[www.keralites.net] Don't say we aren't right for each other,

 

Be who you are and say what you feel,  because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had. The brightest future will always be based upon a forgotten past,  you can't go well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches. Let these words not only touch your eyes,  let them travel through your soul and let them rest in your heart as your rest in mine. Always remember that in some way or other you are somebody's angel,  even if you don't know it. Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer. As long as we have memories, yesterday remains, as long as we have hope tomorrow awaits,  as long as we have friendship, each day is never a waste Don't say we aren't right for each other, the way I see it we are not right for anybody else.   "If God be for us, who can be against us?"

[www.keralites.net] Health: 5 easy steps to keep your heart healthy

 

Health: 5 easy steps to keep your heart healthy

 

 

 

 

Want to keep your heart healthy? Then you need to know the following

:

 

Holly Andersen, director of education and outreach at the Ronald O. Perelman Heart Institute of NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital has offered some easy steps to improve heart health and overall well-being throughout the year.

 

Step 1: Know your numbers. Your blood pressure, cholesterol and triglyceride levels are the most important numbers you will need to know before you begin on the path to good heart health.

Step 2: Start walking. Exercise is the fountain of youth. A simple 20- to 30-minute walk a few days a week can actually reduce the risk of premature death by more than 50 percent.

 

Step 3: Laugh out

:

. Laughter really is the best medicine. Just 15 minutes of laughter is about equivalent to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise with respect to our cardiovascular health. Laughter has also been linked to the healthy function of blood vessels, an increase of the brain hormones that improve mood, and reduction of pain and anxiety.

 

Step 4: Focus on your waistline, not your weight. Your waistline is a better measurement of your overall health than your weight because the amount of fat around your waistline is directly linked to high blood pressure and high cholesterol and can place you at increased risk for diabetes.

Step 5: Get a good night's sleep. Sleep is one of the most undervalued elements of our daily routines, but it is absolutely vital to good health. Lack of sleep increases your blood pressure, induces stress, increases your appetite and slows down your metabolism, dampens your mood and decreases your cognition

[www.keralites.net] Effective Delegation

 

 

By Junaid Tahir:

 

 

Delegation is the art of asking a person to perform a task or series of task with full or partial ownership. In a professional domain, a typical organogram is a visual demonstration of delegation flow. Delegation Process in management is a critical thing all managers must consider because it's a known fact that employees do not leave organizations, they leave managers which is usually a result of poor delegation process the managers follow.  The management must consider the fact that replacing an employee costs from 50% to the annual salary of the employee hence they are required to be vigilant so as to retain the employees. From my recent training on Delegation Process I learnt that there are 4 phases of every Effective Delegation Process:

   

1.     Evaluation
2.    Handover
3.    Support
4.    Debrief
 

 

All phases are linear which means you need to complete one to move on to the next one.

 

Evaluation:
This phase requires you evaluating the task and evaluating the pool of mangers you have.  

First, consider the high level tasks for the project in hand. Now, map the skills, response time, importance and criticality with the short listed employees in order to select the right person. Low importance tasks can be given to any employee so you can save time by considering this approach. For selecting the right person consider his/her task management skills, people skills, analytical skills and general management skills. You can also consider delegating a project to multiple people to cross train your employees to become better future managers. Remember, the quality of a good manager is not to produce more followers but to produce more managers.

 

Handover:

Prepare, discuss, handover.

Consider the deliverables of the projects, required resources, frequency and format of project progress reporting, authority level to be given for making decisions during project execution.  By authority level I mean, when the delegate can take action at his own and when he needs approval from you. During handover phase, ask for suggestions instead of one-way information flow. This will boost confidence and improve your relationship with the employee. Appreciate the employee on why he/she has been selected. If delegating multiple people, delegate in one session so that everyone is sync about his/her role.

 

Support:

Monitor and counsel during execution.

Call for meeting when any risk occurs. Advocate for damage control by being a coach. Start with 'appreciative inquiry' method in which employee replies in terms of project success. Examples: What part of the project you are happy about? What's going good in the project? Etc. Ask questions to encourage not to desperate. For problematic parts, ask how do you think I would handle this situation? Avoid micro management unless it is seriously required because micro management kills the productivity of employee.

 

Debrief:

This phase of delegation happens when the task is completed.

Review the summary of project, associated documentation and general achievements. Discuss new issues; how were they resolved and what lessons were learnt. Consider the level of efforts and hard work the employee have put in and finally appreciate, honor and reward the delegatee.
