We at IMT are going through the process of accreditation by AACSB, a premier agency which does that for B schools. This one is for the Ghaziabad campus. And what it does is it forces you to look at all your goals, processes, and outcomes, and also what you do about them.
But my quest is for an accreditation for myself. I think that is a quest for self-discovery. Boring, universal questions like Who am I and What am I Doing on the planet are passe. But What am I, or what should I do for the rest of my time here, and how, can be rather interesting questions to answer. So can I get some volunteers to accredit me? Maybe for a small fee, like a night out with a drink and a movie? Or a barter, that I will do unto them what they will do unto me.
I need answers to just a few Qs.
What am I doing well? Not well?
How do I bring in continuous improvement and Total Quality Management to my life? (the Japs did it in Toyota, I know, but I am talking more important stiuff than a mere automobile here).
How do I measure my Happiness Quotient.
This is a small but important list. Yours might be different.
I think we could (at least I could) benefit from an accreditation agency- or a person.

Take 2 crocins (or any of its sinful siblings) and go to bed. Let me know if you think differently tomorrow.
Should we be putting our answers in public? Guess not!
Thanks, DH, i did better than that. I do think a bit differently everyday, anyway.
Sowmya, please don't! You have my email ID, I presume.
Rule no.1 of this wish. Spouses cannot be the accreditor. Nor can kids! Independent auditors welcome!
