I have been constantly promoting #standing#workstations for past 4 years. I can be found operating out of self-assigned standing workspace at office sometimes. For me its four and a half feet cabinet next to my workstation which is very helpful indeed to stand and work. I truly believe that workspace needs to become more ergonomic with low cost and effective solutions to create the win-win proposition for both Employees and Employers.
As #TimCook, #Apple#CEO endorsing standing workstation in the attached article I hope it will trigger more people to think on these lines and make more health friendly workstations. Not only workstations but meetings rooms can also become standing meeting rooms for short and effective meetings. Tim says "#SittingIsNewCancer". Few others have already said that "#SittingIsNewSmoking". Let's see how long it takes for Indian and other Global organizations to start implementing this new concept in the workspace.
Please feel free to share your opinion and your organization practice on this.

Last month had great time with seniors and super seniors from our engineering college at Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology#Mumbai Chapter Alumni #Meet. People turned up from #1966 to #2018 batch. Great show by Mr. Sunil More and his team for managing the entire event.
@ Srajan Vyas it was nice meeting you and other recent batch passouts.
I would sincerely urge MANIT community to keep growing our Alumni network and utilize these forums more effectively for greater good.

#BoehringerIngelheimIndia#FitnessMovement#SuccessStory. Very proud to share that this movement has received attention globally, both within & outside organization.
It is heartwarming indeed to witness such high commitment from our organization towards health & fitness. Many employees have participated throughout the month. This movement provided them an opportunity to think about their wellness. We will launch new initiatives as part of Fitness movement as we proceed. We aspire to keep this energy alive and growing. Being a pharmaceutical "Improving Lives" is deeply rooted in us and we are constantly demonstrating it through such initiatives for our employees. This definitely makes Boehringer Ingelheim "Employer of Choice" for me.

Dedicated to all those courageous people who chose #Medicine against all odds. It takes a lot of guts to chose this subject when one stands at a juncture after Matriculation. Choosing medicine is the beginning of an endless journey of studying and keeping oneself updated with latest indications and evolving therapies. It takes on an avg between 8-10yrs to settle down as a Doctor. Due to 1st UG(#MBBS) followed by PG(#MD, #DNB) in most of the cases.
I have few friends who studied Medicine and I was shocked to witness the hardships they go through during their PG course. They need to be on continuous duty for up to 36/48 hrs. When I first got to know I couldn't believe this. As HR I found it inhumane. I asked them what is your Policy or timing guidelines? to my utter surprise, there is no such policy due to many reasons. Shortage of #Doctors across the country being one of them. They slog day in day out to become practitioners.
It's a tough profession for sure. People driven by the passion for Medicine go for it. I wish all such marvelous people Happy Doctor's Day.

I witnessed this live. It was interesting and inspiring to listen to Prabir Jha on subject Employer Brand and how it is different from Organization Brand.
