Management Lessons from the life of Lord Hanuman!

Lord Hanuman

Introduction

In this article, we will discuss the management and life lessons from Lord Hanuman.

Lord Hanuman was the devotee of Lord Rama. He had Rama and Sita always in his heart.

  • What is in your heart?
  • What you are looking for in your life?


Lord Hanuman only sees Lord Rama. So, it was easy for Hanuman to absorb and execute the instructions given by Lord Rama.

Everyone has the idea but they lack execution.

Ideation without execution leads to delusion.

Example of Lessons from the Life of Lord Hanuman

We can learn various lessons from the life of Lord Hanuman.

Let us take one example from his life.

In Lanka, when Laxman was unconscious during the war between Rama and Ravana. Rama asked Hanuman, “Can you bring the Sanjeevani Booti to save the life of Laxman?”

Hanuman could have said, “Lord, I have applied for two days leave. I will not be able to go. It is very difficult to work. You can give me some easy job.” But, he has not said that.

There are two things – Initiative and Finitiative.

Lots of people can take initiative but finitiative is taken by only those who can take responsibility.

Responsibility is one thing that is never given, it is always taken.

In odd circumstances, your boss will only search for the employee who is more responsible and reliable.

Lord Hanuman is a live example of accountability, ownership, initiative, and responsibility.

Lord Hanuman could have said that Sanjeevani Booti is far away and it is not in my Key Responsibility Areas (KRA) and Key Accountability Areas (KAA). But, he has not said this.

He went to the Himalayas with very high speed to bring Sanjeevani Booti.

When he reached the Himalayas, he was not able to identify the Sanjeevani Booti.

He could have come back and said to Lord Rama, “Lord, you have not provided the sample specification. If you have shown me the sample, then I would be able to bring it. I was not able to find it.”

And Lord Rama would have accepted the Hanuman’s reply because he actually not has the sample.

But, Lord Hanuman brought the whole mountain with him to Lanka and said, “Please check and find the Sanjeevani Booti. I was not able to identify it. You have to spend 2 extra minutes in it.”

So, Lord Hanuman could have said no or he could have stopped at someplace. But, he did it.

How to Multiply Your Business without Giving Discount?

Business without Giving Discount?

Introduction

  • Is discount killing your business?
  • Do you want to know the most important factor in increasing your sales?
  • Do you want to multiply your business without giving discount?

Traditional shopkeepers, traders, and small merchants often adopt conventional strategies such as discounting, overdraft, extended credit period and freebies to increase sales.

Vendors and shopkeepers complain that to compete with the low-priced products imported from China, they end up giving discounts and freebies to attract customers and multiply your business.

Although such strategies may work for small businesses for a short period of time, they can’t retain the market for a longer period for big corporates.

To help the Indian business community increase sales and revenue and attract customers by understanding their nerve, we have compiled the following 5 powerful techniques that will help you to multiply your business without giving discounts.

Tip #1: Identify the Critical Success Factor of Your Customer

It is one of the methods to multiply your business without giving discounts


Just selling your product using any sales and marketing strategy is not your job, instead of understanding your customer’s money-making model and making your customer’s business successful is your job.
  • You have to enter your customer’s life to understand his/her business by becoming a trusted partner.
  • Try to enter your customer’s business and identify how you can help him to increase his earnings. Once you start helping your customer in running his business, he will become your loyal customer. This will help you to multiply your business.

Tip #2: Identify the Critical Success Factor of Your Customer’s Customer

  • Even after understanding your customer’s business, it is imperative for you to understand the business of your customer’s customer.
  • This is a very unconventional way to make a loyal customer by contributing to the critical success of his customer. It will help you to multiply your business.
    “Don’t act like a Sales Man, act as a Consultant”
  • Try to understand how your customer’s customer is generating income which is called success consulting practice.
  • If you contribute to the success of the customer’s customer by matching their needs, then your direct customer will become your loyal customer.

