Mumbai 25th November, 2021:<\/strong>\u00a0In his interaction, Mr. R. Gopalakrishnan drew a parallel between India and China- India is good at soft skills while China was always good in the manufacturing sector. He said Enterprise business management is the next big thing that will be exported from India. He talked about Indianising business management and that we\u2019ve a long tradition of \u2018I\u2019sation. He highlighted \u2018I\u2019sation goes back to when government exams were democratized. R. Gopalakrishnan also discussed about the 7S framework of management which holds the seven internal aspects of any company that works in tandem for assured success of an organization. He pointed out that trust is more important in competitive platform.<\/p>\n

Dr. Ranjan Banerjee talked about how Indian Managers benefit from living their formative years in India, which stands them in good stead on global platform. We are used to living in ambiguity, which helps us adapt fast to the situation. He gave an interesting example of how retail stores in the USA cannot calculate giving out change if you give them extra money, unlike an Indian \u2018Kirana\u2019 store owner who calculates the change to be given back quickly using mental maths.<\/p>\n

Dr. Banerjee also talked about family values belong a key driver for the Indian manager and we have faced competitive intensity throughout our lives. Inclusion and diversity enables a Made in India Manager to adapt quickly to changing scenarios and take up challenging roles. An Indian manager speaks an average of 4 languages which adds to his diversity. Dr Banerjee strongly believe today’s millennials will be global managers tomorrow.<\/p>\n

During the interactive Q&A- session Mr. Gopalakrishnan elaborated on how different communities have spread out and built business enterprises and the common thread he observed is that they nurtured human talent and threw challenges at them.<\/p>\n

Dr. Sahajanand Kamat, Assistant Professor, MPSTME Civil Engineering Department, Mumbai NMIMS and Ms. Saitejasvi Deshmukh, 4th year MBA Technology Management student, MPSTME, NMIMS, moderated the session.<\/p>\n

Shantanu Narayen at Adobe, Satya Nadella at Microsoft, Padmasree Warrier at NIO, and Sundar Pichai at Google- there are innumerable instances of CEOs born and grew today in India, helming S&P\u2019s 500 companies.
