CAT 2016 candidates have been instructed to not wear shoes and or any closed footwear during the exam. The exam which is a pre-requisite for admission to some 20 Indian Institutes of Managements across the country, besides a host of other management institutes, has issued a set of stringent instructions which are being criticised by students. <br />
<br />
If any candidate is found wearing shoes, they will be asked to leave the footwear along with their socks outside the exam hall, as per new rules.<br />
<br />
Students on Quora threads are joking around these announcements, saying they feel it's the weirdest set of rules students have ever been asked to follow.<br />
<br />
Another announcement that has caught attention is - Candidates with Mehendi laden hands or carrying any other 'cosmetic colours' will not be permitted to take the test. They would not be allowed to digitally scan their fingerprints. The official notification has warned candidates from applying henna at least 5 days prior to the exam.<br />
<br />
With two days left to go for one of India's toughest examinations, here's the full list of instructions. Do take a look and spare yourself from any surprises at the exam center:<br />
<br />
1. You need to reach the test centre by 7:30 a.m. for forenoon session or by 1:00 p.m. for the afternoon session.<br />
2. Candidates reaching late (after 8:45 a.m. for forenoon / 2:15 p.m. for afternoon sessions) WILL NOT be permitted inside the test centre.<br />
3. Only Admit Card and original Photo ID proof will be permitted inside the test hall.<br />
4. Applicants who have opted for using a scribe MUST also carry the duly filled Scribe Affidavit (available on the CAT website) along with the Photo ID proof (original plus a copy) of the scribe.<br />
5. Your Admit Card (plus scribe affidavit if applicable) will be collected by the test invigilator and WILL NOT be returned to you. These will be retained by the invigilator.<br />
6. Any kind of watch, mobile phones, earphones, microphones, pager, health band or any other electronic gadgets, any printed/blank/hand written paper, pencil box, pouch, calculator etc., are NOT allowed inside the test center.<br />
9. Candidates wearing shoes or any other closed footwear WILL have to leave the footwear (including socks) outside the exam hall. You can wear open footwear like chappals, sandals etc.<br />
10. On the day of the test, your digital fingerprint scan will be captured. Candidates whose fingerprints cannot be digitally scanned due to reasons like applying Mehendi / henna / any cosmetic colours etc., will not be permitted to take the test. It is strongly recommended that you avoid applying Mehendi on your hands (palm side) for at least 5 days prior to the test.<br />
<br /> <keyword id="1288067" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="CAT-exams">CAT exams</keyword> are slated for December 4. The duration of the exam will be 180-minutes and there will be three Sections, namely Quantitative Aptitude, Data Interpretation and Verbal Ability. <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/A-CAT-topper-reveals-how-he-cracked-one-of-Indias-toughest-exams-while-doing-a-full-time-job/articleshow/54808854.cms">For tips to crack the exam, read this. </a>

