  • The Herd Mentality
    Businessworld The Herd Mentality CORPORATE The Herd Mentality Following the leader in hordes is a natural business instinct. But how many can last the distance? DINESH NARAYANAN Some regular, peak-hour commuters in Mumbai's crowded local trains have a seat-grabbing strategy they call ‘back maro’ (go back). They board trains moving in the opposite direction so that they are assured of seats when the trains turn around. But the number of such commuters has increased so much that many never manage to get a seat. Stephen J. Dubner, co-author of Freakonomics, gives a similar example of his bus travel in New York and says that people may not like being part of a herd, but psychologically they are somehow comforted by it. They succumb to the “herd mentality” and unthinkingly tag along — because if everyone else is doing it, it must be the thing to do. This human psychology is as prominent among Mumbai and New York commuters as it is among businesses. The phenomenon of hordes of people jumping on to the money-making opportunity in vogue is ages old. History of businesses around the world is peppered with such rushes — from the 17th century Dutch tulip mania when practically everyone in the Netherlands left their jobs to grow and trade tulips; the mid-19th century California gold rush, when people from all over the world flocked to the state to prospect for gold; the dotcom boom at the turn of the millennium; to the private equity and hedge fund craze of today.

  • Indigo and Air India-- on Wednesday Announced
    1 Revue de presse février 2020 The only two Indian carriers that fly to China -- IndiGo and Air India-- on Wednesday announced suspension of most of their flights to that country, while India has requested China for permission to operate two flights to bring back its nationals from Hubei province which has been sealed after the deadly coronavirus outbreak. A fresh travel advisory asking people to refrain from travelling to China has been issued by the Union government which has ramped up screening across airports, ports and borders, as the virus spread to at least 17 countries. No case of the novel coronavirus has been detected in India, though hundreds of people remain under observation in many states including as many as 806 in Kerala, according to officials. With several airlines based in Asia, North America and Europe restricting operations to the region, the Indian carriers too followed suit. The country's largest airline IndiGo said it has suspended its flights on Bengaluru-Hong Kong route from February 1 and on the Delhi-Chengdu route from February 1 to 20. Similarly, state-run Air India is suspending its flights on Delhi-Shanghai route from January 31 to February 14 and reducing the frequency on Delhi-Hong Kong route to thrice-weekly only in the same time period. IndiGo will, for now, continue to operate the Kolkata-Guangzhou flight which it is "monitoring on a daily basis". The crew of the two airlines working on flights connecting India with South East Asian countries have been asked to wear N95 masks on ground and take other precautions like not visiting public places.
