Re: [MTC Global] Multitasking

There is an ancient wisdom " Ati Sarvtra Varjayet", any excess in
all areas to be abandoned! Namely lead a balanced life with attitude
of balance.

>Dear ColleaguesFollowing is a mail from Abdul Wajid Mohd, who was
my student of MBA - Technology Management at Dept of Business
management, Osmania University Campus, now with Microsoft at
Cincinatti, USA. Wajid brings in a rare spontaneity & holistic
approach to issues, which added value to subjects I taught -
Technology management, Technology transfer, Innovation Mgt, R & D
Mgt, others. MTC G members shall stand to gain from such fresh
perspectives.regards, Ramesh Vemuganti  

Respected Alumni,
Here are my humble thoughts -1. The median path is the right
approach:Trying to multi-task too much will result in low quality.
And if someone cannot multi-task, then s/he might not be the right
candidate to lead/manage, OR s/he might not grow in a competitive
world.
2. Can';t fit all in the same frame:While multi-tasking is good for
some, it';s counter-productive for others. I think uni-tasking
should be desired/enabled for specialists at work.Some jobs that
suit more to uni-tasking: high-ranking Scientists, specialist
doctors, programming geeks etc.Some multi-tasking jobs: CEO, Civil
servant, Housewife (you know how much time women save in the kitchen
with parallel processing! :)
3. Delegate | Outsource | Make or buy decision:A person should think
of growing up the value chain. Example - A surgeon should focus on
how to do more complex surgeries instead of trying to multi-task
with a computer on the billing desk. "Billing clerk" is not his
forte, and he adds no value doing that. Instead, delegate/outsource
that job.
4. One who can';t multi-task won';t grow:While I might be
inefficient when I add a new activity to my calendar, over time, I
will gain experience & expertise of it. If I don';t have plans to
multi-task out of fear of low-quality, I will never grow into
learning new things & new challenges.
Summary: Too much is too bad. Balance is important. Humans can
multi-task, but within limits, that vary depending on several
parameters like smartness of individual, work-life-balance, past
experiences, work habits, area of work etc. PS: Thanks Ramesh sir,
for your interesting question. Your critical thinking approach is a
blessing for us!

The SME/SSI/MSME are mostly run by an entrepreneur or proprietor or
owner. Being a small organizations

industry functions like sales and marketing, production, accounting,
HR, etc.,are handled by the owner. It

means that the owner assumes different roles from time to time,
multi-role playing. And as per the role at a

point of time the owner is subjected to multi-tasking like as a
production manager s/he looks after

scheduling, machine allocation, inventory, workforce allocation,
quality, cost and scrap control, etc.



We come across such many successful entrepreneurs in all cities like
Coimbatore, Rajkot, Nashik, Aurangabad,

Bangalore,Ludhiana, Jamshedpur, etc.



Such owners play multi-role and multitasking.

Dear Prof. Goel ji,

That is it, one must adopt small scale businessman';s multitasking
model; here are three success stories to

prove the importance - Tesla Donald Wu in Taiwan and Toyota-EV
frustration.







Sergio Marchionne boss of Fiat Chrysler famously said six million
units a year is needed for a car maker to

be profitable, his head of research Pietro Perlo left to
successfully make small pure electric vehicles in a

start-up. The car company that has shocked

the industry by proving it wrong about the viability of pure
electric cars is Tesla in the USA - a start up

with better technology.Donald Wu in Taiwan is global leader in
little single-seat mobility vehicles for the

disabled having sold nearly one million of them. He said he would be
better able to make electric cars than

the big car companies and he is proving it by making and selling

several home grown models. Also in Taiwan sit the 100 pure electric
cars that giant Toyota made before

giving up in frustration at their poor cost-performance. Executives
from small Taiwanese manufacturers are

now driving these cars and they figure they can solve the problems.







Thanks and regards,







Prof. G.S.Autee

If a small manufacturer running a one man show (sometimes few
skilled or unskilled helpers) looking after

all affairs of

his industry, is he or is he not doing multitasking?

Dear All



Scientifically it has been found that at a time the creative mind





can concentrate on only one thing.If it diverts focus is missed





and time is wasted.





However, as rightly pointed out by some members if the tasks are





related ones probably the person concerned may not find it difficult
like a mother in kitchen.

Dear Sirs,

Greetings!



Busiest person is one who has time for every thing, they
say.Students find it very difficult to even take

notes whilethey are thoroughlyengrossed understanding the concept
being explained by a goodteacher;

in fact

there is a great business potential for appropriate hardware
/software to take down notes, I feel.Structured

tasks may be good candidates for multitasking and for enhancing
efficiency.
