Skills for Excellence
Skills for Excellence
Author: Luis S. R. Vas
Luis Vas’s "Skills for Excellence" initially appears to be yet another book in an unending list of motivational books. Yet it does look like another MBA aspirant’s book.
The manner in which the author has handled this subject, it can well be called the Dummy’s Book of Going Through Everybody’s Life. He has systematically explained each concept methodically, with the aid of subheads, and even graphs. While going through the book, what actually strikes you are the last few chapters that talk about how to tackle studies and school. These chapters induce you to keep on reading till the end. The author explained a simple thing like learning a chapter just as my teacher in school had taught me a long time ago. Read on and the best part is the simple exercises given to the readers to follow everyday. Again, these are so simple even an average person can follow.
"Skills for Excellence" is a valuable book that can help inspire confidence to face the challenges of everyday world.

Solve Your Problems - The Birbal Way
Solve Your Problems-The Birbal Way
Authors: Luis S. R. Vas; Anita Vas
Tire of cramming? Looking for fun? Want to hone your creativity?
In our childhood, we knew Birbal as the sharp, witty and intelligent minister of Emperor Akbar. We read his stories, enjoyed them thoroughly, and then forgot them. We probably never thought his sagacity and problem-solving acumen could one day help us manage many of our own problems at home or at the office.
The 200-page book contains 85 small but engrossing tales “to spark your creative thinking”. A paragraph or two on management morals, safe and applicable, follows the stories.
Today it has become trendy to identify different management principles with historical and mythical personalities such as Attila the Hun, Winnie the Pooh, Mulla Nasiruddin, and Confucius, and with philosophies like Bhagawad Gita, Sufism Zen, Taoism, and the Bible. Against this backdrop, the authors unveil the problem-solving principles that Birbal’s stories portray.
If readers pause just before the solution is given and think of their own solution to the problem, they would be surely be honing their own creativity.
