top talents and by making the right hiring decision.
NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
Introduction:
New product development (NPD) is the complete process of
bringing a new product to the market till its consumption &
feedback from the end user of the business chain can be used
for further development of the same product or used for the
advancements in next product .
Product development may also involve modification of an
existing product or its presentation, that satisfies a newly
defined customer wants or market niche.
A product developed may replaces an existing product or can be
an competition which significantly broaden the market and
increase people choices.
STEPS OF PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT:
1. Generating IDEA
2. Screening The Idea.
3. Testing The Concept.
4. Business Analytics.
5. Market Tests.
6. Product Development.
7. Commercialization
8. Post Launch Review and
Perfect Pricing.
Why develop New Product ?
To create stars and cash cows for the future
 To replace declining product
To take advantage of new technology
To defeat rivals
To maintain/increase market share
To keep up with rivals
To maintain competitive advantage
To fill gap in the market
WHY DEVELOP EXISTING PRODUCT INTO NEW
PRODUCT:
It helps retain customers and helps in meeting the
markets needs and expectation of the existing customers.
Developing a existing product needs innovative ideas and
helps a creative surrounding.

CONCLUSION:
No new product was invented in the late centuries until
there was a compulsory need for it yet again it has been
developed by reference to the old existing or ancient
designs and ideas which was stuck within a sheet of
paper
PROCESS OF MAKING WINE
There are over 10,000 varieties of wine grapes in the
world. Many of these varieties have been developed
by using grafting and other methods to produce
new hybrids. Often, certain types
of grapes are popular in
certain countries.
The top 3 major wine regions
of the world are France, Italy
and Spain. They produce almost half of all the wine
produced in the world. To help you wrap your brain
around the sheer volume of wine they produce.
PROCESS OF WINE MAKING
Harvesting.
 Harvesting or picking is the first step in the actual wine making process. The harvesters are
harvesting the grapes at the precise time.

Crushing and Pressing.


 The grapes are being crushed and pressed by mechanical presses that become grape juice magical

Fermentation.
 The fermentation is a process where the sugar is converting to alcohol

Clarification.
 Once fermentation is complete, clarification begins. Clarification is the process in which solids
such as dead yeast cells, tannins, and proteins are removed. Wine is transferred or “racked” into a
different vessel such as an oak barrel or a stainless steel tank. Wine can then be clarified through
filtration.

Aging and bottling.


 Aging and bottling is the final stage of the wine making process. A wine maker has two options:
bottle the wine right away or give the wine additional aging. Further aging can be done in the
bottles, stainless steel tanks, or oak barrels.
BENEFITS OF DRINKING WINE
Reduces Heart-Attack Risk
 Moderate drinkers suffering from high blood pressure are 30% less likely to have
a heart attack than nondrinkers
Lowers Risk of Heart Disease
 Red-wine tannins contain procyanidins, which protect against heart disease.
Wines from Sardinia and southwest France have more procyanidins than other
wines.
Reduces Risk of Type 2 Diabetes
 Moderate drinkers have 30 percent less risk than nondrinkers of developing type
2 diabetes.
Lowers Risk of Stroke
 The possibility of suffering a blood clot–related stroke drops by about 50 percent
in people who consume moderate amounts of alcohol.
Cuts Risk of Cataracts
 Moderate drinkers are 32 percent less likely to get cataracts than nondrinkers;
those who consume wine are 43 percent less likely to develop cataracts than those
drinking mainly beer.

HANDLING CRITICISM WITH GRACE

What is criticism?
Criticism is an evaluative or corrective exercise that can occur in
any area of human life. Criticism can therefore take many
different forms . How exactly people
go about criticizing, can vary a great deal.
In specific areas of human
endeavour, the form of criticism can
be highly specialized and technical; it often
requires professional knowledge to understand the criticism.
Criticism is often presented as something unpleasant, but
sometimes, that may not be the case. There are also friendly
criticisms, amicably discussed, and some people find great
pleasure in criticism
HOW DO WE RESPOND TO CRITICISM
Common ways to respond is by feeling disappointed or holding
a grudge against them but it can also be taken friendly and a
way to improve ourselves.