<keyword id="19968766" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="Neeraj-Chopra" source="keywords">Neeraj Chopra</keyword> is all about greatness without pretensions. A fierce competitor, a superstar of <keyword id="20682485" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Indian-sports" source="keywords">Indian sports</keyword>, and a humble human being who would make no bones about his limitations or desires, the double <keyword id="19922930" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Olympic-medallist" source="keywords">Olympic medallist</keyword> from India, is all rolled into one. <br /><br /> He may want the top prize for himself, but would not be envious if the rival pips him. He would tell himself to accept what he got, and work harder to achieve what he desires. He would not pretend that he does not care for <keyword id="21025703" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="brand-endorsement" source="keywords">brand endorsement</keyword>. He certainly wants it, money matters, but would not compromise on his training for that. <br /><br /> The 17-minute interaction with the Indian media after winning a silver medal in the <keyword id="4833237" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Paris-Olympics" source="Orion">Paris Olympics</keyword> was more than just a routine question-answer session. 'Your first throw was foul then in the second...,' the scribe had not even completed his question before Chopra quipped, "Saari throw fouls hi thi sir sirf doosri hi theek thi (All throws were foul, except the second one)," he said, chuckling, and the 50-strong group joined him in laughter. <br /><br /> It was not a great deal for him to say he fouled five of his six attempts. The long Q and A session was largely in Hindi with Indian and Pakistani journalists asking questions, but when the volunteer requested an answer in English for the benefit of few foreign scribes, Chopra laid bare his simplicity. <br /><br /> "Now I need to motivate myself to speak in English, the way I motivate myself for competition," he said with a smile, as the gathered group burst out in laughter. <br /><br /> 'Can you describe the competition between you and Nadeem, India and Pakistan,' the foreign scribe asked again, requesting the answer in English. <br /><br /> Well, he explained pretty well, effortlessly. <br /><br /> "It was a really great competition. Maybe one of the greatest competitions in history. Arshad threw really well. I was also in good shape. But I don't know. My runway was not that good today," he responded quickly, without having to think much. <br /><br /> It was inevitable that he would be asked about the missed competitions in the 2024 season, leading up to the <keyword id="19916613" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Paris" source="keywords">Paris</keyword> Games. It led to speculations whether he was carrying injury into the Paris Games. He had skipped the Paris <keyword id="74857" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Diamond-League" source="Orion">Diamond League</keyword> in July, just before the Games, though he later clarified that the event was not part of his competition calendar. <br /><br /> He revealed how difficult it becomes for him to say no to the organisers despite fitness concerns. With a wide grin, he said, "Of course I need to play more but then I send those carefully drafted messages that I have suffered a strain and I won't compete. <br /><br /> "In few competitions I have played just for the sake of organisers, so that they don't feel bad. I keep thinking that I have entered the competition and if I don't go, they will say I am making excuses. Personally I love to compete as much as possible. <br /><br /> "I make plans but then you tell your team, 'let's draft a good message, saying sorry for pulling out," he said, laughing, but the pain of missing the event was writ large. <br /><br /> "No happiness is greater than playing. You work hard to compete only. Whatever strength God has given me I do." <br /><br /> Then came a tricky one. He was asked about the pressure of sponsors in the Olympic cycle. How he finds that balance between brand endorsements, obligations and training? Again, he came up with an honest answer. <br /><br /> "I put my game on top priority after Tokyo and after Tokyo Games only I got the opportunity to get associated with brands. It is difficult for us that brands come after you, and if you get it, why will you leave that opportunity. Just do it," he said, with all honesty. <br /><br /> "It also opens the way for kids (next generation), 'nahi to shreer hi tootega khel khel key, last mein kuch nahi rahega." <br /><br /> How many athletes say that so openly? "So I balance it. Priority is sport. This was an Olympic year, so whatever commitments I had, I fulfilled in the first half. <br /><br /> "You have seen I have been training outside since Tokyo." He could be upset inside for not being able to defend his title, but accepted that Thursday was Nadeem's day. <br /><br /> Lastly, volunteers did their best to push him out of the mixed zone, but he would keep coming back either to sign autographs or honour the request for selfies. After all, he knows how to find a balance between different things and saying no is the most difficult thing for him.

Neeraj Chopra: A legendary athlete on field, a superstar without pretension off it

