Business Management .

Business management studies have become a most charged form,in the sense,vey expensive, very much unrelated.
The business practices have been best learnt from experience, than by rote.
The management institutions are levying heavy fees,to impart the most erroneous methods ,as to how to handle corporate business. I may sound too negative, but that is what has evolved out of MBA.


Learning itself ,has taken a dimension that is far remote from the practicality.
In ancient days, toddlers got admitted in gurukuls.
Catch them young , if you can, as the tender age is the most impressionistic year to assimilate eeverything that is taught.
Addition, subtraction , multiplication, and division, the basis of mathematics were mentally worked out, however much difficult be the problem.Thus the memory developed ,along with  it the anlytical faculty also got sharpened.
Spellings, grammer were forced into the curriculum that the style of writing  and the way of speech became  spectacular.
Having mastered the basics of education, language and mathematica, students chose their subjects according to their liking and capacity.
Education blossomed.



The business minded took orientation from a renowned business man.
The famous nagarathar community , down South India, a flourishing merchant clan, sent their children ,(sons), overseas to their own business centres, as an errand boy to the chief agent.
The twelve year old boy, though the son of the properietor, was treated as one of the staff by the Manager.
He had to run on errands, go to the post office, to the bank, why even , has to run to buy tea for the guests ,at times.
Slowly , the chief took him into the fold,by asking him to write down the entries, taught him the debit and credit  modus, then asked him to total the expenditure, and conclude the accounts by tallying with the credit.
The power agent , in the second stage  asked the boy, who would have reached the age of fifteen, to accompany hin to the plantations or other trade centeres.
The boy was made to observe the transactions, absorb the nuances, and then account for them.
This management study, of theory and practice , was diligently followed by most families, and their children emerged successful, by expanding their business further.
Extending their merchandise in unknown laands, these boys, who had reached the twenties, got familiar with the locals, learnt their language, and became one with them.

They were not conferred with any degree or diploma, but emerged as successful business men .



 The masters in business administration course conducted by top class universities pose a pittance to the Nagarathar training.



The Management  institutions should refer the methodology of this small community, and try to include the course of programming  of this clan into their curriculum.
The  schedule was in depth evasive, and focused. ,though disimilar to the modern management distinctions.

Business means profit,
Profit declares the winner,
