In this episode we are going to bust some of the most popular myths around leadership. And this is important especially for the startup space as Leadership responsibilities come quite earlier in this sector and brings in with it a lot of challenges on the personal and the startup front.
I am excited to have Kanishka Sinha with me on the podcast today, to enlighten us on this topic. Kanishka is a leadership development and executive coach, with over 2 decades of experience in this space. He has been a professor of Communications and Ethics at the prestigious ISB.
Kanishka has spoken several times on the Tedx platform on the topic of leadership.
