“Let your light shine”
…you are the future
Stephen Manallack
Presentation to Amity University Students
How do you let your
light shine?
• Stephen Covey:
“Communication is the most
important skill in life”
• Sir Richard Branson:
“Communication is the most
important skill any leader can
possess”
Indian business
leaders truly shine!
Kumar Mangalam Birla, Chairman of
The Aditya Birla Group
“It is about building the highest
levels of empathy, without
compromising on fairness and
running a popularity contest.”
Dr Ashok K Chauhan
shines!
This is how to shine! My
Journey…
No Limitations – it is your world
What is the starting point?
Many of the best known leaders –
Branson and Jobs in the west, Tata and
Birla in India - combined good values and
effective communication. You can do this
too.
Who do you admire?
What are the good values to underpin
your personal brand?
…Avoiding the BOX OF LIMITATIONS
VALUES will help you shine
• Generosity – giving time, contributing,
thinking of others, being present,
listening
• Ethics – do no harm, act for the good
– what are my intentions?
• Patience – acceptance of what
presents, allow failure or imperfection
ACTION then makes you shine
• Talk – it is safe to be silent but you
build connection when you talk
• Listen – deep listening – silent -
respect
• Connect – see communication as a
real open sharing between you and
others - wishing for the happiness and
success of everyone around you –
takes you out of the small world of
“me”
YOGANANDA inspires
(Yogananda was one of the first to bring yoga
from India to the west)
“There is a magnet in your heart
that will attract true friends. That
magnet is unselfishness, thinking
of others first; when you learn to
live for others, they will live for
you.”
Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw is
Chair and Managing Director
of Biocon Ltd
“One should not be
demotivated by failure but
learn from one’s mistakes.
A sense of overall
perseverance is very
essential”.
The Big Secret
Always have something
useful to say.
HOW?
By using the 5 W’s
