Thought Leadership

Innovation from Outside the Industry
Satyam’s foremost expert on innovation discusses how organizations can apply creativity and ingenuity from other industries to gain a competitive edge. He also lists numerous examples of organizations that have succeeded with this approach.

Design for Costing
Design for Costing is a streamlined engineering approach that begins and ends with a fixed price. It fosters creativity and helps companies develop truly transformational products, rather than simply enhancing existing ideas.

Green Engineering
Computers, cell phones and batteries are some of the planet’s most notorious culprits for high-tech trash. New designs, however, are making disposal of these items much less harmful to the environment.

Distributed Leadership
In an article for NYSE Magazine, Satyam Chairman B. Ramalinga Raju discusses the organization’s unique approach to building leaders faster than the competition.

5> mango, orange problem.... basically from R.S.Agrawal book.

6> Two qustions from CAT logical reasoning. The ones having 4 figures, we have to find the fifth. I was well prepared in that type. Most of the people got eliminated in these kind of problems only. One should be very carefull while answering such qeustions, b'coz you will find 2 figures which may look like right answers, but only one has the exact relationship with the previous 4 figures. So, you should be carefull in choosing such answers. I got them right.

7> Most of the rest were like george summers things, but modified perfectly. Like one of them tell you the exact truth, one sometimes tell you the truth, one lies. So, startr with which you see as wrong first. In my case I started with the thing which most others thought it to be wrong. I wrote that as answer. I got it right.
