Many may not know about the secret of how male-female ratio is determined in the world of crocodiles. The truth is that when crocodile lay its eggs, the eggs are neither differentiated as male nor as female. Only the incubation temperature defines and decides the sex of the baby crocodiles that hatch out of the eggs.

The experimental studies have proven that the incubation temperature of the eggs only determines the sex. Depending upon the temperature, the entire eggs shift to either female or male crocodiles. Scientifically this phenomenon is called 'TSD' (temperature dependent sex determination).

In a sense, the eggs of crocodiles when laid are extremely open to switch to either of the sex depending on the environment where they are incubated. Is TSD the sign of primitive or advances evolution? Do crocodiles have the wisdom and intelligence to know what sex ratio they require in the given breeding period? Do they take population census and male female ratio in their population? Do they incubate the eggs accordingly to maintain and achieve the desired sex ratio?

Difficult to answers such questions. In the field of evolution, questions are always 'definite' and the answers are relatively 'vague and presumptive'. It is as simple as the job responsibilities and expectations from every employee is more defined than their level of performance or non subjective assessment process.

A most important message the corporate and its HR must learn from the science of TSD. The work style, the behaviour, the attitude, the commitment and the culture reflected by most employees are always in line with the culture and the values of the organization.

The bad or good work ethics of the employees are largely contributed by the corporate and the employees seldom carry such trains or anomalies when they join the corporate. The 'show people', the R&D people who claim to have made innovations and discoveries that are near to winning 'Nobel' prize, people who love to pull the rug from under the feet of others for own survival are true reflections of the deteriorating and deteriorated culture of the corporate and not of the people.

The female or male crocodile that come out of the eggs are more due to the temperature at which they were incubated. Similarly, the 'school' of useless employees is the true byproducts of the HR culture of the corporate.

Unless and until the cause is diagnosed and treated, eliminating the symptoms never offer any health benefits to the corporate. The HR needs to be sensitive not just in securing their job but in securing the overall welfare of the organization and wellbeing of its people.

When compared to MNC's, single man driven corporate suffer a lot from such problems as MNC's believes and follows certain systems whereas in single man guided corporate, the entire power rest in the hands of 'sycophants' and 'yes boss or yours obediently people'.

Every even in nature has a strong management message for the corporate and all they need is only the sensitivity not just to learn but to cognize.
