Would you rather have 100 Million Dollars or have the ability to influence 100 Million people? A question that I was asked at one of my #CEO interviews, which profoundly goes deep into the concept - #money vs #mindset I did well in the interview and landed the CEO role, but this question stayed with me for a while. I now ask this of young people who I either #mentor or who approach me for advice on career / life aspirations. You probably know my answer, what will be yours and why? I will share my answer in a few days. There are no right or wrong answers, however, the individual's thought process behind each answer is the driving factor for the response. #mindset #career #perspectives #values #money

To achieve the Viksit Bharat goal and transform India into a $40 trillion economy by 2047, we need a new tech driven playbook focusing on... 1️⃣ Significant R&D investment and IP generation 2️⃣ Transforming our talent pool into a hub of world-class talent 3️⃣ Becoming the global gold standard for large-scale technology deployment India stands at a pivotal moment in its economic journey. A Viksit Bharat is definitely within reach, with a strategic and concerted effort across all sectors of society. Yes, this will require tremendous collaboration and a strong commitment to a shared vision. But, in a country that developed its own vaccines and immunized over a billion people within a couple of years, achieving this transformation is clearly possible. nasscom Kavita Doshi LiveMint Link to article ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gnfvVRY4

With #Max Hospital group expanding its presence in #Lucknow and #Nagpur, the trend is on for #corporate hospital groups to expand beyond the #metros and tier 1 cities and venture into #Tier2 and #Tier3 cities. While this presents both challenges and opportunities for small and medium-sized hospital owners, the crucial question remains...how can they continue to grow and sustain amidst the ensuing competitive scenario? Merely on #legacy and (#clinical) familiar popularity and following? Such #Owners and #CEOs could only consider #selling their hospitals if that aligns with their #exit plan, provided there is a suitable buyer! To avoid fading into #irrelevance, they also have the wonderful option to #enhance their #competitive play by offering high-quality care at competitive value and prices, integrating local culture into #branding and #marketing efforts, and potentially attracting #investment for #expansion. For such #clinician owners/ Founders/ CEOs looking to #augment their hospital #strategy and #management skills while still running their practices, they might consider seeking mentorship, attending relevant workshops or conferences, or even pursuing further professional updates in #hospitalmanagement. A unique #Executive Leadership program that fulfills this need and hunger is given below in the link. This is for such hospital owners and CEOs curated by #Successful Hospital owners and Founders themselves. #Explore now... https://lnkd.in/gpX4qpEw

Weighing the Risks: The Hidden Dangers of Raising Children in India As parents, our paramount concern is the safety and well-being of our children. My family's recent harrowing experience in #Hyderabad India has prompted me to share a crucial perspective for those indian origin parents considering raising their children in India, where safety regulations might not meet the standards you expect. Recently, my son, a US citizen being raised in India to foster close family bonds, suffered life-threatening injuries due to severe negligence at his grandparents' apartment complex owned by Vamsiram Homes / VAMSIRAM BUILDERS AND DEVELOPERS PRIVATE LIMITED. The lack of basic safety measures like fencing and warning signs led to a devastating fall from ground floor podium to parking cellar, resulting in a dire medical emergency, including a Grade 3 Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI), kidney trauma, and multiple fractures. His fight for life in an ICU for over a week has been a grim wake-up call to the stark realities of systemic shortcomings. The eleven days he spent in the ICU were the most painful and terrifying of our lives. Every second was drenched in fear and uncertainty. The sight of my son, so small and fragile, connected to a maze of tubes and wires, underscored the precariousness of our situation. Sleep evaded us as we hung on to every small sign of improvement, each moment praying for his recovery. This incident exposes a broader issue: the perilous gaps in safety standards and enforcement in some overseas environments. Builder more focused on selling apartment than maintaining basic safety standards, lack of proper audits or corruption by Greater Hyderabad Muncipal Corporation before giving out occupany certificates are concerning issues. As much as living in India can offer enriching cultural experiences and family bonding, it also comes with potential risks that are often overlooked until tragedy strikes. With powerful builders such as Vamsiram involved, we can hardly expect any legal action taking place against them. For those contemplating a similar path, I urge you to consider not just the cultural and familial benefits but also the infrastructure and safety standards of the country. It's crucial to thoroughly investigate and continually advocate for the safety and security measures in any living situation abroad, ensuring that the environment is conducive to health and safety for our most vulnerable.

Co-lead a workshop (with Sumathi my business partner and Komal lath of Tute Consult) on branding and communication and why/how its' strategic & important for the portfolio companies of an early stage growth focused PE fund in Mumbai this noon. very interactive session. lots of takeaways. one of the biggest benefits of doing such workshops with founders and CXOs of growth companies is that you get to first hand understand their pain points and priorities. which makes you realize there is a long road ahead laden with great opportunity for those in PR & comms if we take off our hats and look at it from their perspective.
