LEADER TALK with Rajdeep Sardesai
MUMBAI: After a successful first season last year, Leader Talk, hosted by IBN Network Editor-in-Chief Rajdeep Sardesai, is back with its second season. The talk show features some of the world’s most well-known corporate leaders and sports legends who come and share their ideas, thoughts and experiences on leadership and talk about their success mantras.
Every week, Leader Talk will bring together two personalities from the corporate and sports world, respectively, in an interview with Rajdeep Sardesai, to enable exchange of ideas and explore what leaders in these two areas can learn from each other.
On the opening episode of this season, Rajdeep Sardesai gets up close and personal with Indian Tennis legend Leander Paes and the President of IndiGo Airlines, Aditya Ghosh. The episode highlights what drives both Paes and Ghosh to constantly innovate and reinvent themselves. Talking about leadership, Paes says, a leader’s job is not just to motivate or teach others but also to learn from his team and keep evolving all the time. Likewise, Ghosh emphasizes that leadership has very little to do with the individual and more to do with the team.
Rajdeep Sardesai, Editor-in-Chief, IBN Network, said, “In our endeavour to showcase the key attributes of leadership, that have helped these iconic leaders reach where they are in their respective fields, we are back once again with the second season of Leader Talk. The idea is to showcase how leadership trends are common in both the sports and business world and how each can learn from the other.”
