Re: [www.keralites.net] Malala Yousafzai amazing answer on The Daily Show with Jon Stew

 

Malala is OK, But she does not deserve a  Nobel Prize. How can we give a prizeto Malala, that was earlier won by  Great Mother Theresa and other dignitaries. If the commitee select Malala then it will be a big blow to Nobel Prize. People will lose their image about Nobel Prize.

[www.keralites.net] 6 Tips for Resolving Conflicts

 


Resolving conflicts whether in office, in friends community or at home is a challenge. The situation sometimes get worst when nobody shows the flexibility on his/her stance. The below tips might help when you have been assigned (Or you assign it to yourself) to resolve the conflict.

 
1-Be fair regardless of your relation with different parties. Sometimes your closed one can be wrong. Hence make up your mind to be transparent and fair throughout.Judge people fairly.
2-Empathetic Listening is very important. Listen to all parties carefully. Put yourself in their shoes to understand their stance.
3-Carefullyanalyzethe statements from each party. List down the pros
and cons of the stance from each party. Sometimes both parties are right and sometimes both are wrong. In your analysis you need to find the option which gives maximum benefit to everyone. Article written by Junaid.Tahir
4-If the conflict is between two persons, consider a solution which neither party-A has proposed, neither B. Propose third solution which suits both persons. Consider Win-Win scenario where everyone gains something at the cost of compromise.
5-If you want to give advice to a party (which you think is wrong), give it privately. Don't do counseling when both are present. This will offend one party and may strain the relations further. Remember not tocriticise. Article written by Junaid.Tahir
6-Sometimes youngsters are right and old ones are wrong. If the issue is not too serious, request youngsters to be flexible. It always pay off. Remember that we have learnt so much from our seniors (bosses, team leads, parents and other senior family members). So this is the time to pay back to make them feel proud about their teachings and todevelop trustin relations.
 

 
Developing emotional intelligence is another approach to study people and understand them in depth. As per Wikipedia "Emotional intelligence (EI) is the ability to identify, assess, and control theemotionsof oneself, of others, and of groups" Learn this technique to improve your mental powers.

[www.keralites.net] Microsoft Excel: Pivot Table Tricks to Make You a Star

 

 

Fun & Info @ Keralites.netWe, data junkies, love pivot tables.We think pivot tables are solution for everything (except for may be global warming and that broken espresso machine down stairs).

Today, we are going to learn 5 awesome pivot table tricks that will make you a star.

Click on these links to jump to tips.

(If you are not familiar with basic pivot tables, you should check out thisexcellent pivot tables tutorial)
 

1. Drill down on your Pivots with Double click

This is by far the simplest and most powerful pivot table trick I have learned.Whenever you want to see the values behind a pivot field just double click on it.

Lets say, the sales of Lawrence in Middle region is $5,908 and you want to know which items contribute for this total, when you double click on the number $5,908 excel will show a list of all the records that add up to this number, neatly arranged in a new worksheet. Instant drill down.

See this magical trick in action.

2. Summarize Pivot Data by "Average" or some other formula

By default excel summarizes pivot data by "sum" or "count" depending on data type.But often you may want to change this to say "average", to answer questions like "what is the average sales per product". To do this, just right click on pivot table values (not on row or column headings) and select "summarize data by" and select "Average" option.

Fun & Info @ Keralites.net

(In excel 2003, you have to do this from "field settings" menu option)
 

3. Slice Dice your Pivot Tables with Grace

Re-arranging pivot table layouts is as easy as shuffling a pack of cards.Just drag and drop the fields from row areas to column areas(vice-a-versa) and you have the pivot table rearranged.

Here is a simple screencast explaining the secret

4. Show difference from last month (or year) without bending backwards

We all know that you can show monthly summaries using Pivots. But what if your boss wants you to also include "difference from previous month" as well? Now, dont rush back to source data and add new columns. Here is the right trick to make you a star.

  • Just use field settings to tell excel how you want the data to be summarized.
  • Right click on any pivot table value, select "value field settings"
  • Now go to "Show value as tab" and Change "Normal" to "Difference from"
  • Select "Previous" from Base-item area. Leave Base field as-is.

Now, your pivot is updated to show difference from previous column.

Bonus: There are quite a few value field settings you can mess with.Go play and discover something fun.Fun & Info @ Keralites.net
 

5. Add new dimensions to your Pivot Reports with Calculated Fields

Let us say you have both "sale" and "profit" values in your source data. Now, your boss wants to know "profit %" in the pivot report (defined as Profit/Sales). You need not add any extra columns in your source data, instead you can define custom calculated fields with ease and use them in pivot reports.

  • To do this, Go to pivot table options ribbon, select "formulas" > "calculated field"
  • Now define a new calculated field by giving it a name and some meaningful formula.
  • Make sure you adjust the cell formatting so that output of calculation can be displayed (for eg. change number to % format)

(In excel 2003, the formula option is available from Pivot menu in toolbar)
