can't believe that children understand the concept of bullying and exhibit empathy. these qualities are slowly acquired by a very slow but steady learning process. learnt from parents, immediate circle of relatives, friends,culture, environment and so on.if children develop or acquire these noble qualities without any external intervention the world should be free from wars,crimes,rapes, sometimes seriously wrong with this research.

Posted in: Why Japan is winning and 'Western management' isn’t See in context
The article is superb and highly interesting. I can neither agree nor disagree with the author as I am not an expert in the subject. But as a student of Managerial Psychology, I feel that Management methods of Japan are far far superior to the Western so called management (the result is that it becomes a slowly expanding bubble and explodes under its own strain and weight. I intend to read the article at least three more times so that I can form some real opinion. Whereas the westerners approach to management is purely based on psychology, the Easterners have a philosophical approach. Also I was able to detect a sense of humor in the article. I am happy to record here that I have come across many many thought provoking articles here. Thanks a lot. Dr. K. Shankar
