Working Life Management:
I understand there is a Small Gap and thin line between Work and Personal Life, First thing i do is i never mix these two things, i plan in such a way that there wont be any overlap between these two things and also first thing is i always leave my Work related things at Work Place only.
Done Differently:
Train Young Grads... ! Make them mold them into Future Leaders.

Changes In The Professional Environment:
I would say there is lot of change one thing i can tell is now Knowledge is more important then Experience, and another thing is What you know is important its not like how much You know is not Important
