  8. Prof. Hersh ChadhaOPM (Harvard) ARPS INDIA – WORLD’S FIRST SOFT SUPERPOWER U.S. SECRETARY OF STATE, HILLARY CLINTON, MADE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS: • “ I CONSIDER INDIA NOT JUST A REGIONAL POWER BUT A GLOBAL POWER. ” • “ INDIA IS POISED FOR ECONOMIC GROWTH AND GLOBAL PEACE. IT IS POISED TO BECOME A MORE POWERFUL NATION. ”

  9. THIS IS BASED ON THE FACT THAT THE GOVERNMENTS WHO HAVE PUMPED SO MUCH MONEY INTO THEIR FINANCIAL SYSTEMS CANNOT LAST LONG ENOUGH TILL THE SIGNS OF ECONOMIC RECOVERY AND THEIR TIMING TO ADJUST THESE FISCAL PACKAGES WITH THE ECONOMIC RISE IS A TRICKY QUESTION FOR THEM AS THE GLOBALISATION OF MONEY AND ITS IMPACT AFFECTS US ALL WORLDWIDE. Prof. Hersh ChadhaOPM (Harvard) ARPS “W’ SHAPED RECESSION THE GREAT RECESSION IS MOVING MORE TOWARDS A “W” AND NOT A “V” OR “U” SHAPE.

  10. Prof. Hersh ChadhaOPM (Harvard) ARPS Gossip Slide 1 of 2 In ancient Greece (469 - 399 BC), Socrates was widely lauded for his wisdom.     One day the great philosopher came upon an acquaintance who ran up to him excitedly and said, "Socrates, do you know what I just heard about one of your students?"   Wait a moment," Socrates replied. "Before you tell me I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test."     "Triple filter?“   "That's right," Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about my student let's take a moment to filter what you're going to say. The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?“ "No," the man said, "actually I just heard about it and..." 

  11. Prof. Hersh ChadhaOPM (Harvard) ARPS Gossip Slide 2 of 2   "All right," said Socrates. "So you don't really know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my student something good?" "No, on the contrary..."   "So," Socrates continued, "you want to tell me something bad about him, even though you're not certain it's true?"   The man shrugged, a little embarrassed.     Socrates continued. "You may still pass the test though, because there is a third filter - the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my student going to be useful to me?"   "No, not really..."     "Well," concluded Socrates, "if what you want to tell me is neither True nor Good nor even Useful, why tell it to me at all?" …..   This is the reason Socrates was a great philosopher and held in such high esteem.
