Leadership in Matters that matter
At age 67, I have varied and rich experience of innovation ( including TRIZ) and leadership - 26 years in the army and about 18 in the corporate world. I have two books - 'Leadership for Colonels & Business Managers' and 'Reclaim your Democracy'. I am a deep thinker, very influenced by Nicholos Taleb on randomness. Feel strongly pulled to do something for my country and my people. alok.asthana@gmail.com. +91 9821677859, Thane 400607, IndiaPodcasts