Criticisms can be taken positively also such as :


 Listen up. Figure out whether the criticism is constructive or
simply rude.
 Respond calmly. Be respectful no matter what, and thank
someone if the feedback is useful.
 Don't take it personally.
 Manage stress.
 Keep on moving on.

 
HOW DO WE OVER COME SUCH CRITICISM IN ANY
SITUATIONS!
Firstly we need to accept that this world is of different culture
and different kind of people .
We need to accept the daily challenges and shouldn’t forget
our main goals.
People around us now a days criticize in both positive and
negative manner .
Positive criticism can he taken as a compliment for our work
whereas negative criticism can be taken as a motivation to
improve ourselves . Some unwanted comments can be
ignored by all means.
By doing so we keep ourselves happy and calm and we can
also find ways to improve ourselves without being rude to
others .
NEWS WIRE
1)Importance of performance Appraisal
A “Performance appraisal” is a process of
evaluating an employee’s performance of a
job in terms of its requirements.
Performance appraisal is the step where
the management finds out how effective it
has been at hiring and placing employees.
It is the approach to the management of
people using performance, planned goals
and objectives, measurement, feedback
and recognition to motivate people to
realize their maximum potential.
PURPOSE OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
 To review the performance of the employees.
To judge the gap between the actual and the desired
performance.
 To help the management in exercising
organizational control.
To diagnose the training and
development needs of the future.
The main importance of performance appraisal is that it
enables the employee to have a rare one-on-one session
with his superior; these sessions address issues that might
otherwise not be addressed.
 If conducted properly, it has almost universally been
reported to be a very beneficial experience.
Performance Appraisal information is used to find out
whether an employee requires additional training and
development.
Performance appraisal is a way of finding out which
employee should be given a promotion. Past appraisals,
together with other background data, will
enable management to select proper persons for
promotion.
 
2)CAN EVERYONE BE INNOVATIVE?
Innovation is the implementation of new ideas at
the individual, group or organizational level.
Innovation isn’t just about creativity and vision.
There are other qualities needed in order for
innovation to be truly effective. Not only do
innovators have to be able to separate the good
ideas from the impractical or ineffective, they
have to have the will to make those ideas come to
life and revolutionize society—a process that is
sometimes an uphill battle involving trial and
error.
Innovative minds exist at all levels of an
organization, but they don’t always have the
power to make their ideas an organizational
priority.
Many Minds, Many Ideas
When you ask most people whose responsibility
innovation is, the answer is typically “everyone”.
Many minds means many ideas, and people who are
contributing toward a larger goal within the company
are likely to be more engaged than those who simply
show up, do their work, and go home.
Can Everyone Innovate?
Though many people agree that anybody can innovate, that
still leaves the question of whether everyone can.
Innovation requires a lot of different components to
succeed. In addition to “skill combined with will”,
innovators need good ideas, discipline, the right timing,
enough resources, and the support of the organization
They have to have the time and headspace necessary for
creativity, and have a vision they’re working toward.
They also have to have enough patience to get through what
can ultimately be a long and difficult road.
So can everyone innovate? Probably not. Not everyone has
the desire or curiosity to explore novel ideas and solve
problems—they’d rather work with what’s in front of them.
3)OVER 10 PERCENT INDIANS LIE
IN THEIR RESUME
Out of the total people giving wrong information, almost
10 percent of them report faking about completing a
course, 5 percent report about fake universities, and the
majority of discrepancies, almost 50 percent are found in
documents submitted by the candidates

