Meeting Effectiveness?

Remember the last time you came out of meeting room saying,"This was the good meeting !"

Rare quality observed in our public/ associate relations is an arrangement of good - focused meeting. Meeting arrangement is an art. Similar to arrangement of notations, perfect arrangements realize intended emotions in the mind of listener. Perfect meetings will pass on the very acute pointing message, pushing the attendees to work towards the goal, towards excellence.

Let us discuss how the foundation of the meeting is layed out, how meeting is happened and how it ends. Let us discuss how bad meeting comes into existence stone by stone. 

1.  Meeting is not scheduled well in advance. (If you call upon a meeting in 10-15 min, and don't have any subject of high emergency then participants are frustrated. Participants will try to avoid future meetings with you.)
2. No Agenda- This is the worst thing when you schedule the meeting. Its the ship without the captain. Well defined agenda provides some frame of mind for all the attendees which in turn gives head start towards the goal of the meeting.
3. Punctuality-If your meetings does not start at the given time then on future interactions nobody will show up at the given time. This is called recursive effect and it will eventually pull down your reputation. Punctuality is not just about starting on time but also finishing on time. Yes, if you can't finish on time then that's BAD. Time is precious for everyone, some of the meeting attendees may have appointments. That means, If you extend your meeting by 10 min and there are 10 people attending the  meeting. This means you are forcing 10 people to postpone their appointments. And now if these 10 people delayed their meetings by 10 min with 100 people, and effect continues. Consider how many people are losing their punctuality because of you.     "Please start your meeting on time and FINISH it on TiME."
4. Wavered- Fluctuating from  the main agenda would cost losing attention from attendees. Its difficult job to concentrate(appreciate it!), if you fluctuate from the points then people may lose interest from what you are saying. (Do remember.) Also this causes extra time, hampering your punctuality.
5.  Meeting minutes- In 'Life Of Pi', when Pi reaches Mexican sea shore he says,"I was expecting a final goodbye from Richard Parker.(the tiger)" Yes, We indeed expect a goodbye from everyone. Meetings too should not end abruptly. There should be a smooth end. You can end meeting with meeting minutes and corrected by others if something is wrong. These meeting minutes can be a good starting point for next well aligned(with overall goal) meeting.

Wish you for better next meeting on Monday!

Rape

The only consistent news I have read, since started reading the newspaper is sexual assault against women. The number of times I had seen the rape news is uncountable. But when it comes to the news I read about rapist booked by the jurisdictional system , the count hardly reaches 10. Delhi incident on 16 December 2012 and link of the events after that brought the sufferings of rape victims to the front page. My mind raised many questions to myself. I tried to give the appropriate, manipulative unsatisfactory answers to those.

Some of those questions were,
1. Is there a single secure women on this earth?
2. Those who say that she is the one 'who can create' (the best artist giving birth to new human), are they believing in what they are saying?
3. Where should I live, so that my girl child will get a safe and healthy social life?
4. If my to be first child is boy, am I supposed to be happy and content with it?
5. Why do men look at every other woman who pass by them?
6. They are not objects, they are humans. How should we teach our children to instill this message in their mind?
7. Many articles have said that Men should change? How can we achieve that? (How to change men)
...

One of the aftereffects of Delhi gang rape and link of events is that now in India at least some more rape cases are getting reported. Why did I say that, because the NGO's working to help victims of sexual assault often mention that the number of reported cases are the tip of the iceberg. Though we can't say that all the cases are getting reported now but at least some of them got media coverage. Media coverage have helped the victims to file an FIR or register a complaint against the rapist/s.This is the sad truth of police department.(I can't comment on the police departments of other countries)

I don't  know the answers to any of those questions. I know that if we men continue to do this then there wont be human race but something else. That something else would be similar to commercial chicken farm where some chicken only lay eggs, some chicken eggs are allowed to hatch because those chicken gain weight faster than its other counterparts. Similarly, human race will be converted to a men race where women are caged for reproduction and for entertainment. Are we going towards that kind of society?

We live in 21st  century. Most of the countries have officially accepted that men and women are same. They should be given the same rights, in greater part of the world they have same rights officially. Every women should know her rights and use them for betterment of herself and the society. You may connect this to education but studies can prove that no matter what is the color of her skin, no matter how much educated she is, no matter how poor or rich she is, no matter which side of the war she is supporting, no matter which country she is from, she is being raped. The worst form of global equality by human race.

Why women don't fight with the person who misbehaves with her, who tries to play with her dignity. May be they can't. Way of upbringing need to be changed. Why does she feel that she don't have power, She can withstand the labor pains.

Should we do these to protect our child from any kind of sexual abuse,
1. We have to teach our children the fighting skills like ancient times at very early age.
2. We must respect identity of our children as an individual.
3. Nobody should be allowed to touch them without their consent.
4.We should try to maintain a good communication with them that they don't need to hide anything from us.

Still I don't know, why does someone rapes another and how can they?