<ul class="summary-list"><li>JT McCormick is the president and CEO of Scribe Media, a publishing company ranked #1 Best Place to Work in Austin by the Austin Business Journal.</li><li>McCormick recalls being promoted to President of a software company and thinking he would never hire himself, now that he was the leader of a company.</li><li>He explains how giving praise in group settings and accepting criticism helped him grow from being a selfish salesperson to a team-focused leader.</li><li><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/?hprecirc-bullet">Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories</a>.</li></ul><p>When I was promoted to President of a software company eight years ago, I walked into my new office and was struck by the realization that this was not just about me anymore - I was now responsible for the livelihoods of hundreds of people. </p><p>This sudden awareness of what it means to be the leader of the company came from a simple question: </p><p><em>As President, would I hire myself?</em></p><p>The answer was a resounding "no."</p><p>I can admit now that up until that day, I had not been a culture fit for the company. In fact, I was downright toxic. My remarkable results as the Executive VP of Sales got me promoted to President, but deep down, I knew I didn't deserve the job. </p><p>Prior to that moment, it had been all about me. I would close deal after deal - even those we shouldn't have taken - chasing sales targets with a complete disregard for the stress it put on our engineers.</p><p>Although I was considered a superstar in the company, I wasn't yet a leader. Not even close.</p><p>We had a solid culture before I became president, but it wasn't anything to write home about. In the years following my promotion, the company was consistently recognized for its culture and started ranking among the top ten best employers in Texas. </p><p>When I left to join a new startup, <a href="https://scribewriting.com/">Scribe Media</a>, the practices that served our team at the software company had a similar result. We were named <a href="https://www.entrepreneur.com/top-company-culture">America's #1 Company Culture</a> by Entrepreneur Magazine, and the <a href="https://www.bizjournals.com/austin/news/2019/06/21/the-best-places-to-work-in-austin-for-2019.html">#1 best small company to work in Austin</a> by the Austin Business Journal. </p><p>Creating a thriving company culture for your team isn't easy, but it is simple. Here are the principles that served me in growing from a selfish salesperson to a team-focused leader.</p><h2><strong>1. Allow everyone to be themselves at work, and support them when they do</strong></h2><p>You know the saying, "It's business, not personal"? I can't stand it. None of us are Batman. I reject the idea that people should have different selves for work and for life.</p><p>The average person will spend 90,000 hours at work over a lifetime. Work should be a harmonious part of life, so instead of trying to achieve work-life balance, we strive for total life alignment instead.</p><p>At Scribe, we've created a "Whole Self" Program, which includes everything from monthly mentorship and coaching sessions, to deeply emotional work like doing a One Last Talk, an exercise that helps participants uncover and speak their truth by asking, "If you were to leave this planet tomorrow, what would you say, and who would you say it to?"</p><p>By fostering connection, we've been able to remove the artificial walls separating work life from personal life, to support and accept our people for who they are as a whole. We've helped members of our tribe achieve major personal and professional breakthroughs.</p><h2><strong style="color: #000000;">2. View criticism as the beginning of a conversation, not the end</strong></h2><p>True professionals always try to improve, which can only come from honest and direct feedback. Improvement does not come from mindless praise. </p><p>We see confrontation as good, <em>so long as the idea is being confronted, not the person</em>. People want to feel like their identity is safe - even if their ideas are not. By discussing only the idea ("Idea X is bad, because of reason Y"), and never putting the person down ("You are stupid for having Idea X"), you can create an environment that has people intensely debating and rigorously scrutinizing ideas.</p><p>The best way to work together effectively is to share and combine all of our best ideas, wisdom and knowledge. Create a discussion space where ideas are discussed honestly.</p><h2><strong style="color: #000000;">3. Give praise in group settings</strong></h2><p>I never understood the idea of waiting until someone's funeral to say out loud how wonderful we think they were. If you think highly of someone, wouldn't it be so much better to just tell them in person?</p><p>At Scribe, we run a "Strengths and Obstacles" session once per year, where the entire company celebrates one employee at a time - not just for their work accomplishments, but for all the things that make them special as a person.</p><p>This environment creates a powerful impact on people, many of whom have never heard such direct input on what makes them special, especially from colleagues. I've never missed a single session, and I can say that, without fail, everyone leaves with a deeper self-understanding, more confidence, and stronger bonds than they thought was possible.</p><h2><strong style="color: #000000;">4. Provide in abundance for your employees</strong></h2><p>While workers today jump between jobs an average of <a href="https://www.bls.gov/news.release/tenure.nr0.htm">12 times in their careers</a>, it's our job as servant leaders to build a company that people want to work at until they retire.  </p><p>A big part of that means providing the best benefits that you're able to offer your employees. Don't leave them wondering how they'll take care of themselves or their families if or when they get injured or sick - and that goes beyond insurance.</p><p>Scribe has a one-time emergency fund available for Tribe members who find themselves in a challenging situation. If they are in a pinch, the company will provide them with $1,500 dollars. No questions asked. No repayment required. </p><p>If you want people to thrive in your culture and measure their tenure in decades, not years, it's important to create an environment that provides for team members and helps them grow. In an ideal world, they should always have the option to leave, but should never want to.</p>

