What works better - working for a big brand or a small company? The answer might surprise you.

People often think of it as a no-brainer. Join a big tech company, and the rest of it takes care of itself until they get jolted out of their silly

perceptions. Likewise, some think working at a startup is the easiest thing to do until the paycheck gets delayed ten days and your bank 

account is depleting.

On one hand, money is more at a big brand; on the other, the workload complexity doubles while the role remains straight-jacketed.

However, if you work in a boutique outfit, or a startup, for example, the flexibility is high, but the stability is low.

So how do you decide? Can you afford to make a mistake in this mad rush?  

In a  complex world and competitive environment, you need to make decisions wisely. 

Tune into this podcast, where I simplify and highlight some of the most common misconceptions or perceptions people have about working in 

these two different types of companies.

Have you become the boss you'd love to hate or hate to love? For people managers, is life more challenging than you thought it'd be?

I guess so. The question is, what are you doing differently? Or are you becoming just like your manager? Is that good or bad?

Join me in this episode of BasTalk, where I talk about front-line managers and their progression to middle management.

I share three things to consider and leverage if you are not already doing it today.

Given that culture has been eating strategy for breakfast for many decades, one wonders why hasn't it burped yet?  

We've been discussing toxic workplaces for ages, and it does not shock anymore.

If you sit on the throne long enough, the odor stops bothering you. 

Everyone knows it exists, because they're breathing it each day. 

So why does it persist?

A typical Startup Founders dilemma #23: having conviction vs being in denial!

Some founders are blessed with the gift of the gab & over time they begin to view their own BS as the real deal. This is compunded more in nascent organizations, because no one questions them. So what happens?

They succumb to confirmation bias.

A tendency to search, interpret, and out logic people in a way that confirms or supports their own preconcieved notions, make it sound real and present it as the only truth.

Gradually,they become hyper cynical,convoluted and warped in their thinking. And when results show otherwise, they find yet another counter-logic to justify the original fallacy.  There's so much power in the denial cycle,it sucks in everyone around it.They risk not just their own future but also those who follow them.

Tune in to this episode of BasTalk where I share 3 ways to navigate past confirmation bias.

Alpha leaders on notice : break the loop before its too late.

Career gaps, career breaks, resume gaps, time-off. These more or less mean the same thing: you are not employed. 

So when the next opportunity comes your way, you get nervous about the best ways to share the gap-story!

For some its a joyous reason, but for most, it's a sentimental reason, as to why they were not gainfully engaged. 

But what if you did not have a sentimental story to share? What if your backstory does not add up? What if your break was your own mistake?

How do you then handle the career gap story when the recruiter reaches out with a new job opportunity? 

Tune in to this BasTalk podcast episode to  think about three ways to manager career gaps.

I've often been asked why do a podcast, why now, why  BasTalk?

My answer has always straight and simple - I share because I care. 

I share content to make it easy for people to understand how to navigate through this complex maze of the corporate world.

In the process, I help simplify, clarify, demystify and burst some long held perceptions about management, career and office life.

In this episode, I talk about how BasTalk now reaches a global audience, whats in store for future episodes and some insights about the 

philosophy of this podcast.

Here's a list of things this podcast does not do:

1. give you life-changing gyan, 
2. save you money or 
3. make you grow rapidly!
   

Nor is it a typical Tech-Talk, or a Management big-talk. 

So what is BasTalk?

BasTalk literally means Simply,Talk!

BasTalk is a simple, practical & tactical insight from my life at work! 

It's a podcast about people management, career insights and issues from regular office-life!  

It may work for you, it may not, the goal is to get you to rethink.
