The Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia today unveiled its first two dual SIM phones in India â€" C1 and C2. These two devices are from the Nokia C-series range.

As reported earlier by Telecom Yatra, the Nokia C1 (C1-00) will be launched globally by mid-September and the Nokia C2 (C2-00) will be launched later this year.

On being asked why Nokia entered the dual SIM segment so late, D Shivkumar, managing director, Nokia India, said, "The dual SIM market in India took off only in the last one year, mainly due to the tariff war amongst telecom operators. These phones have been in the market from the last 5 years, but they never picked up so fast. Right now the segment is significant and we feel that it is the right time to enter this market.�

Nokia C1 will be available at Rs 1999 and a user can use it only for voice and SMS. It comes with a standby battery time of up to six weeks, the longest ever for a Nokia phone.

Nokia C2 will be priced around Rs 2500 and will comes with services such as Ovi Life Tools and Ovi Mail. It also has a music player and supports micro-SD cards of up to 32 GB.

Helping an Employee Who’s Struggling with Postpartum Depression

By
Going back to work is tough for any new parent, but the transition is especially difficult for those suffering from postpartum depression. (Remember, postpartum depression affects both women and men.) If you manage someone who has recently had a baby, pay close attention to how they’re doing — a parent’s struggle doesn’t always show on the outside. Some people may overcompensate by working too hard, while others may show a loss of enthusiasm. Familiarize yourself with the services your firm offers — which may include groups for working parents, health care coverage for counseling, or post-natal yoga or meditation classes — so that you can help your employee access support. Offer options such as flex time, telecommuting, gradual return, or peer mentoring. In fact, it’s a good idea to offer these things to all team members so that the new parent doesn’t feel singled out. Find ways to make supporting employees and their mental health part of your culture. Adapted from " What Managers...

If Your Team Is Overwhelmed, What Can They Stop Doing?

By
Project overload is real. But as a leader, it can be hard to tell whether your team needs more resources or just could be working more efficiently. Start by asking people to identify their key activities and how much time they spend on them in a typical week. Use that data to assess workloads and priorities. Consider which tasks the team could stop doing and which might benefit from having their process rethought. Pay special attention to low-value projects that have to get done but that take up an inordinate amount of time. Are there ways to simplify the workflows to reduce the amount of time your team spends in these areas? And last but not least, look for tasks that simply can be done more quickly. If your team is still struggling after these steps, it might be time to hire more people. Adapted from “What to Do If Your Team Is Too Busy to Take On New Work,” by Dutta Satadip
