Groom one’s personality.

Sense of responsibility develop instead
of blaming
(One Indian = 10 Japanese, 10 Indians = One

Japanese)
• When the Japanese came to work in India to develop
the Maruti Suzuki car, a joke went around that one
Indian was equal to 10 Japanese: Indians were very
smart, capable and dedicated individuals. But 10
Indians were equal to 1 Japanese: Indians lacked team
spirit and co-operation.
• What makes matters even worse is our "crab"
mentality - if someone is trying to climb higher and
achieve more, the others just drag him down. The
signal that the others send out is, "I wouldn't do it; I
wouldn't let you do it; and if by chance you start
succeeding, we will all gang up and make sure that you
don't get to do it."
Sam Pitroda: "In my younger days in the US, I
attended an executive seminar for Rockwell
International, where about 25 senior company
executives had congregated for a week for strategic
discussion. In the evenings, we would break out into
five different groups of five people each. In those
group workshops, someone would delegate tasks,
saying: "You make coffee; you take notes; you are the
chairman; and you clean the board". The next day,
there would be different duties for each group
member. No one ever said, "But I made coffee twice
or I cleaned the board entire day". I thought to
myself, if this were happening in India, people would
be saying, “ But I'm the senior secretary - why should
I make the coffee and you be the chairman?"
Hierarchy comes naturally to our minds.
