Unprecedented and unimaginable uncertainty is almost redefining the leadership principles. While core qualities remain same as these were in last century, new critical elements are being added that need be cared for in current and foreseeable corporate environment that is unforgetting and unforgiving.

1. Winning Amidst Uncertainty

2. Plan and prepare to endure and overcome long,
sustained, overwhelming and uncertain chaos.

3. Journey ahead would be bumpy and not for faint
hearted or short sighted.

4. Either scale up your skills or scale down your expectations – both depends on
YOU.

5. Remain consistent in your preparedness to
change.

6. Globalization and democratization are no longer
choices.

7. Aim for excellence and not perfection.

8. Graduate from professional to craftsman mind-
set.

9. • Be coherent to the extent that you should be
able to hold on to the core, irrespective or
rather inspite of challenges posed on that.
• If content is the king, context is the queen,
ignore the later on your own peril.
Have Conviction in your Purpose

10. Take decisions and be prepared to face the
consequences.
Leadership is hard, and at times dirty, even if
thrilling.
To minimize the guilt, give credit, take blame
and remain self-critical.
The Buck Stops at YOU.

11. Nothing can make you more heroic than
choosing the right enemy.
Pick the toughest challenge first. If you have to
eat frog, pick the ugliest first.
Hate more to lose than you love to win.
Whoever said winning or losing is not important
has most likely ended up on losing side.
Choose the Right Enemy

12. Curiosity, humility and empathy are as
important and as similar as your physical health,
decline and deteriorate by default as you grow.
Take additional care and nurture to minimize
decay, you would need them more and more in
your march ahead.
Keep Grounded & Adapting

13. It is others who make you successful. Take good
care of them.
Between those who work and those who take
credit, chose the former group as it is less
crowded and, surprisingly, ironically and
definitely, chances of recognition are more
there.
Look after & upto OTHERS

14. ENJOY – You only live Once
