Their&nbsp;grit and commitment are so inspiring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We discussed the rise of remote work post-COVID and how today, we must all adapt to a&nbsp;hybrid workplace for our employees. Work-life balance is something that all of us strive for,&nbsp;and our role as leaders in creating a company culture where our employees and our&nbsp;organisation can thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of us have biases, and some of those spill into our workplace. They affect our team&#8217;s morale, the work environment and, in turn, create more biases. How do we, as leaders, keep it from affecting our employees and our culture? How do we create a culture that feels good to employees but is still beneficial for our companies?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, it all comes down to people. We have to trust them and guide them to do their jobs, we cannot do it for them. A leader&#8217;s job is to delegate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My biggest takeaway from the session was, &#8220;Change is the only constant, our ability to navigate through change will define our success.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Organised by the offices of External Relations and Alumni Engagement, &#8216;Meet with a LeadHer&#8217;, is a series of interactive lunch\/coffee meets where a woman leader will share perspectives on their journey and achievements with a select audience from the ISB community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of the \u2018Meet with a LeadHer\u2019 series, organised in the run-up to International&nbsp;Women\u2019s Day in Pune, I had the pleasure of interacting with Anu Aga, Padma Shri Awardee&nbsp;and former Rajya Sabha Member, and Meher Pudumjee, Chairperson of Thermax Ltd &#8211; the&nbsp;mother-daughter team behind the billion-dollar conglomerate \u2018Thermax Global.\u2019&nbsp; They&nbsp;shared their story of how [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1327,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false},"categories":[88,27],"tags":[87],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.5 -
