to combine these three forces in an industry which keeps

withstand the winds of change. The encouragement provided to build a highly skilled, creative research and

development team which is reinforced by state-of-the-art infrastructure and our well-recognised market

presence with a strong product portfolio being marked up with newer brands.

The success and eminence of JBM Group depends on its zeal to reach the pinnacle of growth and success based

on its hard work and dependable work force. So let us stride together to accomplish our dreams and goals to

Employees who take part in the various activities of an organisation deliver the best results because it not only helps them in their personal growth but also pushes them to emerge out as a team player. It is also evident that recognition of an individual's effort increases their work potential. Here HR plays a very important role in developing new and innovative employment engagement activities. One such measure to recognise and appreciate the employees was carried out in JBMAS. JBMAS, MM Nagar as a part of its employee motivation programme, recently recognised some of its best employees from each department, based on the input of their immediate supervisor. This basically showcases the difference between a better performing employee and the rest, triggering a drive to reach for the best.Often the larger pie does not go to the people who are off the roll, here a point was made that better performers are always recognised JBMAS made sure that each and everyone is brought under this criteria. A total of 15 employees on the roll and 15 off the roll were recognised.To measure the best performer, regular day to day monitoring of each employees performance is required up to the operational level. Employee engagement is a sustained effort and the results can only be seen in the long run.

EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT ACTIVITYRECOGNISING THE BEST

The true meaning of vision is to see those things which are not visible through our eyes. Similarly to make the above

statement a reality, it is important that the visions of the

employees are kept in the right condition. JBMAS (BG-6) at MM th stNagar, organised an eye camp on 30 and 31 of May, 2012 with the

support of Dr. Aggarwal Hospital, Chennai.A team of doctors from Dr Aggarwal Hospital headed by Dr

Gopinath conducted eye testing of more than 150 employees

belonging to various age groups. This act was well received by the

employees as they were getting health care support under one

roof. This is one of the employee engagement activity conducted

by Plant's HR department to unleash in time for retaining the best

talents for the organisation.

JBMAS (BG-6) celebrated Kaizen month to give a thrust to continuous improvement process at every activity of the plant in June 2012. The plant head Kalyanaraman inaugurated this event in the presence of customer team AL Nissan and Ashok Leyland also emphasised the importance of Kaizen and directed various ways in which employees can contribute to the same. JBMAS - MM Nagar Plant which is supporting Ford India and Daimler also launched Kaizan month along with BG-6. Plant Head Nandagopal, started the event with a training session on lean manufacturing with a hand tool kit to show how simple it can be to start contributing for the Kaizen.While JBMAS - ORG, Plant Head Gowrishankar launched the event with a difference by presenting a presentation , explaining what is Kaizen, how everyone can participate in it and be part of the organisational growth.

KAIZEN MONTH CELEBRATION AT BG 6

ACHIEVED ANOTHER MILESTONE

May, 2012 saw a new milestone being laid at the JBMAS ORG located at Renault Nissan Supplier Park. This plant, less

than a year old had made this thing possible through its sheer level of hard work and dedication as Nissan had

produced 15,930 vehicles in May, 2012 and were operating with two production lines to achieve this number.

While talking about this achievement, the Plant Head – Gowri Shankar , VP – Operations said “In the last week of the

month, Nissan had started producing at 850 vehicles/day and we also responded to their challenge and delivered to

them with all our workforce and dedication. Except for one part ( 75,174) which was going hand to mouth, we were able

JBMAS ORG

to coordinate well along with the supply chain and maintain one

shift to one day inventory at our FG and customer end . We were

delivering almost one day ahead of their daily schedule. Nissan

is planning to do 19,968 vehicles in the month of June (10,444 of

Micra, 7,882 of Sunny and rest others)”.

This opportunity in May 12, 2012 from the customer's side, made JBMAS surpass all its daily sales and monthly sales

figures. JBMAS created a new sales record by beating its own previous record on this particular day. In addition to that,

customer PPM level of 38 was also achieved. This was possible only through excellent team work and the

understanding between the members of JBMAS. The BG Head, Pramod Manglik has also recommended the team work

and congratulated all for achieving this milestone. The plant head on this achievement expressed his feelings by saying

“Together we all win, and it is true indeed”.

