Global TV | We Engage Visionaries & Action Leaders | We have a Large Human Resource Pool | Get Right Professional | Comparatively Lesser Cost |

Engaging Visionaries and Action Leaders is more powerful than employing mediocre people. We need to strike a balance to achieve individual and organizational goals.

From the very inception of Global TV or even before, we were convinced about the rich human resource that are beyond the reach of salaries and pay cheques. Integrity and Dignity are the core values of the visionaries and action leaders who are willing to serve the society and social cause for free. All of them keep certain revenue streams to take care of their financial requirements. Rest of their time and energy are driven towards social causes. We banked on them to meet our huge human resource requirements. There were a synergy working without we realizing that we were sharing their dreams thinking those were our dreams. It was much later that we have realized about the real attractions to visionaries are not money or positions. The bigger goals in life are all surrounded around simple pleasures.

The seeds of Global TV was sown in the year 1993 when NV Paulose, the founder of Global TV stepped into Print Media first time in life. He went on to learn various dynamics of Print Media and prepared himself for an overall excellence. His getting into the Media Stream was at a time when a transformation was taking place in Malayalam media as such. A big revival was happening to the first Malayalam News Paper that was at the verge of closure. He was taken into a positive storm without knowing the undercurrents at the top end. He had role models like Dr. PK Abraham, a doyen in turnaround business transformation, Mr. Tom Cyriac, who was a passionate team leader and responsible marketing manager. Started at the bottom line, he got opportunities to climb the ladder faster.

There were options to perform innovative ideas and unusual strategies. The team was entirely dynamic and every team member was in one or the other way excelling in their segment of operation. There were no space for any mediocre performance in the entire establishment. The transformation was so powerful that the Times of India wrote a story about Deepika saying it was the Second Coming of the group.

Chaos to clarity was made with responsible leadership methods. Ideas were welcomed and responsibilities were attached with every one who comes up with ideas. Sanctions and permissions were instant and performance was the way to remain in positions. Everyone went searching green patches to feed the system. Collective team work was brilliant even when there were egos running behind and some times overtaking the main goals.

It was during the nineties, the Internet proliferated into the media space with narrow band. Broadband was not opened up by then for various reasons. NV Paulose could foresee the emerging times and the emerging trends in the media. He had a bigger vision and thought process understanding the underlying problems in the economy of prosperity that went on increasing the gap between financial rich and the emotionally rich. He had realized the potential and also the possibilities of risk involved in the process.

New horizons were explored, opportunities created, space and time went dancing with an appropriate rhythm of performance. This was a wonderful learning experience for the founder of Global TV to get himself prepared to be calm and composed even when placed in a fire or frying pan.

Two great realizations during the process

We had two realizations in the process. One was about the role of people in making an organization successful. Other one was about the mounting infrastructure in the country that are under utilized. True success is possible when we connect these two aspects of success. Office less Organizations and Employee less Establishments were the outcomes. Our difficulty to mobilize large capital was turning to become an advantage for us. The new idea of connecting people with visionary establishments emerged today as a brilliant idea. Establishments are welcoming performing people. People are encouraged to create their own salary funds to make their future safe and secured.

Global TV today is a reservoir of a large human resource of individuals enlightened self interest. We provide high profile resource persons to the collaborative institutions. Sustainable models are evolved and training platforms are formed. We are equipped and associated with professional areas that are very crucial for the development of individual and establishments. Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), Appreciative Inquiry (AI) and Enneagram are the key professional areas that we are proficient and often connect with the developmental collaborations. We are also good at using Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools although when we believe in the importance of learning the art of excellence. We tell people not to trust Artificial Intelligence over Actual Intelligence. It will be like having a helicopter without engaging a Pilot or giving a garland in the hands of monkeys. Of course, Monkeys also does good jobs.

Working at the Offices of the Visionaries

Global TV started to work at the offices of the visionaries. Shooting were done at offices, residences and even at hotels. Cost saving was the idea at every instance. Visionaries came forward to meet up the cost involved in the preparation of videos. Several collaborations were taken place. Many people liked our mild approach and cordial attitude. We were tightening our expenditure side. There were no money for the key people involved at every instance to draw salaries from. There were no starvation just because of the interventions from the heaven most of the time. The founder of Global TV had to take up regular job at few occasions during the period. One was with the first Colour newspaper in Kannada Language and the second one was with the Express Group of Publications. Collaborations and Co working continued wherever possibl

Inspiration From Dr APJ Abdul Kalam

During the year 2002,when Dr. Kalam became the 11th President of India, NV Paulose, the founder of Global TV was heading the Sales Department of Express Publication’s Belgaum Edition. Small Aim is a crime was the popular statement from the Honorable President reported on all newspapers in India on 26 July 2006. It was so powerful and influential for the founder of Global TV.

His initiative to conduct (International Conference on India 2020) ICON 2020 had impressed the Honorable President a lot. It was an unusual achievement during those days. The idea floated in the year 2003 had taken a long time to materialize and reach the ears of the Honorable President of India. Finally the conference had happened of 25 July 2007. It was the last day of Dr. Kalam in the office of the Honorable President of India. The following song composed by Dr. Kalam himself is the testimony and reminiscence of the nostalgic achievement of our founder.

Today, we richly believe in the principles of massive media collaborations and large human collaborations. Informality and flexibility are the virtues of success in the emerging world. Offices should welcome efficient people. Less employment and more engagement is the philosophy. There is no space for parasites more than what they deserve. Flourishing establishments keep collaborating with right kind of people who can deliver results. Why try your luck with those who cannot deliver. There is no pleasure valuable when they are not generating any outcome.

Future of the economy is in expansions and explorations. Stagnant establishments are overthrown by dynamic organizations. Organizing has become more important than organizations. Money cannot create money on its own. Dynamic people grow at the blink of eyes. Those who are able to visualize greater outcomes will sure be able to actualize when they engage right kind of people in the process of achieving their goals in alignment with the goals of others. Use and throw is not going to help. It will create a permanent bad remark and to come out of a bad mark is next to impossible.
