I said, \u201cAnother principle is Data driven organization of Leading business. AI can be used with great advantage to generate data and also analyse it. But, if we are making decisions based on this data, we need to ensure the correctness of the data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Another principle that can benefit from the new advances is No active inertia. AI can be used to study current systems and suggest better and more efficient processes and systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Another is High levels of EQ. One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Another is Protection against cyberattacks.

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key change here was improved collaboration between PO and the Team for fleshing out the feature.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          The very act of each team member telling a size for the story, followed by sharing the thought behind that number helped elicit and surface all inputs and questions from all the team. This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key change here was participation of all the team members and reaching out to the PO for missing information.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          I said, \u201cAnother principle is Data driven organization of Leading business. AI can be used with great advantage to generate data and also analyse it. But, if we are making decisions based on this data, we need to ensure the correctness of the data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Another principle that can benefit from the new advances is No active inertia. AI can be used to study current systems and suggest better and more efficient processes and systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also helped the team arrive at a common understanding of the story with participation from all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak.

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks. They may lack courage to take risks, take actions & decisions on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Meditation\/Mindfulness practices are a great toolset for enhancing Self-Awareness.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Empathy Vs Sympathy","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"empathy-vs-sympathy","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-28 22:05:30","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-28 16:35:30","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999717","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999660,"post_author":"20","post_date":"2025-02-17 11:11:18","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-17 05:41:18","post_content":"\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  I said, \u201cAnother principle is Data driven organization of Leading business. AI can be used with great advantage to generate data and also analyse it. But, if we are making decisions based on this data, we need to ensure the correctness of the data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Another principle that can benefit from the new advances is No active inertia. AI can be used to study current systems and suggest better and more efficient processes and systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Another is High levels of EQ. One of the main worries that AI brings is the loss of human connection. Human connections are essential even when we allow AI to take over many jobs You may find that this human connection is slipping away with the taking over by AI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Another is Protection against cyberattacks.

The template used by various teams were collated into a single template, reviewed, and enhanced\/updated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak.

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

The very act of butterfly struggling & breaking the shell strengthens its wings to enable it to fly.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks. They may lack courage to take risks, take actions & decisions on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker. He said he rebelled & frowned at that time, but looking back, he says, it was the best thing to happen to shape his life.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key change here was improved collaboration between PO and the Team for fleshing out the feature.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also helped the team arrive at a common understanding of the story with participation from all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key change here was participation of all the team members and reaching out to the PO for missing information.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future.

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak.

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          This was not being done uniformly across all teams. The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also helped the team arrive at a common understanding of the story with participation from all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak.

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way. I have also been lucky to have a coach at crucial junctures of my life to facilitate this process of self-reflection.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Challenges with Changing Oneself \u2013 My personal experience","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"challenges-with-changing-oneself-my-personal-experience","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2025-03-31 15:54:28","post_modified_gmt":"2025-03-31 10:24:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.pm-powerconsulting.com\/?p=999846","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":999717,"post_author":"33","post_date":"2025-02-28 09:35:13","post_date_gmt":"2025-02-28 04:05:13","post_content":"\n

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Another is Protection against cyberattacks. AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key stakeholder\u2019s Product Manager, Engineering Head and Sales Head collaborated to define what should the Release goal<\/strong> be for the subsequent and adjacent releases. It was not something cast in stone, changes could be incorporated if needed, but would need a review of the plans and consensus to make changes. All agreed that these changes would be recorded to help understand the changing needs and how they can be managed better going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was a shift from the diffused accountability of the initial days, which had worked well when they were a smaller team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The template used by various teams were collated into a single template, reviewed, and enhanced\/updated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key change here was improved collaboration between PO and the Team for fleshing out the feature.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  The very act of each team member telling a size for the story, followed by sharing the thought behind that number helped elicit and surface all inputs and questions from all the team. This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key change here was participation of all the team members and reaching out to the PO for missing information.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from.

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Another is Protection against cyberattacks. AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key stakeholder\u2019s Product Manager, Engineering Head and Sales Head collaborated to define what should the Release goal<\/strong> be for the subsequent and adjacent releases. It was not something cast in stone, changes could be incorporated if needed, but would need a review of the plans and consensus to make changes. All agreed that these changes would be recorded to help understand the changing needs and how they can be managed better going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was a shift from the diffused accountability of the initial days, which had worked well when they were a smaller team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from.

