When we started to connect with what we call the younger high performers, on the other hand - people in their late 20s and early 30s - it was very different. We would have breakfast meetings with a dozen of them, and we would invite them to give very, very frank views. We soon realized that they were suffocated and that they wanted change. So we started picking out some of these individuals and giving them challenges.” Source: Kumra, Gautan: ”Leading Change: An Interview with the managing director of Tata Motors.” mckinseyquarterly.com, January 2007.
