💼 Work Hard, Reap Rewards – A Question of Balance 💡 We At Tec Intuition, we believe in the power of dedication and hard work to drive progress. Recently, Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy Sir, highlighted the importance of working 70 hours a week to boost India’s GDP. He believes that those who have benefitted from the nation’s resources must give back by dedicating their time and energy to the country’s progress. I resonate with his perspective—commitment and long hours are often key to success, especially in the tech and consulting industry. However, while we encourage hard work, we also strongly believe in the need for fair compensation. Those who dedicate such significant portions of their time should be rewarded appropriately, not only with competitive salaries but also with strong benefits, work-life balance, and opportunities for career growth. India’s growth and the success of companies depend on the well-being of their employees. A balance of hard work and fair reward can fuel innovation, efficiency, and national prosperity. At Tec Intuition, we are committed to ensuring that the growth of our workforce goes hand in hand with the growth of our nation.

https://lnkd.in/eS7rsch6 To thrive in a challenging environment, you must work harder if you're surrounded by individuals who: Repeat their mistakes without learning from them, Resist adopting automation for repetitive tasks, Create unnecessarily complex processes to satisfy their egos, or Lack of innovative thinking. In such a setting, you might find yourself working 70+ hours a week just to navigate these challenges. Alternatively, strive to surround yourself with people who: Embrace change, Seek smarter, more efficient ways of working, and Prioritize innovation and adaptability.

Whilst, thinking how to comment, i posted to ChatGPT asking for it to opine. Here is what it gave (part of it here). It appears social media messages can be screened by AI before its allowed to blast out to public. Era of the AI is to come in everywhere for sure. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChatGPT: While the message stresses the importance of effort, it risks sounding dismissive of the systemic challenges that many Indians face daily. True leadership involves empathy, understanding the nuances of socio-economic disparity, and inspiring collective action rather than oversimplifying complex issues.

70-Hours Work: Sorry Mr NRN Murthy, There's More To Life Than Work. Read on: https://rb.gy/2wpbqb #InfosysDiaries #BhavishAgarwal #70hoursaweek #narayanamurthy #bhavishagarwal #infosys #ola #worklifebalance #worklife #worklifebalancetips

The complexity of India's evolving work culture. Infosys’ billionaire Mr Narayana Murthy’s 70-hour work week advice has been lapped up by traditional, orthodox business owners while harshly criticized by the youth of the country especially after the tragic demise of 26 years old Anna Sebastian Perayil of EY Pune due to cardiac arrest caused by heavy workload and office stress. A flag-bearer of healthy work-life balance and work ethics, Namita Thapar called Mr Narayana Murthy's advice a “crock of bullshit.” She further explained, "So, I think for founders and high stakeholders, who make tons of money—go for it. Work 24 hours a day forever! But I think for the common man and woman... (there needs to be) a certain number of hours that they are supposed to work." Thapar further stated that as her family owns 80% of the $3 billion valued entity Emcure, she can work 20 hours a day, but not her employees, who “doesn’t share the same financial upside.” Thapar raised concerns about the physical and mental health implications of extended work hours and high stress levels particularly for salaried employees who lack the same level of financial motivation like the business owners. Globally, the conversation around work hours has evolved to balance flexibility, productivity and employee well-being. Companies are increasingly recognizing that employees' health and satisfaction contribute to long-term success, prompting a shift toward more flexible work arrangements, mental health support and clearer boundaries between work and personal life. However, we all know that extra ordinary success requires unwavering dedication and effort, regardless of fixed working hours. All the successful people we see today have worked extremely hard to be where they are. Young professionals should be prepared to push themselves early in their careers but also recognize the importance of creating a sustainable balance. The conversation also reflects a larger trend in global work culture, as organizations grapple with finding the right balance between flexibility, efficiency and employee satisfaction.

Is Your Company Ignoring a Key Driver of Success? 🚀 Many businesses in India still shy away from investing in employee health checkups. Why? Common barriers include cost concerns, a lack of awareness about benefits, and the perceived administrative burden. But here’s the truth: prioritising employee health not only leads to higher productivity and reduced absenteeism but can also enhance your compensation package! Offering health checkups can be part of salary increments, making employees feel valued while promoting well-being. 💡 Plus, it’s tax-efficient! Companies can save significantly by deducting health expenses, reducing taxable income. Solutions: 1. Educate: Companies like Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) share success stories about health programs improving employee morale and productivity. 2. Engage Employees: Infosys involves employees in wellness initiatives, tailoring programs to their needs. 3. Simplify Processes: Wipro utilises technology to streamline health checkups, making it easier for employees to participate. Let’s break the stigma and make health a priority. Healthy employees are happier, more productive, and contribute to a thriving workplace! 🌟 #EmployeeWellness #HealthAndWellness #WorkplaceHealth #CorporateWellness #Leadership #Productivity #EmployeeEngagement #TaxSavings #TCS #Infosys #Wipro #hr #people

Though Indian talent flourishes overseas and are hugely successful . Expats struggle in India, even though they are hugely successful in different geographies . The reason could be the following- 1. Expats find it difficult to emotionally connect with a very diverse mindset. 2. There is far more ambiguity , uncertainty and diversity which they find difficult to comprehend. 3. Things may or may not be black and white, so reading between the lines becomes important. 4. Expats that emotionally connect with Indian ethos find it much easier than those who have negative feelings about Indian culture and mindset. Love to get your views on this. Also, what works or does not work in India.
