LEADER TALK with Martin Crowe & Arundhati Bhattacharya
MUMBAI: After a successful first season last year, CNN-IBN is back with its second season of Leader Talk, in association with Gulf Oil. The talk show features some of the world’s most well-known corporate giants and sports legends who share their ideas, thoughts, experiences and leadership mantras.
In the seventh episode of this season, Rajdeep Sardesai speaks to Martin Crowe, New Zealand’s successful batsman and former captain; and Arundhati Bhattacharya, the chairperson of State Bank of India. On the show, the two leaders talk about how important it is for a leader to inspire others through their deeds and overcome their fears. While Crowe believes in living in the moment, without fearing the past or the future, Bhattacharya says that one needs to be grounded to achieve something great; once you create a reputation thereafter your reputation precedes you.
