Abbey’s Doodles – Class Notes on Organizational Behaviour

Originally published on April 30, 2005This is a page from Abbey’s classnotes. The year was 1983 (see the marking on the tombstone). Abbey’s hatred for Gopher goes back a long way – need I say more?The doodles done in class provide a great view of life in the B-School.

    Hi Abbey!

    Very excited to hear about your ‘labor of love”………the synopsis is delightful, makes me nostalgic and transports me to the carefree college days when “Abhijit” was “Abhi or Abbey”, “Vineeta ” was “Vinnie”…..”Suparna” would be “Sonu”………”Mrs. Malhotra” would “Mallo” etc etc.

    Bahut saari puraani yaadein taaza ho gayeen……..typically “purani jeans aur guitar, mohalle ki woh chchat aur merey yaar” (Ali Haider)……….eagerly await this publication and ALL THE VERY BEST WITH YOUR VENTURE AS AN AUTHOR.

    Best regards,
    Vicky

    Are these really Abbey’s notes or did you make them up? Love the notes. Let me know if you want some from my college days. Great book.

    Absolut alles richtig. Liebe die bissigen Kommentare und die leicht zynischen Bemerkungen, die eindeutig auf einen praktischen Umgang mit den MBA’s dieser Welt hindeuten. Wenn eine grosse Fresse und arrogante Attitüde die einzigen Voraussetzungen für Erfolg werden – dann darf die Welt sich nicht über die Globalisierungsgegner wundern, dann wird Widerstand in der Tat zur Pflicht.

What gets measured is not the same as what matters, and rewarding the measure corrupts it. Not everything that counts can be counted. Extrinsic reward for measured performance crowds out the intrinsic motivation that made people good at the work in the first place
