India got a grand success in producing learned workers to a very large extent which can roll a business or project or idea but cannot give a new dimension to it. Nevertheless, somewhat, we have not succeeded in producing experts who can give a pristine dimension to business, project or idea and can drag it to a next level. Still, we wait for the instruction of the foreign experts in taking our steps forward.
It is not because; we have less brain or having some learning incapability. In fact, Indians have great learning capability, due to this, India is dominating the world in the service sector especially IT industry. However, those capabilities have been used to create workforces of great workers, not experts.
And we are not becoming experts in one technology or application or domain, because of the instability of ours in one project or application or domain or technology for a longer time. After this errant jump, we become a jack of all trades, but master of none. We end with becoming a country of great workers, not experts. Masters are respected, revered and worshipped, not Jacks. Jacks are used in supporting the masters. Experts are always handled with respect and value, not workers, no matter, how great and a hard worker you are.
If India is thinking to dominate the world in the area of technology and business, then India needs to create an environment where people must think about becoming the expert what they take in their hand and decide to do in their life. The majority chooses their career, not because they like it rather they do it because they find many possibilities of making more money. You cannot be an expert in something which you do not enjoy doing it. In this case, you would never bother to go further and find new possibilities in your chosen stream.
People need to change their slave mentality of doing any work only for money but think about the passion and happiness in that job.
Developed countries are developed because they emphasize in producing more experts in their country. They issue Visa for their countries for those who are experts in some particular stream. They are experts, it is not because of their mental ability is different than Indians have, it is because - they plan their career very meticulously. They do not choose their career blindly. If they are comfortable with technology, they will do something in that area, if they are comfortable with management, they will proceed and try to do something great in that area only. They do not create unnecessary doubt and confusion in choosing their career. And they give ample amount of time to themselves to the profession they have chosen to acquire the expertise in that. That`s the reason - we can find many experts in less populated developed countries, but hardly we find experts in this populated country.
No way, but we need to create such kind of environment where experts are respected and given value in this country because of the skill and expertise they carry, not merely on the basis of how much money they make from their work.
The Indians must be known for their expertise, not only for the good workers. Foreigners should come to India, not in the mere search for cheaper workers, but for seeking the expert advice. And India has this potential.
