Hello Munshi,
You do have a point.
However, why not look @ it in another angle?
The management failed to convince this employee & this resulted in resignation. However, this guy was sooo good @ work, that the management DIDN'T STOP in their efforts to convince this guy & finally succeeded--which resulted in this thread being posted by Ankitaadhikary.
Coming to the employee, he didn't think "won't the company think very low of me IF I agree to rejoin AFTER resigning?" Or even if he did, he still went by his past experiences in the company [which would have been very good, else rethinking about resignation wouldn't arise] & the convincing mode of handling by the management.
In a line, both sides deviated from any ego/ feelings & decided based on the facts of the case/situation.
Any comments w.r.t. this line of thinking?
Rgds,
TS
