The best advice

NARESH GOYAL
CHAIRMAN, JET AIRWAYS
“I try to maintain complete transparency in my principles and never compromise with them. I don’t remember precisely who gave me this advice, maybe it came from my own learnings in the corporate world.”

ARNAB GOSWAMI
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF, TIMES NOW
”Well, largely I’ve been pretty much doing my own thing without following anyone’s advice. But I recall that at the time I was quitting NDTV a few years ago, my friend Uday Shanker (Star India CEO) advised me on the merits of flying solo. He said that ‘one’s real abilities are not tested until and unless they fly solo’. I joined Times Now and have not looked back ever since.”

AMIT BURMAN
VICE CHAIRMAN, DABUR INDIA
“My father always advised me that you should think about the welfare of Dabur first and then only cater to your personal emotional needs. I took that advice and today don’t regret passing the baton of Dabur Foods to a professional.”

M.A. MADHUSUDAN
CEO, VIRGIN MOBILE INDIA
A dear colleague of mine once told me that if you feel that something is right and it can give positive results just go ahead and do it – don’t deliberate too much. I treasure this mantra.”

ANN OLLESATD
AMBASSADOR, ROYAL NORWEGIAN EMBASSY
“I learned a lot from my daughter and one of the best advices she gave me was to be courteous to everyone, but to share your private thoughts with only a few. Also, India as a country always advises on the importance of living in harmony. ”

CHANDER M SETHI
CHAIRMAN AND MD, RECKITT BENCKISER
“Never howl on any situation, rather try to take all possible benefits from it.”

B.S. NAGESH
MANAGING DIRECTOR, SHOPPER’S STOP
“The best advice that I got was from one of my friends who advised me never to force people into anything. Consensus is better.”

ARVIND SHARMA
CHAIRMAN AND CEO, LEO BURNETT INDIA
“I got this advice in the first week of my MBA at IIM-A by Professor Balakrishnan. He said, you must define the problem correctly and chances are that you will solve the problem correctly.”
