Management and Strategy

Author: Malcolm Gladwell

Tipping Point is my first book in couple of years. It is a great read and I will highly recommend it to everyone. Malcolm Gladwell talks about events and people that help make a major transformation. Tipping point is when a technology or product goes from being only for innovators to mass market. How does this happen? That is what Malcolm tries to find and his finding are really interesting.

He talks about Law of the few (Connectors, Mavens and Salesmen) and The Stickiness Factor and Power of Context.

Business Week has started a great new section on their website on Management. The section covers managing career, team, company and board. It is a great site with some good case studies and videos. I have subscribed to its blog too. Hopefully the site will have tons of good information going forward. J

Yesterday I graduated from UNC with my MBA. You can read more details at http://sudsblog.com/?p=331.

Few weeks back I interviewed for a position as Product Manager for BizTalk RFID team. This Wednesday I accepted the offer and I will be starting my new job on 1^st of October. J I am really excited about this opportunity. I could not have asked for better opportunity after my MBA. It is a marketing role focusing on worldwide launch of BizTalk RFID Server. Marketing is going to be a new area for me but I think I am ready for the challenge and it would be lot of fun. J I love traveling and I will get to do a lot of it. J

Now I prepare for my graduation on Saturday 8^th September. J
