Write the Story of Your Life
"If
someone asks me a question, 'What is it you see when you look out the window
that is visible but not yet seen by others' I will answer, 'I see a world
filled with people with a huge potential lying untapped. If I can identify
their strengths and inspire them to unlock their potential, I feel that I have
made a difference in the world.'" —Professor M.S. Rao
Throughout
my life, I believed in two things―continuous learning and constant feedback.
Having reached 57 years, I decided to take feedback about my life. I wanted to
share it with storytelling. It gives me a sense of satisfaction that I led my
life with purpose and meaning and provided a ray of hope and inspiration to the
next generations. It helps me leave my legacy to the future generations that I
contributed my best despite financial constraints and family challenges and
despite hailing from humble origins with toxic family background.
Examining
my Life
I
have made several mistakes in my life leading to many challenges in life. I was
working hard but I was overconfident that my hard work would lead to success. I
did not realize that distractions and disturbances from the external
environment would ruin my prospects of achieving success. I made the mistake of
believing people blindly. I was cheated by others several times since I trusted
them blindly. Later, I realized that I must be careful in judging the people. I
made the mistake of trusting my family members that they would support me when
I failed in business. Unfortunately, they backed out when I failed in business.
They thought that I would become a liability for them. I never expected that my
siblings would betray me and snatch away the little share of property that I
was supposed to get my parents. Fortunately, my friends from the Indian Air
Force helped me overcome my challenges. I was blessed to join the Indian Air
Force where I got friends with a positive attitude.
Life
taught me several lessons. I planned many things but destiny took me to totally
different paths. As a result, I led a life with diversified experiences
including military, business, teaching, training, consultancy, and writing
background. I learned that life is never a straight line. I still struggle with
financial challenges because I never cared for money. I cared for sharing my
knowledge freely with the world. I cared for grooming one million students as
global leaders by 2030. It landed me in several financial challenges. My continues
writing led me to severe back pain. I overcame it through physiotherapy exercises
and discipline.
To
conclude, examine your life, share your strengths and weaknesses, unveil your
failures and successes with integrity to enable your next generations to learn lessons
from your life to evolve as better citizens and excel as better leaders. Life
is great.
"The
good leaders do the best thing in the prevailing situation whereas the great
leaders do the right thing in any situation irrespective of the effects and
outcomes." ―Professor M.S. Rao

How Do Leaders Drive Responsible Industry Transformation?
"In
today's era of volatility, there is no other way but to re-invent. The only
sustainable advantage you can have over others is agility, that's it. Because
nothing else is sustainable, everything else you create, somebody else will
replicate." ―Jeff Bezo, CEO and President, Amazon
Transformation
means different things to different individuals, industries, and organizations.
Leaders must dream and think big to drive industry transformation effectively
especially in the post-coronavirus world. Additionally, exponential thinking is
essential for leaders to lead in today's exponentially disrupted business
environment. Transformation involves strategic thinking, strategic decisions,
and above all, reinventing as per the changing times and technologies.
Driving a responsible industry transformation
involves the usage of innovative business models and digital tools and
technologies to improve the products and services to add value to customers and
clients. It helps adapt organizations in a rapidly changing world and improving
the organizational bottom lines. In a nutshell, it adds value for customers, engages
employees effectively, and increases profits for shareholders.
Leaders must impart training programs to their
employees regularly to upgrade skills, knowledge, and abilities to drive
organizational transformation effectively. They must prepare their organizations
for disruption and innovate constantly and embrace change effectively. They
must accept volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA).
"At least 40% of all businesses will die in the
next 10 years… If they don't figure out how to change their entire company to
accommodate new technologies." — John Chambers, Cisco System
