Professor M.S. Rao’s Messages to Learners and Leaders―Share if You Care!
“In everyone's life, at some
time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with
another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle
the inner spirit.” ―Albert Schweitzer
I would love to share the
following messages in this new year and decade.
Enhance Your Employability
“Your hard skills help you
acquire employment and your soft skills help you ensure your
employability. Hence, integrate hard and
soft skills to fast-track your career.” —Professor M.S. Rao
I would like to share a few
things with you today. There is no permanent employment in this world. There is
only permanent employability. The days
of permanent employment is gone. At the time of passing out from educational
institutions, most students think that they don’t have to learn further. The
real learning starts in the corporate world. What educational institutions gave
you is paper qualifications. What you must do is to acquire the ropes of
learning with a practical approach. You must acquire your knowledge, skills, and
abilities regularly to enhance your employability. When you enhance your
employability, you will be in great demand and will be able to shortlist your
employers.
Blend Hard and Soft Skills
“Mostly overlooked, soft
skills play a large part in actually keeping one’s job. While people are hired
for their hard skills like knowledge, oftentimes people get fired for their
lack of soft skills, including their emotional intelligence.” —Professor M. S.
Rao
Most people mistake soft
skills for people skills. Soft skills are all about your personality, attitude, and behavior. They are different from hard skills. Hard skills are your domain
skills which are also known as technical competence. Soft skills involve
communicating with others pleasingly and politely. They help deliver hard
skills effectively. People are hired for hard skills but fired due to a lack of
soft skills. Hence, understand the importance of soft and hard skills. A
judicious blend of soft and hard skills is essential to achieve your
professional success.
Learn, Unlearn, and Relearn
“The illiterate of the 21st
century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn,
unlearn, and relearn.” ―Alvin Toffler
Companies including Kodak,
Nokia and Blockbuster have vanished from the market because they failed to
reinvent as per the changing times and technologies. Currently, companies
including Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Apple are ruling globally. If these
companies don’t unlearn and relearn, they will vanish from the market. It is
predicted that most of the companies that are ruling the market presently may
not exist after 10 years in this age of disruption. What is essential is to
learn, unlearn and relearn. Remember, life is all about learning, unlearning
and relearning.
Conclusion
“The most important thing for
a young man [woman] is to establish a credit—a reputation, character.” —John D.
Rockefeller
Throughout my life, I
believed in two things―continuous learning and constant feedback. I rose from a humble background. I joined the Indian Air Force when I was 19 years, and I was
not even a graduate. I have an urge to learn and grow and acquired several
qualifications including DME, BSc, MA, MBA, PGDCLL, PGDBM while serving in the
Indian Air Force. I was learning and earning. After leaving the service, I
started my Ph.D. and acquired in 2011 in the area of soft skills. It is an
example for others that nothing can stop them from achieving their goals. They
must work hard, wise and smart to accomplish their goals.
Currently, there are innumerable
opportunities for millennials. What they must have is an idea and fire in their
belly. If they possess them, they can conquer the world. At the end, I implore to
achieve success with integrity.
“I believe in achieving
success with integrity which is often ridiculed by many people. Ultimately it
is the ethics and etiquette that will make you a great leader in the long run.”
—Professor M.S. Rao
