Graduation Day Concert

My son Jai Ganesh has graduated from Apple Tree KinderGarten to join Primary school next year. We attended the school concert and ceremony arranged by them. It's always fun to see children performing in the stage. Jai also gave a opening talk with his fellow classmate before the class choose to opt for "We are the world; we are the children" song.. he also performed in a chinese song and always good to watch your kid performing in the stage.. his performance in "Jai Ho" song during his K1 last year was much appreciated by teachers and other parents.. Will have to upload in "You Tube"..

An important announcement

I am very happy to announce to the world that i have taken up Independent consulting role after working for more than 12  years in Cambridge solutions pte ltd Singapore (Advanced business partner of IBM). It's been a very long journey with the company from the level of programmer to presales consultant / project manager / solution architect  all in one role :) I should say i had enjoyed most of the time but at times you feel tired of going to work especially after very long hours and some week end work. (They are some of the reasons to take up Independent consulting role but doesn't mean IC will need you to work less though the feeling is truly different and it's been some time i have been thinking of Independent consulting)

In any case, i have taken the decision and am going to enjoy the journey and look forward to it.. I am taking up work in my core areas first mostly with IBM Lotus and WebSphere Portal technology projects consulting and Project Management services while am also working with some Business process re-engineering projects etc. But i am very sure i would be evolving a lot in the years to come.

Hence, i have a request to my readers.. If you know of any work related with IBM Lotus technologies, Project Management requirements or BPM / BPR related work please let me know. I live in Singapore and would be willing to travel also. You can hire me on a project basis or for a specific duration. Drop me a note skumar75atgmaildotcom and we can discuss :)

Some changes in the site

I will be making some changes in the coming days and i have started doing some already from changing the theme to removing the blog roll. I just got the feeling it doesn’t make much sense when you list a few gentlemen blogs whereas in reality you tend to see many other blogs. I will be making further changes in the days to come and very soon will write in detail about the reasons : )
