What would you do differently, knowing that you probably have 1,000 weeks left in this world?
Neeraj Narayan has spent 14 years with Nike as a top global director, working his way through roles and ranks across different countries. These days, he is an entrepreneur, investor, mentor, and CEO of Synergy India Ventures, which is dedicated to social impact.
He is also embracing his creativity through writing, painting and photography - all captured with his unique lens of deep introspection. Neeraj shares what it is like to be "a rebel in the family”, to constantly pursue something meaningful to him outside of the scripted path, which his father would have much preferred for him. We share thoughts on how important curiosity is in leadership, yet how challenging some managers find it.
The conversation also goes deeper into his journey, from burnout to entrepreneurship, managing the highs and lows of running your own business, and how setting boundaries may actually just set you free.
