“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent; it is the one most adaptable to change.” — Charles Darwin This time around, last year, I was part of a Leadership Program at Stanford, understanding concepts that will help me break the mold & change the world. On the wall of the classroom, I chanced upon this famous quote by Charles Darwin, the significance of which I’ve been able to come to terms with, only in the last 10 months. The most unimaginable.

As we transition into 2021, along with sustainable business & talent priorities, organizations will need to safeguard its employees by institutionalizing the immunization programme & orchestrating a powerful return to work strategy. “Never let a good crisis go to waste” – Winston Churchill The last few weeks have been surreal.

As I write this, I’m reminded of a quote by Richard Branson – “Train people well enough so they can leave, treat them well enough so they don’t want to.” So apt and sums it up beautifully. No wonder they say, people leave managers, not companies! A subject that is very close to my heart and the reason I turn up at work every day – managers and TEAM! A few months ago, I met a colleague from another organization and he said something very interesting about managing people.