DOING IT ONCE IS ORDINARY, DOING IT AGAIN IS

DIFFERENT. JBMAS has done it again this time with 107

units of blood, to save 107 lives at the least.

The second blood donation camp was organised on June

04, 2012 at MM Nagar Plant with the support of Lions Club

Elite. The response was equally good this time as more and

more enthusiastic participants came forward to be a part of

this noble cause.

The learning centre was converted in to make space for 9

Bed Blood Collection Centre, which was well organised to

ensure smooth conduct of the whole event. All the donors

were gifted a key chain, donor certificate and a plum cake.

Also a small message campaign was organised during this

occassion; one line in Tamil that stood apart from the others

was shared by Ramaswamy of the tubular section.

By organising the campaign again, JBMAS has made it a

point that they are always ready to take initiative towards

social cause.

"Donate food as far as possible;Donate blood as long as you live and

Donate organ after your death."

Once upon a time there lived a farmer and his wife. They had a new born son. The farmer's wife wanted to have a pet animal to protect the child which would also be a companion to the child. They debated and decided upon a mongoose. So they brought a mongoose and started rearing it.

A couple of months later, one day the farmer and his wife wanted to go out of the house leaving the child at home. The farmer thought that the mongoose would take care of the child while they were away. So they left the mongoose and the child at home and went out.

The farmer's wife returned earlier and on returning home found that the mouth of the mongoose was stained with blood and she immediately inferred that the mongoose have killed the child. In anger she threw a box on the mongoose and the mongoose was hurt badly. She then rushed inside to see what happened to the child. She was surprised to find a dead snake lying in the room. She could infer that that the mongoose had saved the child's life by killing the snake. Realising the mistake she went out of the room only to find the mongoose dead on the floor. She cried out load at her hasty action.

Moral: Don't act in haste.

DON'T ACT IN HASTE

THE ART OF NURTURING RELATIONSHIPSBusiness is about relationships. To be successful in your professional life, nurturing relationships is critical - they promote productivity, improve speed of doing business, create referral networks and are much cheaper than any marketing tool. Time spent on building relationships is an investment, with great ROI! To build relationships, follow these tips:

Prioritise: Focus on developing skills that build long-term bonds, e.g. displaying professionalism, respecting other's time, remaining calm and displaying maturity in all your interactions. Cleary, being personable is a career skill - people will always enjoy talking to you.

Invest time: Spend time understanding people, their business, its challenges and their personal stories, making it easier to build lasting bonds.

Honesty and Ethics: If you've promised something, deliver on it and if unable to do so, confess ahead of the deadline. Secondly, always provide factual information regardless of how bleak it appears. While people may get upset, they'll respect your honesty, building lasting trust.

Listen: Lend them your ears and learn about their interests/needs. Listening offers you quick insights into what motivates them and helps you connect better.

Create win-win: Keep communication channels open and clear the air quickly, in case of a conflict. Also, take the initiative to connect with people who have diverse interests and generously link them with others in your network.

Keep in touch: Frequently meet with the important people in your network to show that you value them. Use technology to stay connected, e.g. an occasional email link to an interesting article or a quick phone call to inquire about their well being shows you care. Nurturing relationships is a lot like farming. Like plants, relationships too need investment of time, energy, resources and plenty of care to finally bear fruit.

DRIVE-ORGANISATION TRANSFORMATION PROGRAMME

Organisation Transformation Programme

Life is like a game and an individual has to play with work, family, health, friends and spirit. Work is like a rubber ball.

If dropped it, will bounce back but the other four aspects family, health, friends and spirit are made of glass.

Assuming one of these are dropped they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered.

They will never be the same. One must understand that and strive for balance in life.

Industries have realised the importance of the above. Organisations are setting up policies for maintaining a work

life balance. They are going in for innovative methods to keep their employees happy and satisfied, as it makes office

a better place to work and also positively impact productivity. The concept of work-life balance (WLB) is not new but

with the changing pace of life and increase in stress levels, negatively affecting the quality of work, has made many

organisations think about the strategies for maintaining a work life balance.

