Sometimes fraternity events are the best place to think inwards, to contemplate what is and what should be, to celebrate the present and envision the future. Last week I attended Indian IT Industry’s flagship event – NASSCOM India Leadership Forum 2014 in Mumbai and found myself in this intramural state of mind.
So I sat down with Govind Ethiraj on the sidelines of the Forum for a free-wheeling chat on the emerging contours of the Indian IT Industry. We discussed what the sector needs to do to re-fuel its mojo, why inspired leaders should think "transformation" and not just incremental change and how to create high-performance organizations by keeping things simple and uncomplicated.
By the way I must reiterate here that I’m immensely proud of our Industry. We have created a multi-billion industry from scratch and provided employment to millions of Indians. Not just that we have come to symbolize the aspiration of emerging India, a country that is hungry for its pound of flesh in the global economic order. So being a proud Indian Techie I’m keen to keep this conversation open – if you have any ideas or new trains of thoughts on what you imagine are the opportunities and future possibilities for the sector then do drop a line or two at Vineet@vineetnayar.com and I will be happy to curate them as a follow-up blog. Until then I leave you with some food for thought in the shape of this recent Economic Times story.