Tip #3: Identify the Critical Success Factor of Your Customer’s Competitor

  • Since you understood the critical success factor of your customer and your customer’s customer, it’s time to understand the critical success factor of your customer’s competitor.
  • Try to enter the business of your customers’ competitor and find out what policies and techniques they are using to run their business successfully.
  • After understanding your customer’s competitor’s business model, integrate the required changes in your product, which can help your customer to compete with his competitor and increase his business.
  • After the success of your customer’s business, he/she will become your loyal customer. This will help you to multiply your business.

Tip #4: Determine Where you should Focus


Don’t focus on conventional techniques of business to allure your customers like pricing, discounting, promotional schemes and over drafting, as these techniques don’t retain your business for a long duration.
  • You have to “focus on churning your innovative strategies to increase sales, gross margin, revenue, inventory turnover, cash flow, brand equity, customer acquisition, customer retention, profitability, liquidity, growth, productivity, and velocity.”
  • Small merchants and salesmen often focus on discount, overdraft, credit period and low-cost techniques, which after a certain period of time start hurting their profitability. On the other hand, big corporates focus on this innovative tool to influence their customer’s buying behavior to get an upper hand over their competitors.

 

Tip #5: Customer-Centric Organization

“Customer’s critical success factor should be the foundation of your corporate strategy.”

  • Restructure your organization in a way that it’s each and every department works towards contributing to the need of focused customers. Organization’s every department should direct their efforts to add value to the biggest customer’s critical success factor.
  • Engage all departments in brainstorming game-changing ideas to build customer-centric strategies to increase the sale of your product. This will help you to multiply your business.

All the abovementioned tips will help you to multiply your business without giving discounts.

How to Handle Tough Situations in Life

?Introduction

  • Do you get nervous in tough situations?
  • Do you want to know how to handle tough situations?

For handling tough situations, there is only one formula, i.e.

Event + Response = Outcome
 

Event means what is happening around you or what are the circumstances.

The response is your choice, i.e., how do you respond or deal with the circumstance. 

The outcome is the result of your response to that event.

Out of event, response, and outcome, what is in your hands?

You neither have event nor outcome in your hands. There is only one thing in your hands, i.e. response.

So, to know how to handle tough situations, you need to understand the event and response or react accordingly.

Reaction is thoughtless while response is thoughtful.
 

The problem (or event) that is happening in your life is not the problem. But, considering a problem as a problem is actually a bigger problem. 

How do you respond to that problem or the circumstance? This is important.

Be Mentally Strong, Not Strongly Mental
 

Circumstances can be anything. They can either make things or break things. They can either make you strongly mental or mentally strong. 

It depends on your choice how would you like to lead your life: 

  • By chance or by choice
  • By default or by design

Lots of people are not choosing or controlling their emotions but their emotions are choosing or controlling them.

For handling tough situations, you need to make your mind mentally strong.

Some people are directed by their emotions while some are directing their emotions.

Some people take instructions from their mind while some are giving instructions to their mind.

 

Event should not have the capability to change your outcome instead your response to the event should have the ability to change your outcome. 

If an event is bad and your response is also bad, then the outcome will definitely be bad.

If an event is bad but the response is good, then it may be possible that outcome is good. 

Lord Krishna said in Gita, ’Karam karenge; ho sakta hai fal mile, ho sakta hai fal na mile.’

If you do not do your job, then it is confirmed that you will not get the output.

How to handle tough situations?

For handling tough situations, you need to bounce back in tough times. 

Every successful man whether Picasso, Abraham Lincoln, Gandhi or any other successful man in the world, ’All the success stories in the world are the stories of great failures.’ But, it is their ability to bounce back in tough times that makes them successful.

You don’t become successful just by reacting. You become successful by responding to a tough time. 

Tough times tell a person that you are tougher than the tough times. 

Choice is power.

Don’t be push-start, be self-start. 

You have the power to start yourself right now.
 

Response is Everything

There is nothing in the event; everything is in the response. How do you respond to this event will determine your outcome.

