DECEMBER 16, 2017 WAS THE FIFTH ANNIVERSARY OF NIRBHAYA INCIDENCE IN DELHI. ONE OF THE RAPISTS HAD SAID, 'GOOD AND DECENT WOMEN DON'T VENTURE OUT OF THEIR HOUSE AFTER 9 PM...' THIS PROVES RAPISTS ARE VICTIMS OF:
1. Lack of happy healthy childhood with proper parenting, schooling along with the progressive and pragmatic social environment.
2. The above-mentioned factors have a negative influence in the form of gender bias, prejudice, false self-perception, an unrealistic expectation set by parents, self, a community in the form of intra and inter-community influence. This is eventually extrapolated in personal and professional identity.
3. The influence listed as the second point makes the person feel helpless and allows his fear, apprehension and self doubt prey on him making him or her aggressive, vindictive with a domineering, complaining and negative attitude towards life.
4. Such a person can be easily manipulated into repressive and anti-social activities as such a person considers self-discipline as a sign of weakness and an enquiring mind as defiance against his authority.
5. Such a person exploits the social hypocrisy to his personal benefit.
The purpose of this post on a professional networking site: LinkedIn is numerous:
1. The professional life is not in isolation the personal life and this is quite evident from the posts of various LinkedIn members sharing obscene and improper messages they receive from LinkedIn members with a rhetoric reminder that LinkedIn is a professional networking site. This exhibits our endorsement of social hypocrisy of personal and professional life and proves the cause of the work-life imbalance we experience.
2. The above reason leads to the reason of organisations often turning blind eye to the code of conduct or ethics that we are aware of as corporate ethics. So, the question holds good, can professional networking site, LinkedIn has a separate code of conduct than the other networking sites like Facebook, Twitter et al?
3. Gender prejudice and bias are prevalent in our social set up and it invariably reflects in any corporate or any other professional organisation too. Therefore, gender discrimination and gender-specific harassment are prevalent in a professional environment too. Therefore, require enlightened addressing of such issues for work-life balance of the corporate/organisation too.
4. When we scrutinize the work culture of most of the organisation, we may find that authoritative leadership is prevalent and widely practised. Such form of leadership does not encourage a democratic work environment allowing people to speak their heart and mind and take responsibility for their thoughts, words and actions. Such a work environment is based on assigning a task and not delegating responsibility. Such work culture and environment, therefore, is favourable to spawn discrimination, even gender inequality, eccentricity, blame game, hypocrisy in terms of thoughts and action
5. This post does not require any data to justify its credibility as it is easily available in the rest of the posts on LinkedIn and other social networking sites as well as on the electronic and print media.

“Hi, Harish! Namaskaar Mausi! It’s really a pleasant surprise to see you help Harish in the shop.” Manoj announced his ritual morning visit to his friend Harish, his childhood friend. Manoj was a young horticulturist working in the district horticulture office. Every morning, on his way to his workplace, he would visit Harish’s hardware store, situated near the bus stop. Harish, would wait for Manoj to have the morning cup of tea together. Rohini, Harish’s mother was a housewife in her late fifties. She would wake up at cock’s crow in the morning and would complete all the household work before she would serve the breakfast to Harish and a flask full of morning tea for him and Manoj. Harish was the eldest of Rohini’s three sons. Due to genetic complications, two of her younger sons were physically challenged and she would take care of them without complaining to her almighty Lord Shiva for her fate. She was only sixteen years of age when she married Virupaksha Garavalli and enter...

In our personal as well as professional life we may often experience the following stressful situation along with adrenalin rush: 1.        You are a student who has to attend a workshop or seminar in your school/college. While getting ready for the event you are unable to find your clothes and/or relevant documents or accessories in your room and you ask your mother or father for help, which leads to an exasperated comment and feedback from them for keeping your room clean and your things in place so that you can get them easily without wasting any time. 2.        You are a professional who is to take a morning flight to attend a business meeting. You get up in the morning and try to arrange your documents and clothes to get ready for the travel, but you spend a lot of your time and effort in finding them and eventually have to rush to the airport with a fear of missing the flight. 3.    ...