There is a strong link between work life balance policies and reduced absenteeism, increased productivity and job

satisfaction. Other benefits include improved recruitment and retention rates with associated cost savings, a

reduction stress, greater levels of job satisfaction and loyalty and an improved corporate image.

The work life balance strategy offers a variety of ways to reduce stress levels and increase job satisfaction of the

employees. The fundamental principle of designing activities around the topic of work life balance is that work

should be part of life.

Employees tend to feel motivated when they feel that the organisation is putting extra effort in providing a healthy

balance between work and life. Motivated employees not only enhance the productivity but also help creating a

positive work environment at office.

Work life balance is a choice an individual has to make. However, it is the organisation that needs to take an initiative

to help the employees. Today, an employee is not looking at their employer as just a job provider but they want the

company to care for their work life balance and their well being. If a company addresses these needs, in addition to

providing great career opportunities, they can be very successful in providing job satisfaction to the employee.

Companies are adopting new means to ensure that their employees get enough time to enjoy their personal life and

spend time with family.

Firms are going for innovative practices to keep their employees happy. Even a business solution providing

company, promotes ROWE (Results Only Work Environment) culture within the organisation, negating the age old

dogma that equates physical presence with productivity and encouraging people to focus on working smarter rather

than longer. Another attempt by the company to manage work-life balance is to encourage all employees to take a

minimum of seven days annual leave in a year. It is the responsibility of the reporting managers or supervisors to

ensure that the employees reporting to them take this leave.

Some organisations have taken initiatives to provide timely assistance to the employees in a crisis situation rising

out of financial or personal problems. They also evaluate the results of these initiatives to ensure that all these

initiatives have the desired impact.

WORK LIFE BALANCE

Every human being wants peace and happiness in his life, even after gaining ample amount of money, if an

individual's health is not at its optimum level, he is not able to experience happiness and peace in his life.

At present time, the biggest myth that many individuals believe in, is that, medicines and doctors can keep a person

healthy but the truth is that, the health of an individual depends a large part on his own hands and his lifestyle.

Following are the 10 golden rules which will help you to lead a healthy life-physically, mentally and socially.

Rule: 1- Keeps your body and environment clean:

Optimum health depends on a healthy body and a clean environment. Bathe regularly, wash your hands properly

before having your food, drink clean water, wear clean clothes, brush your teeth before going to bed. Your vicinity

should have proper access to clean air and sunlight. Wash eyes regularly with clean water and keep your digestive

system healthy.

Rule: 2- Balanced and vegetarian diet:

Adapt to yourself to a vegetarian diet, non- vegetarianism leads to a number of deadly disease and increases the

amount of cholesterol and uric acid in an individual's body.

The food that we eat, and the mind set of an individual who cooks it, affects our health in a large way. For example if an

individual who is frustrated or angry cooks your food, then surely it will affect the food that he is cooking and

ultimately your health on the other hand, food which is cooked with love and affection will improve your health in a

possible manner.

Rule: 3- Proper and complete sleep:

After a long day of hard work, proper amount of sleep is very much essential. So take ample amount of sleep which

should last for at least 7 to 8 hours.

Rule: 4- Exercise regularly:

Every individual should exercise his body for 30 minutes a day, otherwise your body starts accumulating fat, which

ultimately leads to the clotting of blood in your heart, thus diminishing your mental ability.

Rule: 5- Get rid of your addictions:

A lot of individual's smoke, chew tobacco or drink to get rid of tension, but this harmful substance can only relieve you

from your tension for a very short period of time and pertains a long harm to mental and physical health, thus

decreasing your social status. Addiction leads to a no. of disease like, acidity, ulcer, heart problem and mental illness

and ultimately paralyzing an individual for the rest of his life.

Rule: 6-Mental peace:

Mental health and social health along with physical health held's utmost importance in individual's life. Peace plays

an important role in an individual's life and if an individual's mind is not peaceful, it may lead to a no. of diseases like

diabetes, blood pressure, acidity, ulcer, skin diseases etc. So, mental relaxation should be given highest priority.

