Show us a human being who does not wish for success and happiness in his life. Yet, the desired success and happiness are very illusive; they are like mirage to a large majority of people. The reason is that most of the people fall short of the required levels of effectiveness that may lead them to achieve their life time objectives. They just don't have the clue on what can give them the higher degrees of effectiveness. This ignorance proves very expensive. They keep struggling throughout their lives and keep consuming themselves and their resources without any satisfactory results. So, what should they do to acquire the required effectiveness? This book presents the answer to this question. It presents the "most effective model of effectiveness" called "HSoftware". The book unravels the "HSoftware" model in a very lucid manner. The authors explain that though each human being is unique and that uniqueness may be worthy of appreciation, yet, it does not guarantee effectiveness in each one of them. Only the acquisition of more correct and appropriate "HSoftware" and its strict practice alone can make one more effective. The book uncovers the most fundamental constituent elements of "HSoftware" in an interesting way. Shyam Bhatawdekar is the creator of this word "HSoftware" and its associated concepts. Both the authors of this book started using this phrase "HSoftware" and its related concepts in their numerous speaking assignments, seminars and workshops since 1993 or even earlier. Subsequently they started using it in the written form through their various published articles. And now they present this all encompassing effectiveness model "HSoftware" in the form of this book to help the entire humanity.The authors Shyam Bhatawdekar and Dr Kalpana Bhatawdekar are multifaceted personalities.

Authors of this travelogue, Dr Kalpana Bhatawdekar and Shyam Bhatawdekar traveled extensively on business in their capacity of top notch business executives, highly sought after business and management consultants, eminent management gurus, authentic human behavior experts and prolific authors. Yet they felt that traveling and seeing different places as a part of their business driven journeys was not as complete an experience of the visited places, as they would have liked it to be. That realization gave a kick-start to their additional journeys purely as dedicated tourists. Simultaneously, they started journalizing their various travel and sightseeing experiences. They decided to bring their travelogues in open in order to share these with all. The first travelogue published in the form of a book narrated their journey to Scandinavian countries and Russia. It was titled "Travelogue: Scandinavia, Russia". It was published in both the formats- eBook as well as paperback. Both the formats contained a number of photographs of the places visited by the authors. The readers liked the book quite a lot. But due to inclusion of the photographs the cost of the printed version of the book became little too high to be easily ordered. Therefore the printed version of the book was edited to exclude the photographs. This particular book in its printed form is now being presented to the readers without the photographs while retaining the complete narrative of the earlier version of the book. In order to distinguish it from the earlier book this present book is being published under a new title, "Scandinavia, Russia: A Travelogue".

Encouraged by the response to the first volume of "Classic Management Games, Exercises, Energizers and Icebreakers", authors Shyam Bhatawdekar and Dr Kalpana Bhatawdekar were motivated to write its second volume. The first volume contained a large number of games, exercises, energizers and icebreakers. The second volume contained many more.The two volumes of "Classic Management Games, Exercises, Energizers and Icebreakers" proved to be highly useful to all the management and business professionals, consultants, trainers, coaches, educationists, faculty members, teachers, event coordinators and students. The large number of management games, exercises, energizers and icebreakers contained in the two volumes could be gainfully used in the seminars and workshops on divergent topics.Soon a need was felt to extract out from the two above-mentioned volumes the games, exercises, energizers and icebreakers that would be apt for seminars and workshops on "team building" and "teamwork", and consolidate them in a book form. The new book should contain only those management games, exercises, energizers and icebreakers that would bring out the concepts, techniques, processes, systems and benefits of teamwork and team building. So the book titled "Classic Team Building Games, Exercises, Energizers and Icebreakers" was conceived and published.Lately yet another need has been strongly felt to consolidate all the above-mentioned three books into a single book. Accordingly all the management games, exercises, energizers and icebreakers have now been assembled in the present book. Some more have been added making them a total of 101 in numbers. Therefore the book is aptly titled as "101 Classic Management Games, Exercises, Energizers and Icebreakers". With the publication of this book many of the readers can do with just one single book.The authors Shyam Bhatawdekar and Dr Kalpana Bhatawdekar are multifaceted personalities. They are top-notch business executives, highly sought after business consultants, eminent management gurus, prolific authors, presenters par excellence and great human beings.
