BRUSSELS: Europe's unemployment numbers are rising to worrying new records with dire figures from Spain especially underlining a growing north-south divide, official data showed on Tuesday.

The unemployment rate across the troubled eurozone hit 11.8 percent in November, up from 11.7 percent in October, with the number of people out of work in the 17-nation single currency area now nudging 19 million.

The 19th rise in a row for the eurozone, home to some 330 million people, represented an increase of more than two million on the dole compared to a year ago.

MUMBAI: Head honchos of some of the top brokerages have taken salary cuts in line with the decline in net profit amid gloomy stock markets and falling volumes. The smaller pay packets are reflective of their stronger linkages with profitability over the past few years.

The compensation of chairmen and MDs of broking houses and financial services companies such as Geojit BNP Paribas, Edelweiss and Motilal Oswal Securities have fallen 15-68% in FY12 from a year ago. Over the same period, the net profit of these companies has declined between 24% and 45%.

Managing your workday well is a challenge for many with an overdose of information in your day to day life. It gets more difficult to finish numerous tasks within the time period without missing on deadlines when you have only 8-10 hours a day.

Follow discipline

Plan your day ahead. Make a list of to-do things for the coming week. Make a log of events to attend or participate a day ahead. "You will know how much work you will have in hand to manage the next day and prepare accordingly," says Adecco India managing director Sudhakar Balakrishnan.

Prioritise tasks

MUMBAI: A close friend who has worked with him in the past dubs him a 'jugadu' - a local word to describe the attitude of getting the job done any which way. Nothing unusual about that - Indian business is known to thrive with the help of such ingenuity - except that Mr Jugadu in this case is not an Indian but an Englishman who's set for his second professional stint in the country.

Developing an emotional connect with team members is a fundamental part of a manager's role in order to create a work-conducive culture.

Be Yourself

A leader needs to be himself. "The moment people see you in flesh and blood, they are far more willing to accept you with your strength and limitations rather than when you are trying to put a facade of being someone else," says Sandeep Banerjee, MD and CEO of Edenred India.