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Another is Protection against cyberattacks. AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key stakeholder\u2019s Product Manager, Engineering Head and Sales Head collaborated to define what should the Release goal<\/strong> be for the subsequent and adjacent releases. It was not something cast in stone, changes could be incorporated if needed, but would need a review of the plans and consensus to make changes. All agreed that these changes would be recorded to help understand the changing needs and how they can be managed better going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was a shift from the diffused accountability of the initial days, which had worked well when they were a smaller team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  This was not being done uniformly across all teams. The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

They crave for recognition rather than they recognizing others. They will not know how to deal with failures and how to receive feedbacks.

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key stakeholder\u2019s Product Manager, Engineering Head and Sales Head collaborated to define what should the Release goal<\/strong> be for the subsequent and adjacent releases. It was not something cast in stone, changes could be incorporated if needed, but would need a review of the plans and consensus to make changes. All agreed that these changes would be recorded to help understand the changing needs and how they can be managed better going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The template used by various teams were collated into a single template, reviewed, and enhanced\/updated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key change here was improved collaboration between PO and the Team for fleshing out the feature.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          The very act of each team member telling a size for the story, followed by sharing the thought behind that number helped elicit and surface all inputs and questions from all the team. This helped with and inclusion of any missing details in the story and have a common understanding of the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution.

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor. He was required to go to factory by bicycle (not car), have lunch at workers\u2019 canteen, \u2026. and no extra privileges than any other worker.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key stakeholder\u2019s Product Manager, Engineering Head and Sales Head collaborated to define what should the Release goal<\/strong> be for the subsequent and adjacent releases. It was not something cast in stone, changes could be incorporated if needed, but would need a review of the plans and consensus to make changes. All agreed that these changes would be recorded to help understand the changing needs and how they can be managed better going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from. It is possible though it takes powerful motivation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The need here was to help teams improve backlog management, ensure delivery readiness, and align backlog items with strategic value. To ensure that vague and scattered requirements are transformed into structured, value-driven backlogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Along with this the level of collaboration between the stakeholders \u2013 Product Manager, Product Owners, Engineering Head, Functional Leads, Tech Leads and Teams; had to be enhanced and sustained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key stakeholder\u2019s Product Manager, Engineering Head and Sales Head collaborated to define what should the Release goal<\/strong> be for the subsequent and adjacent releases. It was not something cast in stone, changes could be incorporated if needed, but would need a review of the plans and consensus to make changes. All agreed that these changes would be recorded to help understand the changing needs and how they can be managed better going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from.

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The need here was to help teams improve backlog management, ensure delivery readiness, and align backlog items with strategic value. To ensure that vague and scattered requirements are transformed into structured, value-driven backlogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key stakeholder\u2019s Product Manager, Engineering Head and Sales Head collaborated to define what should the Release goal<\/strong> be for the subsequent and adjacent releases. It was not something cast in stone, changes could be incorporated if needed, but would need a review of the plans and consensus to make changes. All agreed that these changes would be recorded to help understand the changing needs and how they can be managed better going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was a shift from the diffused accountability of the initial days, which had worked well when they were a smaller team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from.

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

She calls this pattern as the \u2018Rescuer\u2019 \u2013 one who jumps in to solve the problem rather than help the person\/child to find the solution. Such Managers\/Leaders\/Parents do not develop other people\/children, instead they diminish their capabilities.<\/p>\n\n

