Sharing something worth five minutes if you are hiring returning NRIs or are one.

“They asked me why I am coming back in every round. Nobody asked what I am coming back to do.”

This week's #Beyond Borders lays out four things returning candidates wish companies understood, each fixable at zero cost!

There’s a booming business in India right now that most people don’t know about.

High-THC #cannabis products (gummies, oils, injections) are being sold online as Ayurvedic medicine under official government licences.

A short WhatsApp chat with a doctor is often enough to get them delivered.

here are my reflections.

Has industry experience become overrated?

After 34 years in executive search, I see boards asking a different question:

"Can this person lead us into what's next?"

Here's my sketchnote on the shift from pedigree to perspective.

Lionel Messi takes the field tonight as Argentina face Spain in the World Cup final.

Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy shared the football field with Messi during an active game.

To celebrate the World Cup, the Telangana Government has allowed commercial establishments to remain open until 4 AM this weekend, and fans can also enjoy a public screening at People's Plaza.

From sharing the field with Messi to creating a memorable experience for football lovers, Telangana is joining the global football celebration.

@NewsAlgebraIND Revanth Reddy made Messi walk more than defenders ever could.

Disturbing..

[@Coreena Enet Suares @CoreenaSuares2]

#Hyderabad- An IPS Officer Trainee at the National Police Academy complaint that Mr. Uday Krishna Reddy, a fellow IPS Officer Trainee, has been harassing her by sending sexually abusive messages to her through WhatsApp. Case booked

Complaint-

He also made derogatory comments
about me within the Academy infront of my friends in Telugu. He falsely accused me of having a sexual relationship with another trainee on completely baseless grounds. Thereafter, he pressurizing me to admit to such an alleged relationship. He also referred to me using abusive words such as "bit**" and "shameless.

Through intimidation and blackmail, he forced me to open and show him my personal messages.

What happened at the NPA-

On 8th July, he further escalated the harassment by taking away my mobile phone to his room and forcing me into revealing the password.

On 09th July , at around 9:00 p.m., he wrongfully restrained me, forcibly took me to his room, grabbed me by the hair, attempted to strangulate me, and held a knife against my neck and didn’t allow her to leave his room. Then, he threw 3 packets of condo** at me.

On 10th July at around 7:50 a.m., he again physically assaulted me by his hand.

On 08th July , He groped me, and attempted to touch me. He
also recorded a private video of me without my knowledge or consent and sent it to my husband with the intention of blackmailing me.

Further, he tried to tarnish my image by false and degrading information.

This is the statement of the complainant.

A Pune hiring manager once told me: "He kept telling me what he did in Singapore. I needed to know what he'd do in Pune."

She hired someone else.

The best conferences don't just transfer knowledge. They redesign conversations.

Day 1 of @SHRMindia #UnConference 2026 challenged a few assumptions I didn't expect.

Here's what stayed with me.

[ᜰ @markklfc]

Thomas Tuchel on Lionel Messi’s masterclass against England.

🗣️ “I’ve coached against some of the greatest footballers in history, but nights like this remind you why Lionel Messi is different. We prepared for him all week. We had plans, we had markers, we had instructions… and none of it was enough. He punished us with two moments of absolute genius.”

“You can stop him for 85 minutes, but Messi only needs five seconds to destroy everything you’ve built. That’s what happened tonight. Two assists, no panic, no wasted movement just pure football intelligence. He doesn’t force the game. He waits… and when you make one mistake, you’re dead.”

“I was shouting from the touchline because I knew the danger every time he received the ball. My players knew it too. Yet knowing what Messi is capable of and actually stopping him are two completely different things. He sees passes that nobody else in world football even imagines.”

“People talk about speed and strength. Messi doesn’t need either. His brain is faster than every defender on the pitch. He dictates the tempo, manipulates space and tears teams apart without looking like he’s trying. That is what true greatness looks like.”

“As painful as this defeat is for England, I refuse to lie. We were beaten by a footballer who continues to redefine the game at 39 years old. Two assists in a World Cup semi-final, carrying his country into another final… that’s not normal. That’s history unfolding in front of your eyes.”

“Sometimes, as a coach, you have to accept an uncomfortable truth. We didn’t just lose to Argentina we lost to Lionel Messi. And if he plays the final like he played tonight, the rest of the world should be very worried.”
