Some of the wisdom nuggets he shared were Vulnerability – Taking Ownership and accepting mistakes & trust covered with the example of Mahabharat Yudh and teams of Kauravas and Pandavas. He derived a much-needed conclusion – with common purpose, no egos and collaboration we can do teamwork and win in any situation.
Radhakrishnan Pillai pointed out gently that wisdom starts from our own home and from our grandparents. One should sit with Grandparents at least sometime. One does not necessarily need education to become wise, one must be wise to be educated. “Rajyguru comes before Raja”- by this he explains the importance of Guru in one’s life. He covered various concepts from Ramayana, Mahabharat and Acharya Chanakya which we can implement in modern management.
