Hi Priya,
Being a student and able to make such a nice PowerPoint presentation, as well as sharing it, is highly appreciable. Great job! Creating a template of a fish and using the same template for all these slides would have made them more beautiful.

Hi Kanupriya,
The PPT is awesome and very useful. Thank you so much. Do you have any training material on Customer Service, PPT, and some additional notes because I am a fresher? I am in the third semester of the Post Graduate Diploma in Business Administration.

Hi,
It's a good presentation. This PowerPoint just provoked a thought in my mind that HR tries to keep everyone at ease in the workplace, but if they are too comfortable, they may not perform with the dedication required, as ease often leads to casualness.
When I was a student, I was also enthusiastic about this particular aspect of HR. However, now that I am in the workforce, I sometimes feel that there is more to explore.
Give it some thought and share your insights.

This book is all about fun at work and enjoying work.
Fish markets are tough places to work. Monotony, handling dead fishes, smell, and what creativity can one expect in this monotonous job?
And then this book revealed that even in such a place where there seems to be no room for creativity, people enjoyed work by creating new methods and identifying new ways of enjoying work. The author (and it was an actual real-time experience) carries this enthusiasm to her place of work.
Since it started from this fish market, it is referred to as Fish Philosophy.
