Through the hustling and bustling sounds of busy streets of Mumbai, as the sun rises over the spectacular horizon, we pour ourselves a cup of Chai (tea), with the flavors of cardamom and ginger refreshing us for one of the most critical conversations of this year and beyond is the Future of Transformational Leadership.
In this episode, I speak with Dr. Ritu Anand, Chief Leadership and Diversity Officer of Tata Consultancy Services, a global giant that serves all industries across most sectors, holding 620,000 employees. We unfold what it takes to be an authentic, empathetic, and trustworthy leader by discussing the hopes and challenges in the space of DE&I.
We immerse ourselves into the evolution of DE&I by revealing that it is indeed a mindset than a program that an organization needs to focus on. Most importantly, we agree that the real form of a good leader is one who can think beyond themselves and shows up to be authentic, empathetic, and dares to wear their heart on their sleeves.
