There_are_three_kinds_of_people

a)      People WHO_GETS_BUSINESS: These are smart folks. These people will always be in demand and if we happen to work under these folks, more often than not, one would learn the essentials to go up the ladder. As these folks are already smart, all of them (or most of them) would not feel insecure about their position and works at the notion of meeting the lion in its den.
b)      People WHO_IMPLEMENTS: These are also skillful folks on par with people who get BUSINESS. Skillful implementers innovate and ensure they stay relevant and sellable at any time. These folks also would not feel insecure and if we happen to work under them, it is rest assured that we are most likely to get inspired from them.
c)      PEOPLE_WHO_GETS_THE_JOB_DONE: These are the dangerous folks. They get the job done. By whom. By others. If they get credit it is purely POLITICS. They don’t know how to get it (business) or how to implement it (business). If an organization keeps their count to the bare minimum, then there will be no politics. Well the productivity increases when these people are removed from the organization. One way to remove them is to encourage more automation in the way of standardization. Or we could encourage folks to be evangelist who speaks to two folks (who_gets_business and who_implements) in their terms. Evangelists are even talented folks who are a bit of both (who_gets and who_implements)

Yes it could be true for IT industry. That is why we see companies under performing when it comes to revenue per employee.

You would be a rare person to find such a Boss.

Most bosses in desi cos are like:
1. At first sign of fire, blame the subordinate.

2. If your tail wagging skills are not good, your boss will find imaginary faults with you.

3. Boss himself is wagging tail vigorously when he sees powerful person walk around

4. Has no spine to take decisions or talk with confidence

5. Will gossip about your personal life with other subordinates.

6. If you do not give him gossip material, will blame you for random things.

7. Will become uncomfortable if find you talking to other managers.

This is the sad situation.

Inspite of all this, don't lose your dignity.
Any slave find a master - don't be any of that.
Be a man.

iota seems intelligent and articulate, he is already a boss

Om Shanti is immature and rude. He seems to be a boss / employee of a company where these skills are not imparted
