  • Leaders I Admire

    7 Mar 2022

    The MBA journey is simply incomplete without learning the art of leadership. At SOIL, we are exposed to various CXOs, Industry Leaders & Subject matter experts. This is done through many formats and channels but the one I find most exciting is the leadership series, where we students get an opportunity to understand a 360-degree view on how a leader inspires thousands of people with all the learnings and challenges of their life. These industry leaders share their insights and experiences of life with us so that we get a holistic view and identify our own personal strengths to become good future leaders.

    Leaders I Admire

    The main objective of conducting the leadership series in SOIL is to prepare us for our tomorrows. All of us have been blessed with unique gifts to work towards our true purpose. When we work to leverage our gifts towards our purpose, we become inspired leaders. When we enable others to do so, we build inspired leaders and organizations of consequence. Hearing to these speakers, we are often mesmerised and my personal takeaway is usually to grow and achieve great heights, just the way they did in their life.

    One such prominent leaders, who made a deep impact on me was Mr. John Gialouris. He is the Board Member, Pueblo Mechanical & Controls at Huron Capital. He spoke about his extensive senior executive roles in global and domestic industrial and commercial companies with both manufacturing and service organizations. He has led cultural transformations/turnarounds, business model transitions and dramatic growth through innovation and strategic acquisitions. His words were quite enlightening as he gave us a unique perspective of how he looks at things. One of the most interesting thoughts that he shared with us was ‘The most wonderful thing in the world is a compassionate person and the ugliest thing in the world is a closed mind and a closed heart’. He taught us that every organization is a lifeform or a living organism which requires oxygen to be successful and to get this success, we need 3 key elements-

    • Value Creation – It is about how we create a situation where value is developed and expanded
    • Speed – To create said value, we have to be fast as the world is constantly changing
    • Flexibility – It is also important that with the changing world, we have to be flexible and adaptable

    If we, young students can bring the right balance of these 3 key elements in our life, we can simply create magic in our work life as well.

    Another prominent leader who inspired me with his Leadership Series session was Dr Vijay Kelkar. He is a man who not only has clarity of mind but absolute ability to speak the truth. An Indian economist and academic, he is currently the Chairman of the Forum of Federations, Ottawa & India Development Foundation, New Delhi and Chairman of Janwani – a social initiative of the Mahratta Chamber of Commerce, Industries and Agriculture (MCCIA).

    He reminded us that the whole of public policy has two parts to it – one is the science part which requires conversation among the different set of people to come together and enrich the dialog through knowledge sharing so that all are involved and think holistically. This is just the way we collaborate in our group assignments and tasks when we put our individual thoughts and actions together as a whole.

    The second aspect is the art, that is, the whole process of aligning people. There is so much interdependence in the world today, both in public and private sector that to be a good manager, one must be mindful of what are the public issues going on in the world, what is there in the society and how do we create an impact through our mindfulness which is our ability to govern ourselves effectively. When we begin to take responsibilities and come together as a whole, that is when beautiful things happen. In short, he taught us that it is not about you and I only – it is about us and how we can create impact through our mindfulness.
