Cisco ex-CEO John Chambers | Masterclass for Entrepreneurs & Leaders | Karishma Mehta | EP 164

Описание: “If you look at the population of 1.4 billion people in India, they are all optimistic and young, working without a bias of religion or the state that one comes from. The math is simple; India is going to grow from 1.4 billion people to 2 billion. And if they execute it well, the next century will be India’s century. India is definitely going to be the largest economy in the world. It is inevitable.”

Straight from the tech capital of the world Silicon valley, we had the honor to have a chat with John Chambers – the ex CEO of Cisco, a global leader and a man who shaped the digital revolution, advised start ups across the globe and shaped world leaders like Steve Jobs, George Bush and PM Narendra Modi. He is one of the biggest and most beloved technology titans of our time. Even when people criticized him for moving too fast in his career, all he had to say was, “Given a chance I again, I would move faster.”

This episode is nothing short of a masterclass in leadership qualities, company building and cultivating a strong company culture. Learn from the man himself –all about decision making, facing challenges and navigating through every aspect in life. He also spoke about his relationship with India and how he believes that India is soon going to be the largest economy in the world.
