Finally Mahindra Lifespaces Developers Limited tried to prove the point that that it is easier to get an audience with their managerial hierarchy than getting an audience with Pope. After CEO nudged someone, people woke up from slumber and a meeting was hastily arranged on 30TH October 2010. The meeting turned out to be Action Replay of earlier meeting with CEO on 30th July 2010.
Action Replay in terms of some more braying and baying, buck passing, false promises, new set of deadlines, same faces from Mahindra Lifespaces Developers Limited except Mr Siddesh Ghoshalkar who quietly left the company for greener pastures.
However, at the end of the meeting there was offer of “Gardan”(neck), if promised deadlines is not met. Only time will tell whether deadline remains intact and Gardan remains proudly up and firmly in place or the project managers will have their gardans down in shame.
