Don’t just wish for it !
Work for it !!!
If wishes were horses, all dreams would run to you! There is no substitute for your effort and work.
Your thoughts ? Inspire me.
Do
Decide
Improve
Success is at the fourth turn !
Let this be your guiding mantra to end January 2026 on a high note !
Your thoughts O Dear One ?
My corporate story book series on LinkedIn.
The Monk & The Umbrella … is a tale which highlights that unnecessary stress and suffering is not to be mistaken for grit and resilience. Being prepared, tactful and mindful is a better skill to reach the same destination.
I spent the evening with the leadership team at Zydus in Delhi — a room full of people who run large teams across the country, make decisions with consequences, and … deliver. Despite the stature and experience in the room, there was an openness to listen, question, and participate with genuine intent.
I left the room with these reflections - and perhaps they are worth asking ourselves too:
1. Where do your teams need to experience your presence more, not just your direction ?
2. Where might stepping closer, without lowering the bar change outcomes?
3. And if leadership were a mirror, would it recognise you everywhere you go ?
Success doesn’t change people.
It removes the consequences of being who they already were.
Your thoughts ?
Complete the sentence …. “Leadership in the New Year will be less about Control and more about ….”
Inspire me 😇
Ah ! About that phone call … when you drift away from the pack on a work call and then stay back to make some more 😅