Rule: 7- Tension free lifestyle:

At present mental tension is one of the major reasons behind a number of diseases. An individual who gets rid of his

tension is truly a person who is happy and thus leads a peaceful life.

Rule: 8- Positive thinking:

The mental status of our mind depend a large part on our thought process. Fear and jealousy, leads to pessimistic

thinking which ultimately leads to tension. On the other hand, hope, truth and affection leads to positive thinking

which ultimately improves our health.

Rule: 9- Balanced personality:

Our mental status, inter- relationship, work potential etc. is directly correlated to our personality, which ultimately

affects our health. Individuals who are shy, speak less or have a reserve personality are mostly afferent and the exact

of opposite of afferent people are versatile and like meeting different people and interacting with them. These are

kind of people who out perform in every aspect of their life and find success.

It would be wrong to say that an afferent person is less successful or a versatile person is more successful, it is just that

your personality affects your health a lot, thus a balanced personality is of utmost importance.

Rule 10- Faith in God and advice from your doctor:

Every individual should meditate at least for 5-10 minutes regularly and should have faith in God, this helps in

imbibing peace and positive energy in an individual. To get rid of stress an individual should take the help of yoga,

exercise, meditation. If deadly diseases are diagnosed at an early stage they can be treated easily.

QUOTES

5S is the name of a workplace organisation method that uses a list of five Japanese words: seiri, seiton, seiso, seiketsu,

and shitsuke. Transliterated or translated into English, they all start with the letter 'S'. The list describes how to organise

a work space for efficiency and effectiveness by identifying and storing the

items used, maintaining the area and items, and sustaining the new order.

The decision-making process usually comes from a dialogue about

standardisation, which builds understanding among employees of how they

should do the work.

Going along the same line, JBMAS, Chennai Plant; came out with an idea to

synchronise their 4S for improvement, with 5S for quicker adaptation and thhence came the concept of the 5 E, emulating excellence as well as working

on towards achieving excellence in Manufacturing. The concept of 5E is quite

along the same line with 5S. I.e. 4S will make one achieve 5S similarly

achieving 4E will make one achieve 5E. The process of following 5E was

meticulously planned by management, as selling this idea was not easy.

A pledge was made in JBMAS, Chennai plant to be followed in every shift production and other meetings making it a

commitment to be followed.

A Father was reading a magazine and his little daughter every now and then distracted him. In order to keep her busy, he tore one page with world map printed on it. He tore it into pieces and asked her to go to her room and put them together to make the map again.He was sure she would take the whole day to get it done. But the little one came back within minutes with perfect map. When he asked how she could do it so quickly, she said, "Oh... Dad, there is a man's face on the other side of the paper, I made the face perfect to get the map right." And she ran outside to play leaving the father surprised.Moral:There is always the other side to whatever you experience in this world. Whenever we come across a challenge or a puzzling situation, look at the other side, you will be surprised to see an easy way to tackle the problem.

th stANS, Faridabad celebrated its 5 Foundation day on 21 August, 2012. Ashish Agarwal (CEO, ANS), Keiji Minami

(Technical Advisor, ANS), Vinod Tolambia (Finance and HR Head) were present during this occasion. A Hawan ceremony

was also organised to mark this auspicious day.

ANS FOUNDATION DAY PROCESS AUTOMATION IN CAE PROCESSES

WORKING TOWARDS A GREENER ENVIRONMENT

'Go Green, Think Green, Act Green' - Taking this thought forward, BG-2 unit and ANS, Faridabad celebrated world th Environment Day on 5 June, 2012. A day for everyone to show that they care for the planet.

On this day, employees actively participated in tree plantation programme by making earth a better place to live in.

