Dear Satish,
Thank you for sharing the article. I believe the trigger for change begins at a grassroots level, which involves the day-to-day challenges faced in the job. This could include working in a disjointed team, lacking confidence in leadership, creating little to no value in the job, and feeling a lack of achievement in the role. These factors, among many others, contribute to the urge to seek new opportunities, as the talent is not willing to stay for long. Additionally, external market factors often pull individuals away. Patience and the conviction to make progress are essential, but not always common. Hence, the circulation of resumes continues to increase, along with the popularity of job portals.

Is this genuine? If yes, not very convincing! If there are better opportunities outside and if your worth is more than what you are getting in the present organization (in terms of position and salary), then why not quit? Is it advice or a veiled threat warning employees against quitting?

I agree with some and disagree with a few. It's right that when looking for a job change, you should always consider factors like the people you will be working with and other questions mentioned in the article.
One point with which I don't agree is "Happiness @ Work." I feel that more than half of our lives are spent in our organization. Most of our interactions are with bosses, superiors, colleagues, etc. With so many hours dedicated to one entity, which is the "ORGANIZATION," I believe we have the right to seek happiness during those hours.
There are organizations where work is fun. While deadlines exist, bosses may shout and complain, and unhappiness may occur, at the end of the day, satisfaction does matter. It comes from a good job done, recognition, and a positive work culture. People who derive satisfaction from their current job might reject lucrative job offers.
This is what I feel. :)

Hi Satish,
What would have been the value of the article if Mr. Gopala Krishna's introduction is not added to...
Of course towards the end, there are beautiful questions that may not have handsome answers. It looks like ALL IN THE GAME cartoon in The Hindu Daily.
Many people say:
Sir Isaac Newton is from this small school without proper amenities, etc...
Abdul Kalam is from this school with thatched leaves, etc...
My question would be:
How many Sir. Isaac Newtons', Abdul Kalams' these same schools could produce... and obviously only one.
My view: If one is accountable for his own activities, either good or bad, and if the current situation/job, etc., is bad, he could as well learn from his own experiences and from those of others. How it turned out to be bad for some and good for others or bad only for him and good for others, and other combinations.
Hence, loyalty, unhappiness at work... all these are blunders, I believe. In fact, at the time of appointment, we did not sign to be loyal, and hence the company never demands it. Regarding job satisfaction, we just signed off the document (probably 10-12 pages) as we sign off a prepaid sim card connection, without inquiring all the details. Later, we suffer from unnecessary calls, SMS, and the like, and blame the company.
Please note that I am not at least one among the management.
With regards,
