What shall we discuss about today?" "Let's discuss about politics. We need a fault-ridden topic to mirror our bad grammar." You don't "discuss about" something; you just discuss things. The word "discuss" means to "talk about". There is no reason to insert the word "about" after "discuss." That would be like saying "talk about."

In my R&D of entrepreneurs from around the world, including 1000+ from India, I am very clear that when an entrepreneur starts to do something on his or her own, he has no idea where he or she will end up! But secretly he or she has dreams. He or she has to listen to her own mental drum beats.

Become MBWA Manager - Management By Walking Around. - 0 views

I was fortunate to do my MBA in USA in five years, including three years of work experience. I learnt more by walking around, wondering around and observing around. What I learnt in MBA, it is taught in India equally well if not better. I would strongly suggest, we learn a lot, if our mental antenna is up, when we visit our customers, vendors, associates with an attitude as to what I can learn and not with an attitude that our business is different. Try! After doing that you can add MBWA after your name!