Process automation is one of the most widely used terms in manufacturing industry but as the needs of industry changes processes like CAE/CAD etc are being automated to meet the requirements of present times. One of the most time consuming task in CAE is Finite Element modeling and FE modeling itself which takes 70-80% time of the whole task. But with the help of automate standardising process the total time consumed is estimated to come down by 30%.The process automation or customisations of CAE processes are applicable with lot of assumptions, limitations and standardisation of the work flow. It may not reflect on each and every case. Making a macro and using it, will not only help in the long term but the Process Template/Custom approach can help in completing task. A bunch of macros linked together will minimise the scope of any error as well human intervention.The automated tool is more efficient for less featured and simplified geometries because FE Tools are not very efficient in geometrical editing. The tool is most efficient when the problem is well defined and standardised before applying to Process Automated Tool.For creating the process automation tools, CAE Engineer need to understand the theories, practical's as well as finite element software core language like Hypermesh and Tel TK. This process of work is given below:

Define problem.Standardise process/approach.Create algorithms as per the standardize process/approach for task.Convert the algorithms into macros.Link macros to each other as well as to the GUI are for the user's use.Test the approach by applies for the problem as well as compares with the manual operations results.

SURRENDER ON SUMMONSI have a broom stick made out of the quills of virtue One for cleaning self and another one for home

It was an afternoon of SeptemberI was on the street near to my home To clean the dead leaves spilled over there Where I saw an aged person with his long snow like beardSitting on the other side Under the shadow of huge Banyan tree

Stranger: Beggar? Saint? or Intellect? Murmuring or chanting or praising the Lord I started cleaning my side

In the evening I was free from work and meditating Someone knocked the door I said “welcome”

A stranger entered in the room with weapon And he told me in chilling voice “get ready to go” I realised he is an extremist 'Who care your nonsense', I thoughtI took my broomstick slowly and said quietly

“Please leave this room for ever” He triggered the gun three times Suddenly a bright light flashed in the roomAnd he vanished

It was another beginning of birth cycle

Accountability is one of the key aspect when we take into consideration an employee who is part of a team. By creating accountability in workplace, an employee is encouraged to take responsibility for the completion of their duties and overall job performance. One way to create this trait among employees is to engage them in team building exercises focused on exploring and developing their skills.

th thA training session named 'building accountability through team work' was organised by JBMA, on 25 and 28 of June, 2012 at Gr. Noida and Faridabad respectively. Various team building exercises were conducted during the workshop to build a sense of accountability among the employees.

Organisational objective can be achieved when employees efficiency and productivity is achieved. For this, a stress thfree environment is necessary. BG-2 has initiated an activity named fun @ work on 18 August, 2012. Various games,

creative activities were carried out to imbibe a sense a of team spirit among the employees while motivating them at the same time.

10 WAYS TO COMMUNICATE BETTER AT WORK

1. Listen:

Most of us are terrible listeners. Instead of truly listening to what the

person is saying, we interrupt, prepare our response, or think we already

know what the speaker is going to say next. It's impossible to understand

what someone needs or wants if we don't give them our undivided

attention.

2. Pay attention to body language:

Body language can tell you just as much as what a person says, if not more.

Observe how they act when they talk.

3. Consider communication preference:

Not everyone likes to communicate the same way. Email works for some,

but others would rather pick up the phone and talk, text or even use social

media or instant messaging to relay something. Respect the person you're

trying to contact and use the method he or she seems to prefer.

4. Consider your tone:

The problem with email and social media is that it can be difficult to

determine the tone. You may mean something as a joke, but if it comes off

pushy or angry, you could cause an unintended reaction from the

recipient.

Make sure your language is clear and if you are angry, take a few minutes

to cool down before you type. Better yet, meet in person so nothing is

misconstrued.

5. Don't be too casual:

Getting along with your work colleagues can help you do your job better,

but don't take it too far in your communication on the job. Keep the

cursing for after hours, and make sure your emails, meetings, and phone

calls are professional. Being too casual on the job may make others feel

uncomfortable

6. Check your grammar:

Spell check is your best friend on the job. Always proof read anything you

type--be it an email, Tweet or letter. If you're not great at catching errors,

ask someone else to proof it for you.

7. Keep criticism constructive:

If you manage others, you want them to do their best. Work to ensure your

comments aren't emotionally charged, and that the person you're

speaking with grasps what you're trying to say when giving feedback.

