Padmakar Kappagantula Part 2/7 From Studying Plants to People
In the second segment, we briefly delve into Padmakar\u2019s academic and career trajectory: from graduating in an unusual and interesting discipline - agriculture \u2013 to studying human resources in the renowned TISS (Tata Institute of Social Sciences) to working with Bharat Petroleum (BPCL) for over three decades. He reflects how one mustn\u2019t typecast people and the importance of recognising the passions and interests of employees and encouraging them. BTW, if you haven\u2019t yet already, do check our earlier released Keep it Alive podcast with Padmakar and his stellar initiative of rolling out iPassion platform at BPCL for building passion-based communities within the organisation and even the industry.