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key stakeholder\u2019s Product Manager, Engineering Head and Sales Head collaborated to define what should the Release goal<\/strong> be for the subsequent and adjacent releases. It was not something cast in stone, changes could be incorporated if needed, but would need a review of the plans and consensus to make changes. All agreed that these changes would be recorded to help understand the changing needs and how they can be managed better going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was a shift from the diffused accountability of the initial days, which had worked well when they were a smaller team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some features all were not able to contribute on the sizing, but were able to get an understanding of the features. This exercise helped immensely with surfacing of the dependencies and risks. One of the changes here was involving all the team leads that helped improving alignment and collaboration across the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were educated and coached\/mentored for creating good user stories. The INVEST criteria was used, which helped ensure that the stories were well defined and delivered value to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PO\u2019s participation helped the team avoid making assumptions, by providing required information\/details. This also helped surface items where more information was to be gathered by the PO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizing was done using planning poker and story points. The story and the acceptance criteria were read out, if it lacked clarity and the team was unable to size it, it was set aside for additional discussion with the PO. The team arrived at the size in two rounds for most of the stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I came to college in a big city, I noticed many bright minds from diverse backgrounds from different parts of the country.\u00a0 While it was all overwhelming, it led to an important a decision that \u201cI need to become a better me!\u201d. As life unfolded, I realized that is not a one-time decision but a lifetime one! There is always room for a better me in the future. Despite this awareness, I have always struggled with change and still do. In this post, I would like to reflect on my challenges with changing myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While five stages are discretely called out, people tend to cycle back and forth through these stages as they change. Often a sixth stage is called out called \u2018Relapse\u2019 when people go back to their old ways after a period of maintenance and then they start all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That does not mean I change myself easily. When it comes to exploring the challenges with personal change, one\u2019s own experience is the best teacher. In the college days, change just meant learning new tangible skills. For example, I wanted to improve my spoken English or to hone my Hockey skills. As I started working, I realized I was required to change my behaviour and often based on feedback. Changes were also identified by observing others \u2013 some people I looked up to and wished to emulate; some I did not respect and not chose not to follow. As I grew in my career and got into family life, demands for personal change grew. Some reactive changes were necessitated by the situation, but some proactive ones were required by my dreams and goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start with it took long time to prepare for the change \u2013 overthinking can be a curse. Once I make a change, I expected results too soon and tended to go back to the drawing board. Quantum of the change tended to be too small to have an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Simply because Robin Sharma said so in one of his talks! 5am Club sounded like a good idea and many successful people did it. After all, my grandmother used to get up very early and my mother gets up at 4am in the morning. It must be a good idea, right? I did it for five days in a row and was ecstatic. On day six, I was a bit sleepy and was wondering if 5:30am will do! For a month, every day I will set the alarm for 5am and negotiate with self. I started getting out of bed as and when I felt like that morning! Does that happen to you? Re-negotiating decisions is major challenge for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can only rationalize away inaction for a short while. Guilt is a sure symptom of downward spiral setting in. It is a state that takes enormous mental energy to bounce back from.

I found I do not need a big goal but a strong one even it is small. It is the feeling that goes into it that makes the difference. In my example of 5am Club, there was a reason but a bit weak. There wasn\u2019t enough emotional component to the reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An attitude sets in where it is ok not to change. Reason for change fades into the background of life. When this happens to me, I fall off the change process and learn to live with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the danger lies in branding yourself as \u2018undisciplined\u2019 or \u2018weak\u2019, or worse \u2018a failure\u2019. That kind of belief about yourself results in regressive behaviours. One does not take up new opportunities when they present themselves. If a new situation is thrust upon you, you go about it with the belief that you don\u2019t have what it takes and it naturally results in poor performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These challenges are certainly not insurmountable. While I did not talk much about remedies for each of the challenges, I believe there is one universal remedy: process of deep self-reflection. A dose of self-reflection without judging yourself can go a long way.

He was asked to work in Tata Steel at Jamshedpur, on probationary for 2 years, not as a Manager\/Owner, but as a worker in the shopfloor.

Large data and AI together can produce unbelievable results with the AI machines spotting patterns, styles, and structures in the data they see. When it has learned from these data sets, it can make new content all on its own. AI can bring in more productivity and efficiency, allow for better decision-making, help in experiments, and innovation and accessibility. Of course, there are also dangers like job loss, information bias, privacy issues, transparency issues and so on. Some of the ways these dangers can be mitigated are developing internationally recognized guidelines on the use of AI, address biases and lack of transparency, and invest in awareness of the benefits and dangers of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Trustworthiness is another area that gets affected. Leadership is majorly about trust and inspiration. Some of the issues coming from partnership with AI like job displacement, bias and discrimination, lack of empathy, making decisions based on fake information can affect a leader's trustworthiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI can help process vast amounts of data, learn from patterns, and quickly detect and thus prevent threats. Leaders must be smart enough to ensure the harnessing of AI power to detect and prevent attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
