KOLKATA: Uninor, a JV between Norway's Telenor and property firm Unitech, has absorbed about 100 of the 400 direct staffers whose jobs were on the line after the scale-down in four of the 13 circles where it runs mobile services.

Its direct staff strength is now down to 1900 from 2200.

Some of the redeployed staff will stay in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka and Orissa where Uninor will maintain a skeletal presence to retain GSM airwaves. The others are being relocated to Uninor's nine profitable zones and its corporate headquarters, a top company executive said.

"Almost 100 direct employees have secured continuing employment in Uninor and are placed in various locations based on their suitability for available positions in priority circles and their willingness to relocate," said Uninor's chief human resources officer Sumit Sharma, adding that some of the remaining 300 had changed jobs.

Uninor hopes to save more direct jobs if new vacancies can be created in the priority circles but it is also trying to assist employees find jobs outside.

"We've engaged outplacement agencies in impacted circles and shared details of vacancies in competition companies to help our impacted staff find employment outside Uninor," said Sharma, adding that some placements had been concluded and more were in the offiing.

But Uninor claimed it is legally constrained from hiring the 1600 indirect staff hit by the scale-down. "Since the indirect staff is employed by our distributors and manpower companies, Uninor cannot legally offer them a change in employment," said Sharma.

Uninor is among the 9 telcos whose mobile permits were quashed by the Supreme Court on February 2. Last month, the apex court set January 11, 2013, as the deadline for concluding the 2G auction and allowed telcos whose licences had been revoked to continue operations till January 18.

How to be master of any skill ?

How do you become good at something? Most psychologists agree
it’s repetition that makes something easy for us to do and
that’s borne out by a study of our brain, which fires neurons
in a repetitive way, called habituation.

But when we do something so repetitively that we don’t enjoy it
any more, it becomes boring.

Unless we have a particular taste for it, or it keeps our
interest. A friend of mine has had the hobby of building model
cars for many years. It would bore me to tears, but he absolutely
loves it, and cannot wait to get his hands on new model cars to
build. Even though he has over 150 already!

What makes it so he can really enjoy that hobby? And how could we become good at something through practice without boring
ourselves rigid?

Well, it’s been proved that we can become good at something if:

1) We really want to achieve it

2) We believe we really can achieve it

3) We enjoy trying to achieve it

And that third point is the real biggee!

Most people, when they are trying to improve or develop a skill,
really want it and believe they can achieve it. However, if they
practice on and on and on, and don’t achieve it, then most
start to give up, eventually coming to a halt and leaving it. The
trying to do it is the everyday reality of practice. Trying is
exactly the opposite of achieving. Trying is actually NOT
achieving it.

Malcolm Gladwell, in his book Outliers, talks about research
carried out at the Berlin Academy of music. The researchers
studied three categories of violin players: the stars, the good
performers and those who would end up teaching but not
performing.

It turned out that the number one predictor of which category the
violinist would fall into was the number of hours they tried and
practiced.

The future teachers had practiced up to four thousand hours. The
good performer, up to eight thousand hours. And the stars? Each
one had practiced over ten thousand hours. According to the
author, ten thousand hours was the magical number that people
need to practice before they become stars at anything. That
equates to over five years of full-time work to become a star.
And that’s while learning and practicing along the way.

This means you had better start enjoying something you are
practicing. You’ll simply not spend ten thousand hours
practicing something you won’t enjoy. Find your passion first.
Then practice. You’ll not practice long enough if you don’t
enjoy it.

Make sure that you’re persistent in what you enjoy. That way,
you’ll enjoy spending the time it will take to master it.