So, for handling tough situations, you need to understand how to respond to an event. 

For Example:

A small boy lost his father at a young age and his mother and relatives left him. Now, the same event:

1. can make the boy mentally strong or strongly mental

2. can give him either a hopeless end or endless hope 

3. can give him either breakdown or breakthrough

It will all depend on what he chooses.

 

Whatever has happened is your experience. What you are is your existence. Experience and existence are different. Do not depend on your experiences. You can’t go back.

Have a better response to having a great outcome in your life.

According to the 2.14 Shloka of Bhagavad Gita:

?gam?p?yino ’nity?s

tans-titik?hasva bh?rata

Shri Krishna said in Bhagavad Gita, ’winter, summer, happiness, grief, respect or disrespect will come and go as they are temporary, but one must learn to tolerate them without being disturbed.’

The event is temporary. Your response is always with you. Keep choosing.

Whenever you fall, you should bounce back in tough times always. Your response will create a great outcome. You are born to create history on the planet earth.

Why Family Business Success Planning is Important?

Introduction

  • Does your family-owned business falling?
  • How to make a Family Run Business successful?

??Hundreds of big family-run businesses collapsed over the last few decades in India due to a lack of efficient family business succession planning.

Most often, conflict among family members owing to leadership and wealth management and lack of long term planning lead to debacle of family-run businesses in India

 

In the view of problems faced by family-run business owners, the following 5 steps will help you to make proper family business succession planning process in the long term. 

Step #1: Long Term Leadership and Strategy

It is the first step of family business succession planning. 

The family-owned business that lacks long term leadership and strategy doesn’t go a long way. Success and longevity of a business depend on the long term vision and mission for executing strategies. 

A family run business often has old-fashioned leadership, which is incapable of formulating innovative execution strategies, involving new capital and people for a longer period.

With paternalistic control over its day-to-day affairs, such businesses are incapable of recruiting external people. 

Such a conservative style of doing business may work for a short period but fails in the long run. 

A leader in the family-run business must be capable of making an action plan for a longer period to maintain its credibility in the market. 

Step #2: Succession Planning

Pathetic family business succession planning has long been the prime reason behind their failure since centuries in India. 

The absence of systematic succession planning of business often triggers conflict among family members on the exit of an incumbent. 

According to the PwC report, ’Only 15% of family-owned businesses have a robust succession plan.’

During a sudden crisis of leadership, if there is no systematic pipeline of leadership, family members start confronting each other for the succession of business and end up hurting business.

You should also become overseer and permitter like Krishna. Look at a situation or event from a distance and have a better understanding of the event before reacting.
This will help you to manage stress in life.
 

Do not get involved in a situation because existence and experience are different. You need to look at things from a different perspective.

How to Measure Customer Satisfaction?

Introduction

  • Do you know whether your customers are dissatisfied or satisfied with you?
  • Do you know how to measure customer satisfaction?
  • Do you know the Net Promoter Score calculation formula?

All this is Very Simple!

To know how to measure customer satisfaction, you need to first understand how to take feedback from the customer. Companies used to take customer feedback through feedback forms.

You need to bring a little change in your feedback form to evaluate whether your customers are also your potential unpaid business developers.

Are they your potential promoters?

Are they positive, neutral, or negative about you?

You can determine this by taking feedback from the customers on a scale of 0-10.


How Your Customers Rate You?

  • People who rate you between 0 and 6 are detractors – These are those people who are not at all happy with your company, goods or services. They will post negative things about you on social media. They will write various negative things about you in your customer feedback forms. These people will never recommend you to anyone. They will never allow their family and friends to go to you. In their personal, professional, and social life, they will make sure that nobody goes to you.
  • People who rate you between 7 and 8 are neutrals –  If someone goes to these people and ask about their experience with your company, goods or services, they will say it was ok or it was fine. These people will neither promote you nor defame you. They will not allow you to put their reputation on stake to be used to favor your brand.
  • People who rate you between 9 and 10 are your unpaid promoters –  Whenever somebody asks them anything about your industry, they will recommend you strongly. These are those people who will always try your new products and services. Whenever any of your new products come to the market, they will buy it. It is very likely that they can buy your products even at higher prices.

