Management Research is getting newer dimension with the popularity of MBAs across the globe. The progress of the study of Management is drastic compared to the other disciplines, especially in India. With the growing number of enthusiasts in this field of the Research in Management is giving newer perspective to the discipline. Various sub domains under management research is added and the recent one being an Information System / Technology. As every domain gives various insights and poses a challenge for the researcher to select from the wide array of the subject, this further leads to exploring new research being conducted or giving a new dimension to the existing research.

Based on the way the industries are growing and changes in the lifestyle, the same way every research need to align with the current and future needs. The new buzzwords like cloud computing, cash on delivery, globalization, social media, a way of playing games, virtual world, dynamics in e-governance & many more… are opening a new horizon in the research field.

The future of management research apart from getting deeper into the current problems shall see a drift in exploring kind of unimaginable/not real (the way the Hollywood Movies are made) or it can go back to the square one of getting more insights from the great epics from history.

Few of the challenges, the future of management research shall face are as below:

• ·        See greater challenges in getting the funds for the kind of extensive research that need to be conducted compared to the current or past research(s).
• ·         The dynamics in the redundancy of research should be eliminated and an ecosystem should support to make sure that every effort of Research should lead to the real contribution of knowledge.

The agenda for core research in management should be towards making the outcome of the research being implemented at the real-time which can be in the business sense or at the academic level and primarily it should be able to address the current / future needs & challenges.

Lead without a Title!

Lead without a Title!
<<Extract from August 2012 Netsoft's News Letter

Leadership is not associated only with the title; Leadership can be demonstrated at every role that we play. No job is big or small; all that matter is how we perceive the given job & influence others with the kind of value additions, initiative & the responsibility we shoulder.

“In this messy, disrupted world we now work within, leadership at every level has become the single best way to win." – Robin Sharma

An individual with good character radiates & gets identified by his unique contribution, steps up to Leadership. Keep leading without a title, start now! John Ruskin said “Do not think of your faults: look for what is good & strong & try to imitate it. Your faults will drop off like dead leaves, when the time comes.”

Idea towards Business Growth.

Idea towards Business Growth!
<<Extract from August 2012 Netsoft's News Letter

Innovative ideas are the competitive edge for most entrepreneurial companies. As Dhirubhai Ambani said “Think big, Think fast, Think ahead. Ideas are no one’s monopoly.” Ideas can come from anyway and it is not limited to the company's boundary or to specific sources, what matters is the quality of the idea.  

I urge you to come up with the productive ideas towards simplifying the work & process and make the delivery beneficial to all (customers, partners, you and the company).

“A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on.” – John F. Kennedy
“All achievements, all earned riches, have their beginning in an idea.” – Napoleon Hill

Ideas can be sought by the mindset of not knowing all, so that we can search for new ideas; learn good ideas from anything and everything, it can be from competitors, your inner circle, nature…; be genuinely interested in seeking new ideas and celebrate when someone comes up with the good one.