I was once a toxic employee but instead of getting fired, my 'remarkable results' got me promoted to president. My new startup has an award-winning company culture - here's how I did it.

<p>A <a href="http://www.nanoscribe.de/">small company</a> in Germany called NanoScribe is marketing a micro 3-D printer that can create really tiny structures called "nanostructures."</p>
<p>The device can print these structures 100 times faster than current technology, the company claims. </p>
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">One important application of the micrometer-size parts is in the electronics industry.</span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.technologyreview.com/contributor/prachi-patel/">Prachi Patel</a> of MIT Technology Review explains how this new 3D-printer will be useful:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">...patterning nanoscale features on chips currently involves slow, expensive techniques. 3-D printing would quickly and cheaply yield polymer templates that could be used to make metallic structures.</p>
<p>Since the U.S. doesn't currently have the infrastructure to manufacture these pieces, much of the production is outsourced. That also poses a problem. Overseas manufacturers may produce counterfeit parts — <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/counterfeit-parts-from-china-raise-grave-concerns-for-both-us-companies-and-national-security-2012-6">parts that look like the real thing but are actually designed to steal information or gain access to a system</a>.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5em;">A recent <keyword id="6354810" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Defense">Defense</keyword> Science Board report for the Pentagon outlines how these exploits could even <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/cyber-exploits-turn-weapons-on-us-2013-3">be used to take over American weaponry</a>.

<p><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5em;"></span><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5em;">From </span><a href="http://www.acq.osd.mil/dsb/reports/ResilientMilitarySystems.CyberThreat.pdf">the report</a><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5em;">:</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Recent DoD and U.S. interest in counterfeit parts has resulted in the identification of widespread introduction of counterfeit parts into DoD systems ... Since many systems use the same processors and those processors are typically built overseas in untrustworthy environments, the challenge to supply chain management in a cyber contested environment is significant.</p>
<p><span><span>A native nano-printer could make U.S. networks more secure. It could even help create "military-grade" drives with "partitioned" pieces of <keyword id="6369904" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="60" keywordseo="hardware">hardware</keyword>, or super strong co-processors to hold less secure network cryptography.</span></span></p>

<p>Hardware is considerably more difficult to exploit than software, <a href="http://www.seas.gwu.edu/~simha/research/HWSecBookChapter12.pdf">experts say</a>, so adding new circuits and processors to American systems would be a big step toward securing its networks.</p>

<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Recent DoD and U.S. interest in counterfeit parts has resulted in the identification of widespread introduction of counterfeit parts into DoD systems ... Since many systems use the same processors and those processors are typically built overseas in untrustworthy environments, the challenge to supply chain management in a cyber contested environment is significant.</p>
<p><span><span>A native nano-printer could make U.S. networks more secure. It could even help create "military-grade" drives with "partitioned" pieces of <keyword id="6369904" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="60" keywordseo="hardware">hardware</keyword>, or super strong co-processors to hold less secure network cryptography.</span></span></p>

<p>Hardware is considerably more difficult to exploit than software, <a href="http://www.seas.gwu.edu/~simha/research/HWSecBookChapter12.pdf">experts say</a>, so adding new circuits and processors to American systems would be a big step toward securing its networks.</p>
