Emotions!

As the current financial year draws to an end and companies start taking stock of how things fared in the year and strive to meet the shortfalls, a wide range of emotions are seen within the organization. Blue Caramel is no exception.

Success is contagious but alas so is failure. One shining example of success breeds new energy into the entire team, but a failure too could have a similar negative effect, especially if one keeps brooding over it. There have been many instances when the exploits of one branch has galvanized the other branches of Blue Caramel during this financial year. Jaipur galvanized Jodhpur, which in turn galvanized Udaipur, fostering a great atmosphere of "Co-opetition" (ie cooperation with competition) within Blue Caramel.

On the other hand, there have been individual as well as collective failures in Blue Caramel during FY11-12, when things have looked bad and almost out of control. But the resilience of the Blue Caramelers has seen to it that things have come back again from the brink. A famous song by Billy Ocean with lyrics "When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Going" aptly showcases the spirit of Blue Caramel. But the real test for all Blue Caramelers is to back each other, come what may, withstanding all pressures and emotions and steering the company towards collective glory!

As the financial year draws to an end, let all Blue Caramelers draw onto all their resources and energies and deliver on the promises that they themselves have made to the organization, because it is only the meek who surrenders, a true warrior fights till the very end to see another day!!
