Hi Friends, If you are young, mid age, old and have spent lots of time sitting late in office or you know someone like this then the time has come to read this mail letter Narayan Murthy to all his employees. This letter will be an eye opener. I have always believed that late sitting has nothing to do with productivity and efficiency. You are productive, efficient only when you complete your work on time. I have also kept some foreword on Work Life Balance and Certain points that we really need to think about. Hope you will like the presentation. Please do share with everyone as we really need change the late sitting and working mentality.

- 2. LETTER FROM NARAYAN MURTHY TO ALL ITS EMPLOYEES
- 3. ABOUT NARAYAN MURTHY • Nagavara Ramarao Narayana Murthy commonly referred to as Narayana Murthy, is an Indian IT industrialist and the co-founder of Infosys, a multinational corporation providing business consulting, technology, engineering, and outsourcing services.
- 4. READ THE MAIL SENT BY NARAYANA MURTHY' TO ALL INFOSYS STAFF:
- 5. 1. If you are working more than 9 hr then dont need to join Infosys. 2. If you are working on saturday and sunday dont join infosys (for IT). 3. Whatever time define in your task complete within time. 4. Fire all people who fall in criteria 1,2,3.
- 6. • It’s half past 8 in the office but the lights are still on… PCs still running, coffee machines still buzzing… And who’s at work? Most of them ??? Take a closer look… • All or most specimens are ?? Something male species of the human race… • Look closer… again all or most of them are bachelors…
- 7. • And why are they sitting late? Working hard? No way!!! Any guesses??? Let’s ask one of them… Here’s what he says… • ‘What’s there 2 do after going home… • Here we get to surf, AC, phone, food, coffee that is why I am working late… • Importantly no bossssssss!!!!!!!!!!!’ • This is the scene in most research centers and software companies and other off-shore offices.
- 8. • Bachelors ‘Passing-Time’ during late hours in the office just bcoz they say they’ve nothing else to do… Now what r the consequences… • ‘Working’ (for the record only) late hours soon becomes part of the institute or company culture. • With bosses more than eager to provide support to those ‘working’ late in the form of taxi vouchers, food vouchers and of course good feedback, (oh, he’s a hard worker….. goes home only to change..!!). They aren’t helping things too… • To hell with bosses who don’t understand the difference between ‘sitting’ late and ‘working’ late!!!
- 9. • Very soon, the boss start expecting all employees to put in extra working hours. • So, My dear Bachelors let me tell you, life changes when u get married and start having a family… office is no longer a priority, family is… and That’s when the problem starts… b’coz u start having commitments at home too. • For your boss, the earlier ‘hardworking’ guy suddenly seems to become a ‘early leaver’ even if u leave an hour after regular time… after doing the same amount of work.
- 10. • People leaving on time after doing their tasks for the day are labelled as work-shirkers… • Girls who thankfully always (its changing nowadays… though) leave on time are labelled as ‘not up to it’. • All the while, the bachelors pat their own backs and carry on ‘working’ not realizing that they r spoiling the work culture at their own place and never realize that they would have to regret at one point of time.
- 11. MORAL • • • • So what’s the moral of the story?? * Very clear, LEAVE ON TIME!!! * Never put in extra time ‘ unless really needed ‘ * Don’t stay back unnecessarily and spoil your company work culture which will in turn cause inconvenience to you and your colleagues.
- 12. There are hundred other things to do in the evening.. Learn music….. Learn a foreign language… Try a sport… TT, cricket……….. Importantly,get a girl friend or boy friend, take him/her around town… • * And for heaven’s sake, net cafe rates have dropped to an all-time low (plus, no fire-walls) and try cooking for a change. • Take a tip from the Smirnoff ad: *’Life’s calling, where are you??’* • • • • •
- 13. • Please pass on this message to all those colleagues and please do it before leaving time, don’t stay back till midnight to forward this!!! • IT’S A TYPICAL INDIAN MENTALITY THAT WORKING FOR LONG HOURS MEANS VERY HARD WORKING & 100% COMMITMENT ETC. • PEOPLE WHO REGULARLY SIT LATE IN THE OFFICE DON’T KNOW TO MANAGE THEIR TIME. SIMPLE ! • Regards, • NARAYANA MURTHY.
- 14. I WANT YOU ALL TO THINK ON THE POINTS MENTIONED ON THE NEXT SLIDES…
- 15. JUST THINK ABOUT IT WORK CAN NEVER BE COMPLETED BUT IN THE PROCESS YOUR LIFE WILL BE COMPLETED.
- 16. JUST THINK ABOUT IT BALANCE YOUR LIFE BETWEEN PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL. NONE OF THEM CAN COMPENSATE FOR EACH OTHER.
- 17. JUST THINK ABOUT IT YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS, RELATIVES WILL REMEMBER YOU MORE THAN YOUR CLIENT. THEY OFFER A HELPING HAND NOT THE CLIENT.
- 18. JUST THINK ABOUT IT FIND TIME FOR YOURSELF AS LIFE DOESN’T ROTATE AROUND OFFICE, WORK AND SLEEPING. WHAT ABOUT EXERCISE, MEDITATION, MUSIC?
- 19. JUST THINK ABOUT IT DID YOU STUDY SO MUCH TO HAVE SUCH A WORKAHOLIC LIFE? THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED OR YOU HAVE DREAMT OF?
- 20. JUST THINK ABOUT IT LEAVING OFFICE ON TIME • Awesome Life – Professional – Personal • • • • Time for Exercise - Healthy Productive Effective AND ABOVE ALL HAPPY • AND THIS WHAT YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO BE WORKING LATE IN OFFICE • Boring Life – Professional – Personal • No time for Exercise • No Connect with People – Only Machines is what you know SAD • AND THIS WHAT YOU NEVER WANTED TO BE