More than ten percent of the Indians lie about their


education, residence and criminal records in their resume
while applying for jobs, as per the data collected by global
screening agency,
Purushotam Savlani, SVP and Managing Director of
First Advantage said, "In India, background screening
is done only by IT industries, finance firms and banks.
Off late, we have also seen traction developing in
sectors like hospitality and manufacturing."
However, this number is quite low when compared to
foreign countries which can be due to the weak
checking mechanism.
Background screening is a concept in India, but isn't
followed much which results in people giving fake
information
4) HERE'S WHY SNAPCHAT IS SO
ADDICTIVE
Researchers found that the interest and
popularity of Snapchat goes beyond just its
simplicity
Snapchat may provide the perfect medium for
maintaining relationships with close friends
without the pressure to present one self in
extraordinary form, say scientists who delved
into why people use the addictive social
platform which allows short, quick posts.
However, researchers found that the interest
and popularity of Snapchat goes beyond just its
simplicity.
"People use Snapchat a lot because of its entertainment and
functional needs," said J J Delacruz, graduate student at Texas Tech
University in the US.
For certain people, it enables them to overcome communication
apprehension (anxiety or fear ) by using a different means of
communication where they don't have a threat in their face. At the
same time, there are people who are addicted to it," said Delacruz.
People using Snapchat felt much more trustworthy with how they
shared content with others.
Since the content disappears quickly, users are able to share their
lives and do not feel the pressure to present themselves in any
extraordinary form - they can just be their normal, real self.
Delacruz said Snapchat is not the preferred social media platform
for starting a new relationship.
However, it is an optimal platform for those with whom the user
already has a relationship, and therefore do not have to impress in
their post. It is used to maintain relationships and establish trust
between users.
At the same time, Snapchat seems to
change faster than other social
media platforms, adding things like
filters that Facebook and Instagram
later added as well.
"It takes away the pressure of
coming up with a great message or
great topic, or coming up with a way
to present yourself that is socially
acceptable," Delacruz said.
5)6 CS TO HELP YOU CRACK A JOB
INTERVIEW
According to a report published by IRIS Knowledge Foundation in
collaboration with UN-Habitat, every third person in India, a
country of 1.3 bn people, will be one of the youth, making it the
youngest country in the world by 2020.
As the workforce increases in volume, every individual will have to
compete with their peers in order to stand out from others in the
talent pool.
Therefore, in order to crack that dream job, the process of
approaching the right company, understanding their needs and
communicating effectively in the interview matters more than just
the knowledge that the candidate may have.
Most candidates get baffled and emotionally let down in their
struggle to stay afloat through the stormy waters of employment.
However, here are a few tips that will help potential candidates
upscale their quality of interactions with prospective employers
and support them to sail through successfully.
 Content: Resumes are a platform for candidates to showcase their
past responsibilities, educational and work credentials, and
achievements. With a short and succinct resume that is relevant to
the job that one is applying for, it is possible to crack any career
opportunity
 Clarity: Clarity is the result of preparation. Before attending an
interview, the candidate must take some time to make a list of
questions and respective answers covering past responsibilities,
how will he/she add value to the company and what are the future
goals that he/she is striving for?
 Confidence: Once the candidate have clarity, the other element
that the candidate need is confidence. Confidence can win 80% of
the battle as most employers look for candidates who can represent
them across all forms of business in the market.
 Communication: Communication comprises both verbal and non-verbal
interactions. While verbal communication consists of diction, language
fluency and choice of words. Nonverbal communication includes body
language, appearance, voice and energy levels among other such
intangible aspects.
 Conviction: The first step towards convincing someone else that you are
the right hire is to be convinced yourself.
 Contact: Once the interview is over, it is of utmost importance for a
candidate to be in touch with the company and follow up about the
interaction. Something as simple as an email thanking them for their time
and conveying that their response is awaited can go miles in establishing
one’s proactive and courteous character. While constant follow-ups are
not advisable, gentle reminders once every two weeks could go a long way.
Conclusion: There is hardly a formula that guarantees success in
cracking every interview, but these pointers are ideal for each
candidate to follow. In this fast-paced world where many potential
candidates are competing for the same position, these 6 Cs can help set
one stand-out as well as outstand from the rest of the talent pool.
6)7 WAYS THE BEST LEADERS MANAGE
THEIR TIME AND GET THINGS DONE
Advice from one of the greatest productivity experts, David Allen.
Follow a system: GTD( Getting things done) is a productivity system that
has been used by millions and can be used for every part of your life, not
just your career. Good habits allow you to focus on the things that matter
and most importantly, allow you to forget about the things that don't.
You need space, not time: If you ever find yourself thinking that there
needs to be more time in the day, then that's a good sign you're not as
productive as you think you can be. . If you're in a chaotic workplace, you
should try to figure out ways to get more space instead of more time. If
you can arrange a work from home day or block off 4 hours on your
calendar and have the luxury of an office
Stop blaming yourself as a victim: The victim has a mindset of can’t and
the leader has a mindset of can. The leader understands the essence of
genius is simplicity.
 Address the fear of being out of control: “Control is the master
addiction. Letting go of it is extremely important,". "The reason most
people postpone their work, is that people don't know where to start.
You don't need to know what you're going to paint exactly to start, but
you do need a basic coat to get started.
 Write ten things that are on your mind and write it down: Write it
down, then go through each one of them and figure out what is the
next action you need to take. Write down the decision and execute
those action steps.
 Keep it short and simple: Good managers just beat around the bush,
great managers keep it short and simple. Successful leaders know the
importance of time and value it. 
 You need four hours of uninterrupted time to do creative work: You
need fresh energy.
7) 5 HABITS THAT CHANGE MANAGERS
INTO GREAT LEADERS
Want to be a leader instead of a manager? Start with
these habits.
Difference between management and Leadership
Management: The manipulation of others for your
own success. It is the process of dealing with or
controlling things or people.

