O It Will Cost Nothing To Grow Like a Tree: Your Inner Work Fuels Outer Success – By Dr. Gyanendra Pratap Singhy डॉ. ज्ञानेन्द्र प्रताप सिंह Ph.D. (Psychology), IIM Ahmedabad विशेषज्ञता: मानव संसाधन (HR), मनोविज्ञान, प्रशिक्षण, शोध और मानसिक स्वास्थ्य-संबंधी लेखन 🌱 Introduction: What Plants Teach Us About Growth हम जब पौधों की growth को observe करते हैं, तो एक गहरा psychological संदेश सामने आता है। एक बीज पहले अपने roots को मिट्टी में फैलाता है — मजबूती से, चुपचाप — और तभी उसका shoot ऊपर उठता है। इंसानों में भी यही principle लागू होता है। हमारी visible success हमारी inner depth पर टिकी होती है। 🌿 Shoot-Root Metaphor: Inner vs. Outer Self Shoot दर्शाता है हमारे external actions, personality और performance को। वहीं Root दर्शाता है हमारी emotional beliefs, values और subconscious programming को। सिर्फ shoot को polish करने से हम ज्यादा दूर नहीं जा सकते; असली बदलाव तब आता है जब हम अपनी inner roots पर काम करते हैं। 🌧 Psychological Blocks: What’s Holding Us Back? हमारे अंदर कई psychological...

Root-Shoot Dynamics of Nature for Human Growth

Root-Shoot Dynamics of Nature for Human Growth Dr Gyanandra Pratap Singh  HR, psychology, Content writer  Let’s Just Start With Nature… Hey there, Ever paused and thought—what does a plant really teach us? Well, this blog is kinda about that. Not sciencey, not preachy—just a gentle nudge to remind you (and me) that we’re not separate from nature, we are nature. But in our mad rush for growth, goals, gadgets, and industries, we've somewhere dropped the connection. Especially with the way plants grow—with roots and shoots doing their beautiful dance. So imagine this: the roots are quietly working underground, soaking up water, holding things steady. And above, the shoots are basking in the sun, reaching higher, greener, louder. Roots are the silent strength, and shoots are the visible success. Now, don’t you think that’s exactly how we grow too? 🌿 Covey’s Wisdom Fits Right In Now, here’s where Stephen Covey (yeah, the 7 Habits guy) comes in with a gem of a thought. He says—ev...

My Story of Fixing HR in Oman

My Story of Fixing HR in Oman By Dr. Gyanendra Pratap Singh 💼 When I joined an Omani company in 2009, HR was virtually nonexistent—no systems, no structure, and no accountability. Many might have felt defeated. But I saw an opportunity. Over three years, we: ✅ Activated real attendance tracking ✅ Overhauled contract and recruitment systems ✅ Built HR functions from scratch ✅ Linked performance to rewards ✅ Raised company performance by 43% This wasn’t theory. It was hands-on transformation—done with people, persistence, and purpose. 📝 I've shared my full story here: 👉 [Insert Link to Blog or Article] Let me know your thoughts—or share your own HR transformation journey. #HRTransformation #Leadership #ChangeManagement #OmanExperience #HRSystems #PeopleFirst #DrGyanendraSingh #OrganizationalDevelopment #LinkedInBlog #HRLeadership #ResilienceAtWork When I landed in Oman in August 2009, I carried with me decades of experience in HR, a suitcase of professional values, and a deep...

What If HR Isn’t Just About Managing People… But Truly Understanding Them?

OWhat If HR Isn’t Just About Managing People… But Truly Understanding Them? Here’s a thought I’ve been sitting with— As we step into 2025, HR is evolving fast. But maybe it’s not just about technology or trends. Maybe it’s about tuning into something far more human. 💡 What if HR was less about policies and more about purpose? Less about structure and more about sentiment? After 40+ years in psychology, HR systems, and leadership development, I see something powerful unfolding— HR is no longer a back-office function. It’s becoming the soul of the workplace. HR Sifts In 2025 Later… Let me walk you through the 5 biggest shifts we’re witnessing this year—and what they’re really teaching us about people and potential: 🔹 AI in HR → Not a replacement, but a sharp partner 🔹 Skills-first hiring → Real capability > fancy degrees 🔹 Remote work → More flexibility, but deeper need for connection 🔹 DE&I → From checklists to culture shifts 🔹 Employee well-being → From burnout to b...

क्या Self-Neglect हमें धीरे-धीरे खत्म कर रहा है?

क्या Self-Neglect हमें धीरे-धीरे खत्म कर रहा है? (Thought-provoking और आज के common search queries जैसे self-destruction और mental health से जुड़ा विषय) The Event… कुछ समय पहले मैंने अपने brother-in-law टुनटुन को खो दिया। वह 60 के पार थे, हाल ही में retire हुए थे, और बाहर से बेहद lively लगते थे। Kind, helpful, and always supporting others—ऐसे इंसान जिन पर हर कोई depend करता था। लेकिन उनकी मुस्कान के पीछे एक deep disregard for his own needs छिपी थी। व हमेशा खुद से ज़्यादा दूसरों की care करते थे। अब जब मैं उनकी life पर सोचता हूँ, तो समझ आता है कि वह एक hidden psychological script के तहत जी रहे थे—  "I am not important." शुरुआत में यह सोच harmless लग सकती है। लेकिन personal experience और scientific research बताती है कि यह मानसिकता इंसान की physical और mental health को धीरे-धीरे खत्म कर सकती है। क्या ‘I am not important’ की सोच सच में घातक साबित हो सकती है? It seems, Yes, it can. Atleast, data suggest so.... 1. “I Am Not Important” Script – A Silent Killer? Transactional Analy...

Whether Training Is In Autopilot Mode

Whether Training Is In Autopilot Mode Ensuring that training is aligned with business goals and effectively applied by employees requires strong support from line managers and top management. When you read this title, you might think, "Oh, another marketing gimmick!" But take a moment to reflect—are we truly delivering effective training, or are we just going through the motions? Let’s dig deeper with a scenario. Imagine you're at Company X, where employees attend training sessions, but afterward, they don't apply what they've learned. This situation raises a critical question: Are we investing in superficial gains rather than achieving tangible results? Typically, we start training by defining learning objectives and creating content to support them. But what happens after the training ends? Are we ensuring that employees apply their new skills to drive real business outcomes? We Want That Trainings be Aligned to Business? It’s time to address the disconnect betw...

How You Overcome Internal Barriers and Achieve Personal Growth

Image
How You Overcome Internal Barriers and Achieve Personal Growth You know, Overcoming internal barriers involves recognizing limiting beliefs, cultivating self-belief, and embracing resilience to achieve personal growth and happiness. We all carry within us certain beliefs and patterns that shape how we see ourselves and the world. These internal barriers can be the silent obstacles that hold us back from achieving our true potential. Over the years, both in my professional life and personal experiences, I’ve encountered these barriers and learned how to confront them. Understanding Internal Barriers Internal barriers are the beliefs and fears deeply rooted in our subconscious that influence our actions, often without us even realizing it. I remember a time when my daughter, despite her exceptional achievements, confided in me that she didn’t feel happy about receiving a distinction in her dissertation at Cardiff University. This puzzled me. Why would someone not feel joy at such a signi...
