For success in research and development we should have an organizational policy of promoting scientific temper among the scientist, openness of communication, tolerance to criticism, team work, collective problem solving and continuous improvement in performance. The organizational practice should be flexible, change with time and promote thinking and creativity. Reward system must be based on critical evaluation of performance and merit and the culture should nurture the feeling that nothing in science and technology is impossible.
