Netscribes has opened its second center in Kolkata. As we strengthen our unique positioning in the void created between KPO and consulting firms, Kolkata will offer a largely untapped talent pool as well as immense growth opportunities for our business.
As Sourav said in a recent interview, “Our growth mantra is clearly profitability by providing high-end consultative solutions to clients. With the Kolkata centre in place, we are looking at growing aggressively with a talent pool that can scale up skills wise and not only in numbers.”
I am looking forward to my visit to Kolkata in August. It will be exciting to meet the new members of the Netscribes family and feel the same energy that we have become so used to in Mumbai. I am sure each of the new members of Netscribes family will be getting ready to set on a new career path, embrace the challenges, and chalk out a growth story.
And this is just the beginning …
I went on a weekend drive to Pune, a pre-planned activity to beat the regular weekend blues. Instead of lazing around and sitting idle, the drive was a refreshing change from the usual banalities; of course it left all of us tired at the end of the trip. The experience of driving Maruti Swift is simply awesome. The car is smooth as silk even at high speeds. Since I am yet to get the first service done, the maximum that I hit was 90 km/h, with 60 km/h as average speed most of the time. It was raining heavily on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway, but the wide roads coupled with excellent tar condition made the monsoon drive extremely pleasant. There was lush greenery all around with waterfalls at a lot of places. The pictures of the trip are posted in my photoalbum.
And a weekend without the trip to Crossword is incomplete. So the current sojourn resulted in me buying Woody Allen’s ‘The Insanity Defense’. It seems to be a good book smeared with sarcasm and humor. I am still half-way through Straight from the Gut. But this book is now a great motivator to complete Jack Welch’s autobiography and hop on to this one.
Woody’s following quote was the decision maker for me:
“Thought: Why does man kill? He kills for food. And not only food: Frequently there must be a beverage.”
Picked up Straight from the Gut by Jack Welch from Crossword last weekend. I have just read about twenty pages and I am enjoying the book. The autobiography is filled with insightful anecdotes and some hilarious moments as well. I will be posting a review as soon as I devour the book completely ;-).
