Australia Ahoy !!

Its been a long time since my last posting and boy what a time this has been !!!! A real roller-coaster ride at 500 mph which has changed my views on so many things and most of them for the better. I have seen people buckling under pressure and some folks actually thriving under it!!!I have realized that no matter how good you are there can never be a one-man show in today's world .Also, you have to decide on what you want and then go after it without any reservations - half-hearted measures will not work. I have also developed a new passion - running. We had the XL dream run and it was a grand success. I am hooked on to running for life :)

A much needed respite has now come - we are now in Australia for our international immersion program. The weather here is glorious and perfect for 'Touristry Stuff' (as one my friends referred to being a tourist and looking around !!). I am clicking photos, watching movies, catching up on books and last but not the least visiting the famed Australian beaches!!!!It is fun to follow your interests after a long hiatus. As a part of academic load I am having classes and working with a Web CMS company in Australia - Seamless. These guys are a stand-alone company and have a big marketshare of the CMS market in Australia. They have clients such as Telstra and the Government which makes them a force to reckon with. Our XLRI team has been asked to do a study for them and come out with a road-map/strategy plan . Its very interesting work as the market where Seamless wants to compete is replete with established players. Its like a consulting assignment and I am also getting to know first-hand how a small company can play with established players !!!!

I'll keep updating this space with my Australian (mis)-adventures. Keep Visiting !!!
