The Trusted Advocate: Accelerate Success with Authenticity and Integrity

About the Authors

The Authors are committed to Your Success

To be successful, to attain what you want, you must first put aside your material goals - those goals will only get in your way. You must be absolutely committed to who you can be. When you maintain a resilient focus on who you want to be, what you ultimately have will be a by-product of your level of commitment.

Does this seem contrary to what we are taught to believe?

Being trustworthy is not about trying to convince others that you can be trusted while intending to take advantage of them. Being trustworthy means absolute dedication to personal character. It is about who you want to be.

The authors are committed to your success, We are devoted to helping you obtain a level of satisfaction you may not have believed existed. We are committed to your goals. This will be reflected in what you do and in the relationships you share with your customers. Certainly, the development of these relationships may result in amassing personal wealth and possessions, but that is a pleasant by-product of the process.

Be-Do-Have

  1. Be: What you are and who you aspire to be.

  2. Do: The person you are dictates what you do and the actions that you take.

  3. Have: By acting in the manner of the person you aspire to be, you will achieve more than you thought possible

Questions for the reader:

  • How would you act if you had everything that you want and need?

  • Would it influence your actions and decisions if you could worry less, and be more confident of your own success?

  • Isn't it about time that you made an investment into your success and happiness?

Overall IT projections to take a hit
Week after week, the inflation figures continue to create havoc in our lives and as the figure looks set to surge past 12 per cent mark, good news remains remote. Even as the government battles prices inflation and with the crude prices coming down a little too late, companies have already begun to run for cover.
For starters, IT projections for the coming quarters are going to take a hit and profits could shrink in. Alternate usage of resources is the name of the game and companies such as Zylog Systems have come up with initiatives such as Recycle Accelerator to fight this menace. John Mehrmann, vice president--Business Development at Zylog Systems Ltd (ZSL) shares his views with Prasad Ramasubramanian from CyberMedia News.

ET IT INTELLIGENCE CONCLAVE 2008
Recycling E-waste

Who would think that e-waste can inspire community harmony. Speaking at the IT Intelligence Conclave, John Mehrmann, vice president, business development, and Ananth Chaganathy, senior vice president Enterprise Solution, of Zylog Systems were optimistic that combined efforts of manufacturers, government, recyclers, collectors and buyers of downstream materials can tackle the burgeoning piles of e-trash in India. In return, job opportunities expand as demand for workforce increases, it was noted. Already the worldwide revenue for e-waste recycling is set to touch $11 billion in 2009. The increasing use of consumer electronics in India has triggered the need to start managing domestic e-waste, before the problem escalates to mountains of trash. As Mr Chaganathy pointed out, with limited resources in hand, there's no option but to recycle and reclaim the waste. Discarded hardware finds a substantial place in the growing market for second hand products at global auctions and sales. So, even though black and white desktop screens might have lost love with the US market, they are now being revamped for use in the African subcontinent. India, too, needs to strengthen its e-recycling capabilities for ensuring environment sustainability, felt Mr Mehrmann. There is a growing urgency for government to work with the various components of this informal sector to encourage awareness and come up with solutions for e-waste dumping in the country. Mehrmann suggested that by bringing together collectors and manufacturers, government can tighten the procurement channel and facilitate optimal re-use of e-waste. Interactions between these two units can supply requisite data to the manufacturers for efficient refurbishment of e-waste. Government also needs to shoulder the responsibility of educating the consumer on disposal and reuse. On the issue of legislations, Mr Mehrmann suggested that India can take look at similar efforts made by its global counterparts. Just like the RoHS legislation, that restricts the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic products, India should eliminate poisonous wastes, and adopt eco-friendly e-waste disposal operations. Such an effort will also ensure positive visibility for the government, he added.

The Hindu Business Line :
Zylog software solution to track, recycle e-waste
Chennai, July 4 Chennai-based Zylog Systems Ltd has developed a software solution for tracking and (hence) recycling, e-waste. To develop the product, Zylog spent a million dollars (Rs 4 crore) and roped in a ‘reverse logistics’ expert, Mr John Mehrmann, who had over two decades of experience working for Toshiba. Manufacturers are responsible for managing effective recycling programs, but lack reporting by product, since most incoming goods are only tracked by weight. Manufacturers have not yet created systems to authorize and regulate collectors and recyclers, Mr Mehrmann told Business Line. The future versions of Recycle Accelerator will enable call centers to refer consumers to a collaborative network of collectors and recyclers. Manufacturers will be able to track products received and the effectiveness of recycling. Government agencies will have the ability to audit compliance, track performance, and identify abuse or precious metal theft, he said.
