He has taken on this additional responsibility after D Rajkumar, who was the CMD earlier, retired last month. Leaders are at the forefront of this change and tasked with giving direction to their organisations, to successfully emerge from this crisis unscathed. It starts with changing mindsets and building resilience. Organisationally, achieving or improving resilience includes building a more agile operating model; ensuring that the workforce has the right capability set; nurturing organisational relationships; sharing data in real time; displaying and promoting leadership that engenders trust, supports creativity and innovation. Reimagine the new normal, Accelerate digitisation and automation for distributed workforce, Ensure collaboration, flexibility, inclusion and accountability, Build team resilience and adaptability, Encourage agility and innovation, are the five ways to accelerate innovation in an organisation.