For any organization, it is important to calculate Net Promoter Score (NPS).

(NPS) Net Promoter Score Calculation Formula:
Suppose, if out of 100 people, 40 people give you a rating between 0-6, 10 people have given you 7 and 8 ratings, and 50 people have given you a rating between 9 to 10, then your Net Promoter Score calculation formula will be:

NPS = Promoters (P) – Detractors (D) [+/- Neutrals (N)]

= 50 – 40 (+/- 10)

As neutrals will have no effect on your NPS score, so:

NPS = 50 – 40 = 10%

So, your NPS is 10%, it means that out of 100, 10 people will promote you.

Your NPS should be higher and positive.

Net Promoter Score calculation formula will help you to figure out your current customer satisfaction level, brand loyalty level, and brand loyalty measurement index. This figure will help you to strategize your future plans.

Measure your detractors and make a note of the complaints.

According to the new management strategy, the complaint is a gift. So, catch it because it will help you to strategize in the near future.

Neutrals will always remain neutrals. Try to engage promoters strategically and use them for your Brand Promotion.


You should listen to your detractors and solve their complaints otherwise they will keep on speaking negatively about you.

With the help of strategies of how to measure customer satisfaction given as above, you can understand what your customers’ needs, and scale up your business.

J-Curve in business is a situation when a business makes a steep upward movement after the persistent downfall.

Let us understand J-curve growth in the business world with the help of some examples.

Instagram
   

It started as a mobile gaming application named Burbn but failed as it was a heavy application to run on mobile phones.

However, people liked the function of uploading photographs by taking selfies.      

It was re-launched again with the name ’Instagram’ with full features of photo uploading and sharing and it gets J curve in business.

Flipkart and Amazon
      

They started as small online book stores. After learning from mistakes, they brought extensive changes in their business model and finally, they get J curve in business.

Paytm
        

J-curve effect could well be understood by how Paytm became India’s number 1 payment transfer platform over the night. 

It started as a small online mobile recharge website, which was a failure.    

With astounding J-curve growth, it bounced back and became India’s largest online payment platform.

Facebook
    

It started as an online dating site, named, Hot or Not
. It failed because people did not want to be disliked by others in public.

Learning from previous experiences, Mark Zuckerberg launched Facebook that became the world’s biggest social media platform. 

Shopify

It was started as a snowboard equipment venture. It proved to be a failure.    

It was launched as an online platform for budding entrepreneurs to use this to customize their online store, build a new sales channel, manage unlimited inventory and track your sales and growth trend. From this online platform, it gets J curve in business.

It was initially launched as an online socially responsible platform to mobilize people towards any social cause.

It was converted into a category crusher, where a group of people come for heavy negotiation and discounting and it got J curve in business.

Twitter

ODEO was a mobile application used to search and subscribe podcasts. It could not sustain itself in the market against Apple’s iTunes. It was launched again as Twitter and today it is the world’s biggest microblogging platform.

Starbucks

Till 1983, Starbucks sold coffee beans and coffee machines.

While traveling to Europe, Howard Schultz, the founder of Starbucks got an idea to sell brewed coffee to customers.

Today, it is the largest chain of coffeehouses across the world.

Android
        

Similar was the story of Android which was launched by a group of people in California in 2003 as a platform to connect the camera with the computer.

It got J-curve growth when Google acquired Android in 2005 and brought significant changes in it. Today it is the single largest mobile operating system in the world.

In the above example, you can observe that no business became successful in the first attempt. They had to taste the failure, before becoming successful.

Your first product is never your final product.

Your first product is meant only for testing. So, if you get failed, then do not worry. Learn from the mistakes you made and build an improvement cycle.
