Compassion vs. Cost: How Franchising could improve India's Healthcare
"How can health care and innovation in India be translated into measurable outcomes?" Pervez Ahmed, CEO and managing director of Max Healthcare, a leading hospital chain based in New Delhi, asked a lecture hall filled with medical executives one recent afternoon in Hyderabad. India's US$40 billion-a-year health care industry has grown rapidly and is now the second-largest service-sector employer in the country (after education), providing jobs for about 4.5 million people directly or indirectly. Highly qualified doctors and scientists, state-of-the-art technology and low costs have helped India become an attractive global hub for medical tourism, clinical studies, and research and development programs.

Franchisors being Revolutionized by the Internet
There’s no doubt about it, the franchise market has been revolutionised by the Internet. Not only has it changed the way businesses promote themselves, attract new customers and keep existing ones, it has also increased expectations. Franchisees now expect business processes to be online and clients are seeking out IT companies that can offer them more than just a basic website.

Competing motivations creating confusion
How to incentivise and reward sales people has long been a contentious topic. Too many times I have seen businesses set up incentive programs that reward the wrong behaviours which can affect team morale, client relationships, sales, staff retention, and so on. For instance, I recently met the managing director of a medium sized software business who asked me why would his sales people keep selling one version of their product when they had been instructed to also sell in a newer more comprehensive version of the product.
Do I have to blog, tweet or link-in? Social networking unmasked.
If you're anything like me, you've been bombarded with requests to get on Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter. Being the Boomer I am, I really don't want to tweet, peep, or anything else that sounds like making friends online...just too creepy for me. None the less, reality is that social networking is here to stay. To understand why, and how critical it is to the future of your business, please read my article that describes why social media is here to stay, and why it's time to jump in.

360 Degree Appraisals
An overview on the 360 Degree Appraisals
Are you creating competing motivations in your sales force?
I recently met the managing director of a medium-sized software business, who asked me why would his sales people keep selling one version of their product when they had been instructed to also sell in a newer, more comprehensive version of the product. It turned out that his sales people earned more commission by selling in the older version than the newer version of his product. And the sales people made the bulk of their income from their commissions rather than from their salaries. There you have it. What makes perfect sense to the sales person does not always work for the organisation or the customer.
