Open Glocal Collaborations!
A Mass Development Movement!!
By Pratap Hegde / NV Paulose
Purandara Das wrote it five hundred years back. Who did the marvellous colouring over the wings of a Peacock? Who gave that amazing overview for that little parrot? Many things in the universe are designed by none in the world of ownership claims. Can we call the super power be the master mind? Definitely can’t! The one who is invisible does it not for any kind of glory. A masterpiece is fully contented in its creation itself. Not even satisfaction can be an outcome thereupon. The make itself is the entire thing inclusive of everything else as well.
This being the case in the make of the universe and every masterpiece within it; can we human beings do something in line with the universal alignment of creativity? Can we look into the nature and natural habitats and happenings? Can we learn our lost lessons from the nature? Can this help to build up the economy of India as a whole and leverage it into manifold? Can we work on Open Glocal (Global + Local) Collaborations?
Can corporates be reframed with collaborates? Can global and local merge and converge to become glocal? Can digital connectivity make emergence of digital villages worldwide ? For example , The Udupi cuisines that had become Udupi Hotels today have become non-functional at Covid 19 pandemic. Can this give way for emergence of a Glocal Digital E -Commerce Platform for Udupi Cuisine Ingredients , Ready to Eat Products , On line Cooking Classes etc.. delivered to the world and being the pride of every person from Udupi District? Every district in India are specialised in one or other unique specialisations. We can now come out from the greed based big brand concepts to the need based universal branding concepts. India is my country is a pride privilege of every Indian. Let every place have the same ways of branding. Let the brand belongs to everyone who belong to the land.
Let our capital holdings become a handholding for the people. The least in the list also will be able to contribute their best in such a renewed outlook. We should move from company set ups to community culture. Community is a power tower that can cater specifically to the needs of everyone in the community. Community approach can create exponential career progress for the young generation in the new dynamic digital world. Ladies can become part of the progress being at home. Everyone seeking opportunities will get suitable roles to demonstrate their passion and to make use of their talents for exponential economic and social transformation. The dynamics of community will automatically become vibrant.
All of us or any of us can take a lead in this process. We all can contribute all our might unconditionally in a national development process? This is a welcome movement. It can sure become a national movement for rebuilding Indian Economy. Simply welcome people and offer them a hearing. Social distancing need not emotionally distance as. The conversation process can happen digitally and over all available platforms.
At the end of every move it has to touch the ground realities. We should engage people in economic growth processes. It can be water rejuvenation programs, farmer strengthening initiatives like food processing projects or innovations at grassroots. People should become a chain of excellence at every level of initiatives. Those who are experienced can offer free mentorship. Offices can open doors for meetings for planning and execution of projects. Offices can provide coordination services.
At each level we should be able to create new avenues for at least one thousand people. Can we create each project identified being an ‘Open Glocal Collaboration’ so that the effort applied at one place become foundation to build career opportunities across the nation? Many existing areas of activities also can accommodate more people in this way. Offices that are promoting brands can make it open for people across the nation. It is not franchisee model or any kind of structural subordination. Take people into confidence and make them clear and vibrant stakeholders. Let the progress be propelled with enthusiasm and zeal.
Open Glocal Collaboration is an invitation to every Indian across the world. Operate a brand with independent status in a collective format. One is responsible to build the brand and also to enjoy the fruits of every hard work. Ethics is the prime governing principle and thus boundaries are drawn without many lines of control. Such movements will set parameters automatically without having many agreements to sign up between people. Standard are being set automatically and the people who keep up the standard will keep pace with the establishment which is more than a paper establishment. One can get in and move out from these universal establishments just like boarding a flight and moving out at the departure gate. Normally everyone will keep moving with the flight! It’s a ticketless journey in a supersonic flight that’s not afflicted with the pandemic of greed!
