There were about 70 scientists working on a very hectic project. All of them were really frustrated due to the pressure of work and the
demands of their boss but everyone was loyal to him and did not think of quitting
the job.

One day, one scientist came to his boss and told him - Sir, I
have promised to my children that I will take them to the exhibition going on
in our township. So I want to leave the office at 5:30 pm.

His boss replied 'OK, You're permitted to leave the office early
today'

The Scientist started working. He continued his work after
lunch. As usual he got involved to such an extent that he looked at his watch
when he felt he was close to completion. The time was 8.30 PM. suddenly he remembered of the promise he had given to his children.
He looked for his boss,, He was not there. Having told him in the
morning itself, he closed everything and left for home.

Deep within himself, he was feeling guilty for having
disappointed his children.
He reached home. Children were not there. His wife alone
was sitting in the hall and reading magazines.

The situation was explosive; any talk would boomerang on him.
His wife asked him 'Would you like to have coffee or shall I straight away
serve dinner if you are hungry.

The man replied 'If you would like to have coffee, i too will
have but what about Children ??'

Wife replied 'You don't know?? Your manager came here at 5.15
PM and has taken the children to the exhibition '

What had really happened was ... The boss who granted him
permission was observing him working seriously at 5.00 PM. He thought to
himself, this person will not leave the work, but if he has promised his
children they should enjoy the visit to exhibition.

So he took the lead in taking them to exhibition

The boss does not have to do it every time. But once it is done,
loyalty is established.

That is why all the scientists at Thumba continued to work under
their boss even though the stress was tremendous.

By the way, can you guess as to who the boss was..?

Yes, If you take care of your employee, he devotes his full time to finish the
job successfully.

There are many companies who take care of their domestic needs including
children's school admission etc so that the managers put in their best for
the organisation. Since I want to avoid quoting the names of such companies, I
am not touching upon it.

[FONT=&quot]Very true dear Ranganathan Sir, if we give the emotional security to our employees that we are there for them...they will treat us one among them. Boss is no longer a boss, he is one among his friend of his subordinates... a true leader and mentor for his staff... If he can give this assurance... success will be for his team always... Right sir???? Respects Anandi[/FONT]