Leadership: The action of leading a group of people


or an organization, or the ability to do this. Serving
and empowering the lives that have been entrusted to you
Here are five habits that can help change managers
into leaders.
 Find a Purpose Beyond Money: While there is no
question that money is important in life, one of the best
ways to make a leap towards being a leader is to find a
true purpose in your work beyond money. If the only
reason you go to work is for money, your people will
know and you will never make the leap to serve.
 Stop Making Excuses: One should stop giving excuses if
he/she wants to be a great leader. Every quarter is
important and every day is important. One should think
“I don't care what the circumstance eliminate your
excuses, take responsibility and put in the work”
 Give and Serve Outside of Work: I don't mean to give
financially, I mean give your time. Winston Churchill
famously said "We make a living by what we get. We
make a life by what we give.“
 Focus on Your Example: Leading by example
encompasses all your actions, from what time you show
up at the office, how much vacation you take, wht you
wear , to the moral & ethical decision s you make both at
home and work.
8)25 TIME
Time MANAGEMENT
management HACKS
is a skill that everyone shouldTHAT
as soonACTUALLY WORK
as possible, it can be
strengthened at any time. And you can start by reviewing these 25 time
management hacks.
Create a To-Do-List: Do you have an overwhelming number of tasks? Then a to-do
list is an ideal way to organize your thoughts and tasks. Crossing off those
completed tasks one by one is immensely satisfying as well.
Schedule Your Day: Plan your entire day first thing in the morning. This includes
everything from tasks like checking emails to hosting meetings to the travel time of
your daily commute.
Use a Calendar App: Keeping all of your appointments in your head is ineffective.
That's why the most successful people use calendar tools.
Controlled Cheating: After you've have worked for 25 minute periods take a 15-30
minute break. Then begin again, 25 minutes of work/ 3-5 minute break, with a
longer break every four periods. You do this until you've completed your task or work
for the day.
Get Up Earlier:I t's much nicer - and less stressful - to wake-up before everyone else
and start tackling your day.
Exercise: Exercise helps with time management. Take a new
perspective and use exercise as a time management technique!
Physical activity improves energy levels, increases productivity
and promotes better sleep quality.
Keep Your Calendar Clear: Don't expect everyone to know
your schedule. And, to be honest, they probably don't care what
your schedule is like.
Conduct a Weekly Review of the Week :Conducting a weekly
review is an excellent time management habit to develop.
Don't Get Discouraged Over Wasted Time :Interruptions are
bound to happen. Don't let talking to your bestie for 20 minutes
make you feel you've ruined your productivity for the day.
Turn Off Email Notifications :Staying on top of your emails is
important and you need to respond to them in a timely manner.
However, that doesn't mean you have to respond immediately.
Stop Procrastinating: Stop putting off that task you've
been dreading and do it now!
Take Five Minutes: Take five minutes prior to any call or
task to decide what result you want to attain.
Stop Multitasking :Multitasking is wasteful and
ineffective
Get Easy Wins Right Away :Tackling the hardest tasks is
an excellent time management hack. But, sometimes you
need to get an easy win by completing a smaller, easier task.
De-clutter and Organize :Clutter adds stress to your life
and draws our attention away to the task at hand
Pause :Taking "pauses" not only boosts productivity, it decreases stress. "It just
makes a difference to how the rest of your day goes."
Break Large Projects Into Smaller Tasks :Breaking large tasks down into smaller,
manageable tasks.
Don't Get Pushed Around By "Time Bullies“:These are the people that invade
your time - whether if it's at home or in the office. For example, it's the client that
