Theme of my (career) dream

As usual this time of the year, like many other companies, we have our annual performance review and career related discussions. I have had fairly interesting change in my profile this time. I look forward to maximize our performance by aligning my talents in line with the new team.

i have come across someone who relates a lot to what i would like to do and also the manner in which i would like to do that.

The person is - Robert Scoble.

If you don't know who he is, "Well, you need to crawl out of that big rock you have been hibernating in".

Why do i relate to him?

1. professional recognition he has - click here to check what The Economist wrote about him in Feb'05

2. frankness & honesty that he conveys - my love on these aspects is based on the read and hear i have done on him over last week or so

3. affection and sincerity he has for family - this is what i liked most, that he is taking 1 month off in August'06 to spend time with his mother and clean up her place!! Not that any other son won't like to do, being able to do this in today's fast moving world is great. I also read that he has been scheduling time for his son's school on key dates. He works closely with his wife in life and thus leaving life fully each day, probabily one day at a time.

Here is my wishing him all the good luck for his new initiatives and I hope he would visit India soon as indicated in his interview to Kiruba.

I also hope to evolve as "unofficial official credible" spokesperson for organizations and bodies i am associated with............
