TroubleOwners to TroubleShooters
Sometimes a burning issue becomes clearer once you place yourself in the midst of the same. This Friday evening turned out to be different from any other. Under the patronage of Dr. Chandrashekar Pandey and the efforts of Saugata (I year Full Time PGDBM), we had an open forum on the TATA-Singur land acquisition issue. The panel constituted Dr. Victor Louis Anthuvan and Prof. Jayaram K.
The talk was indeed an eye-opener as we saw the issue from various perspectives. It is not only a disturbing issue at the National level, but also has global implications. Some of the concerns included the setting of SEZs at the cost of humanity, the decline of agriculture, absence of debate or consensus before the implementation of such a development project. The key thing of the issue for future managers is the perspective of OWNING the problem and that too at the earliest. By doing so only will an individual be able to approach the problem and solve it.
Despite the time constraints, the debate was very constructive with lot of questions remaining unanswered. Nevertheless, it has triggered the thought process which is necessary before an opinion or solution can be reached. More debates are therefore inevitable.
