Reflections from my speaking engagements in Jan 2020

I love public speaking. And every month I share a summary of my experiences. With no specific purpose but to share the joy that I experience when addressing a crowd.

Here are my experiences from my Jan 2020 speaking engagements

Schindler India

Spent time with the sales org. Met Ashok and through him realized yet again: Culture eats strategy for breakfast. 

What a team! What a leader!

Reach Out (Sr. Women leaders from Amex, Microsoft, PwC, PepsiCo, Reckitt, Tata)

Spoke on the importance of owning your story. Realized women do not have different professional needs. It's us men who see those needs differently.

Plaksha Fellowship

Interacted with the fellows on the concept of product-market fit. Realized students today are far more aware, but that doesn't make them far more experienced. 

Deloitte University Relations

Spoke to 40 heads of Delhi educational institutions. Realized how powerful their impact can be, once they change. 

Shree Cement Raipur Plant

Addressed the senior mgmt of this well-oiled plant. Realized the power of humility, when 50-60yr olds say "I do not know everything. Show me"

Intel India

Spent time with the Sales/Mktg team. Realized what it takes for a large company to say "don't get comfortable"

Shree Cement Kodla Plant

Addressed the sr. mgmt of their newest plant. Realized the difference between efficiency through systems and efficiency through people!

I remain a student, of life!
