Are all terrorists really Muslims?By Aakar Patel

[Stephen Cohen]

I spend a lot more time on different threads. So far right wing BJP supporters resort to personal attacks more than any Congress or AAP supporters.

It is they who begin the fight ; we only reply in KIND

We are very NICE people you see

That is because the markets in Pakistan are much more prone to farce. The "1rs pay" Shortcut Aziz for e.g. engineering one of the greatest stock market scams in history and no one ever got to know it till it was too late.

Anyway, better let our more extreme Indian friends fight it out here.. lest we be accused of off topic aatangvadipan.

To what I was saying ?

Its a bit more complicated than that; the capital markets in Pakistan haven't, unfortunately, developed as much as I would like them to so the lack of awareness and the ensuing culture of using financial techniques and strategies isn't conducive to a well developed career in financial management. The business challenges are another added dimension.

Ehhhm so how does it change the fact that the INC was not "being secular" ? Besides, INC actively supported them.

The fact remains, secularism is secularism, and nomatter how hard some Congress people or some RSS goons try to change its meaning magically, it remains what it is.

India was never meant to be a religious state and never will be as long as it wishes to be a modern, prosperous and stable nation.

Secularism is secularism, I got it. Thank you. You could have dumb it down for me in the very first post itself.

Oh, it all comes together. Not as an explicit exercise, not unless you are a major firm which can afford a full-fledged strategic planning department. But it is also a laughable error not to use these in real life, most typically in combination rather than in isolation.

What comes into life on a day-to-day basis is a balanced score card.

I could go on and on.

I hear what you're saying but do you really think that these things are given nearly as much importance in the real life as they are in the text books of business analysis ? I mean what I've seen practically are a few brain storming sessions at the end of which a series of key performance indicators are decided upon and the performance monitored and controlled accordingly. I am not saying for a second that the information contained within these models are not touched upon....they are....they most definitely are but maybe not in nearly the same disciplined and structured manner that they are when you're writing your academic thesis.

I mean obviously when your deciding whether you'd like to enter XYZ market or not you're bound to ask what kind of barriers to entry there are, who's going to take a chunk out of my profits etc but you're doing that intuitively not really explicitly by drawing up a bona fide Porter's 5 Forces model. And why because what are these models at the end of the day anyhow ? A carefully examined reflection of business intuition as displayed by some of the more successful business examples out there.

Its not as if a separate series of files are prepared in each organization dedicated solely to deconstructing the business as per these models and looking at things in a scientific manner to determine where we're going wrong ?

Or are there ?

I have a tough time even recognizing their existence. They're more like background noise. I consider several of them attention seeking w****s. Pay no attention and they squirm and pander. In the end they go away.

Even the simplest strategic direction I've decided so far - wearing my previous hat as business manager, specifically as CEO, has involved at least a business plan - for the bigger decisions - to a forecast and a detailed note, with tables and figures carefully annotated to indicate the sources and their authenticity.

Believe me, it works. Even a dumbed-down crude version works. Point to remember: work with cash and cash flow not with profits.

@Joe Shearer Long time sir. I see you've run into our younger and hardheaded crowd, give them some time.

How goes life?

No, your perception may have been tarred by selective amnesia. Actually it is equal for both sides. Just that the number of nationalists/'Hindu terrorist'/'Deshbhakts'(your take) are higher you may find a more prominent presence of the former. But as far as intensity goes, it takes two to tango.

I disagree completely. This is a totally biased statement. The Internet Hindus have brought the discussions here to the gutter. Just as they did on PTH.

Cause aap supporters are limited to Delhi, some dose of Twitter will help and congress supporters themselves don't want to be associated with congress like before - the level of corruption in prev two terms have robbed them of a lot of pride.
However, personal attack is common.