interrupts your vacation with frequency calls or emails. Or the kids that burst into
your home office during working hours. Don't let these bullies push you around.
Schedule Your Work in Batches: Batching your work makes it easier to focus on
one thing at a time and get more done because you aren't constantly having to
switch gears.
Learn Shortcuts
Set Deadlines For Everything :Giving deadlines to yourself is a tried and true way
to keep you on track
Delegate or Outsource
Get Creative
End Your Day on a Good Note :Review your day. What did you miss out on?
Determine the reasoning behind it so that you won't make the same mistakes again.
9)WHAT
 A teamISisAaFORMAL
group ofTEAM AND TYPES
individuals OF FORMAL
selected TEAMS?
and united
over an undertaking or goal. A successful team funnels
the ability of members for the all-around good of the
organization. Managers in each workplace speak about
building the team, working as a team and my team,
but very few of them are familiar with the experiences
generated from teams and the effectiveness that work
teams bring forth in handling tasks assigned to them.
Types of formal teams
Command team :These type of formal teams are often formed within the
organization and particularly within singular departments.  They comprise of the
departmental manager and a team of employees under the manager’s authority.
This team often has employees reporting to a single manager, and they work
together under the supervision of the manager to achieve a common goal.
Task forces :Task forces are often created to tackle specific issues that are critical
to the organization. These teams are usually formed on a temporary basis until a
solution to the arising situation is found.
Committees : Committees are a type of formal work teams established by the
management to perform an ongoing specific organizational task. Committees,
unlike task forces, are often long term.
Conclusion
Formal teams can be formed anywhere anytime provided there is a need. You
just need to understand what type of team you should build the procedure for
creating that team and ensure that it works efficiently in producing results that
are beneficial to the organization.
10) HOW TO DRESS FOR A JOB INTERVIEW
A wise man once said, “You cannot climb the ladder of success dressed in
the costume of failure.”
Your attire is the first thing people notice when you walk
into an interview. This makes it absolutely essential that you
dress properly when you present yourself to the selection
board. In fact, it will be expected of you to dress well for the
interaction. A scruffy, messy or ungroomed look is
guaranteed to earn you negative marks.
The other thing to keep in mind is to look the part. Different
sectors have different dress codes, which complicates
matters when it comes to finalizing one’s interview
wardrobe.
Creative jobs, for instance, have a much more relaxed dress
code than the corporate sector. Some individual companies,
too, have their own dress codes and what you wear is often
used as a yardstick by interviewers to assess how familiar
you are with the culture of the company and whether you’d
be a good fit.
The bottom line is there is no overarching directive when it
comes to dressing for an interview. It really depends on a
number of variables like the industry, company, department
and the position you are applying for.
However, there are a few ground rules which exist that are
non-negotiable. Those would include a well-groomed
appearance, no body odour, clean, sharply pressed and well-
fitted clothes, short nails, brushed hair and polished shoes.
Interview Wardrobe Dos and Don’ts

  Stick to business-professional looks.


Those who dress inappropriately or too informal can be
seen as having a more casual attitude toward work and
authority.
 If you aren’t comfortable in your outfit, that will come
across in an interview.
Check out the office attire prior to showing up for the
interview. If everyone at the office is wearing shorts and you
arrive in a suit, you won’t fit in.
When in doubt, bring a jacket and carry it with you. You
can throw it on if you need a more formal look or leave it
off to be casual.