Provide positive reinforcement when a job is well-done and find ways to

add in tips for improvement without being that boss.

8. Restate what you hear:

Rephrasing what your co-worker or boss says to you by repeating the

important points shows you are understanding what is being told to you.

It gives both parties a chance to clarify if there is any confusion and by

repeating it, you'll remember.

9. Get a little personal:

People let their guards down when you talk about their lives outside of

work. Ask about a co-worker's kid's soccer tournament. Find ways to

interact on a personal level without going too far. You'll go a long way

toward building trust.

10. Never stop improving:

Effective communication is a skill you must practice. Observe how others

respond to your communication to clue you in on areas for improvement.

Communication is arguably one of the most important business skills, In spite of that many of us haven't been

trained in how to communicate with co-workers and clients. Here are some tips to help you become a better

communicator:

JBMAS ORG

BLANKING LINE COMMISSIONED

ANGER - “THE HUMAN SUICIDE BOMB!”

JBMAS has completed a Blanking Line after the one in Gurgaon, which supports the Group companies in the northern

belt. New line at JBMAS-ORG, Chennai will start its operations in October / November, 2013 catering the requirements

of South.

This fully automated blanking line is a state of the art technology, imported from South Korea with integration of ISGEC

Pressing Machine which will support all the southern plants with cut to length blanks.

A Pooja was organised on the inauguration ceremony of the blanking line at the JBMAS-ORG Facility on 31st August,

2012 in the presence of BG 6 Head, Pramod Manglik, ORG Head - CG Gowri Shankar, Plant Head MM Nagar - M

Nandagopal along with others.

By addition of this blanking line, it is expected that the turnover will improve pertaining to Nissan operations moving

in to the third year in 2012 - 13. This is an indication of well poised growth and efficacy.

This overall growth of JBMAS ORG has only been possible because of the additional growth opportunities provided by

Nissan.

Do you get angry often in your life that makes you lose focus on what is right and wrong? Is there been a time that you

failed to see reason because you were very angry at something or someone? Do you scream at your spouse / children /

friends / subordinates when you are angry?

Unfortunately this deadly virus in us harm us badly - with stress, high blood pressure, relationship getting spoiled, at

times even getting isolated among friends, colleagues & family. Anger makes us to forget who we are, what we are, to

whom we are talking and why we are talking. Interestingly once we take out our anger by way of screaming at someone,

most of us regret.

"Speaking when angry" is one of the bad habit which holds us back from success says, Marshall Goldsmith in his

bestseller book, " What Got You Here Won't Get You There ". Anger has its value as a management tool. But this

emotional volatility is not the most reliable leadership tool. When we get angry, we are usually out of control. It's hard

to lead people when we have lost control. We may think we have a handle on our temper, that we can use our

spontaneous rages to manipulate and motivate people. But it's very hard to predict how people will react to our anger.

Paul Deeds of Crystal Concepts suggests when the anger runs through our blood streams, try doing the following:

1) Calm Ourselves: Take a deep breath, picture a relaxing scene we like and tell ourselves, relax and take it easy.

2) Think twice before we say anything: When angry, it is easy to start cursing or saying wild things to our target. Pause a

while and think is it worth picking up this fight. Is it better to be silent?

3) Take a small walk: Walking makes our brain to release endorphins which gives a sense of well being and makes us

relax.

4) Work with people who made us angry: Do this when we are calm to make sure that the person or people who have

angered us will also be calm. This way, we will all be able to focus on the problems at hand.

5) Don't hold grudges: Be forgiving to the people who have angered us. This is a great way to show them that we are not

angry anymore. But don't think that the other people will follow our example. It is unrealistic to think that all people

should behave the same way like us.

6) Make an "Anger Log Book": Write down all situations that set us off in an "anger logbook". This keeps track of our

reactions to everyday situations. This is a very useful tool in keeping our anger in check as we can review the situation

and try to solve it on a latter date.

So next time when you start to speak out of anger, better you look in the mirror. In every case you will find that the root

of your rage is not "out there" but "in here". You are no more a human bomb who carries anger- the deadly weapon

which is the biggest obstacle to our personal and professional success.
