Dealing With Failures - PK Narayanan, CEO Coach
A lot is said about dealing with Failures. We have also heard 'failure is the stepping stone to success'. Is it so? Amazon's Jeff Bezos points out that failures are broadly of two kinds - therefore to be dealt with differently. 1. Experimental failure - 'When we are developing a new product or service or experimenting in some way, and it doesn't work, that's okay - that's the kind of failure you should be happy with', Bezos says.

Dealing with Criticism - PK Narayanan
Criticism – It’s Something that Leaders have to deal with. Anything you do will attract criticism - Anonymous. To avoid criticism, say nothing, do nothing, be nothing - Aristotle. We don't build monuments to trolls - Tim Cook. Anything we do, critics, trolls and naysayers seem to appear from nowhere! So be it.

Do we ask for help when needed? - PK Narayanan
Do we ask for help when needed? A boy and his father were walking on a forest trail. They came across a fallen branch blocking the trail. The boy asked ‘If I try, could I move this branch?’ Father replied, ‘Sure you can, if you use all your strength’. The boy tried, he couldn’t. He tried again, hard. He couldn’t. With disappointment he uttered ‘You were wrong, I can't move it’. Father responded: ‘I told you to use all your strength. You didn’t. You didn't ask for my help’. Asking for help - By doing that...

Ep.8: Patience and Consistency, Pays Back
In today's daily munchy, I share my thoughts on how patience and consistency are the key to success and ultimately achieving your goals. Most tasks we do in our life don't add up to something immediately but over the course of our life, they reap massive benefits. It's like watering a plant and then waiting for the flowers to bloom - which is not in your hands. Be patient and keep doing the work you are doing, it will all add up and revert in great success. “Daily Munchy on the Chalkmeout Podcast” (aka “Morning Munchies”) is a thrice...

Ep.7: Self Discipline, Defines Success
In today's daily munchy, I share my thoughts on self-discipline and the benefits it carries. You can be the smartest person in the room but if you're not disciplined, forget about anything you've planned out. I have seen hardworking and disciplined folks do more in life than the smart ones. With smartness comes an added responsibility that can be achieved with consistency. “Daily Munchy on the Chalkmeout Podcast” (aka “Morning Munchies”) is a thrice a week podcast that aims at rekindling some of our hardcoded values, thoughts, rituals and habits.

How do I fasten and fast-track Decision Making Process?
Decision making is a significant aspect of leadership. As a leader, one needs to take decisions, make choices frequently, on a variety of things. One of the key factors influencing, impacting the effectiveness of decisions is timing - taking timely decisions; without delays. While at that, having the required, relevant information is a key pre-requisite. The pertinent question is, how much of it? How long do one wait to gather all the information that’s ‘felt’ needed? ‘Most decisions should probably be made with somewhere around 70 percent of the informati...

Seeing Things As They Are!
We don’t see things as they are; but as we think they are! As a leader, it’s very important that while taking decisions or making choices we see things as they are, not as what we think they are. I would like to share an incident here. It was 2nd World war time. Allies war planes were on a bombing spree. They were being met with heavy gun fire from the enemy side. Many planes were getting hit and going down. At one point in time the casualty rate rose as high a...

In this podcast I want to share an incident that happened a few years ago. In one of our drive tours in Tamilnadu, we were having breakfast at INDeco Hotel, Swamimalai. The coffee cup in my hand trembled before falling flat on the ground, breaking in to pieces with a thud, spilling the coffee all around. The server who was serving us our breakfast appeared immediately in a composed manner, started clearing the pieces and cleaning the place. While this was on, the Manager of the restaurant appeared with a fresh cup of...

Speed matters. Direction matters even more...
'Direction is so much more important than speed’ said Richard Evans. Speed matters. Alongside speed, we also need to be watchful of the direction, which is easier to lose sight of. Speed thrills. Speed means a lot of activity. A lot of engagement. We may even mistake the increased levels of activity for achievement! In fact, it does harm if we’re fast and we’re headed the wrong way. If we are on a wrong road, added speed means it would take us farther out of our way. Farther off from our destin...

Are there things that we do in our business that have out-lived its purpose?
Are there things that we do in our business that have out-lived its purpose? Are there systems and processes that had been started at some point-in-time with some purpose, but has run-out of its purpose? Here’s a story. A blind man was about to return to his village after a short-stay at his friend’s place. It was evening. As it was going to be a long walk, his friend gave him an oil-lit lantern. Though the blind man protested initially about the futility of him carrying a lantern, his frie...

Where am I putting my energies and attention - on the windshield or rear-view mirror?
TRANSCRIPT In my life or at my work, Where am I putting my energies and attention? The time and energy that we invest on a day to day basis in our past, in our past events and experiences need to be put in perspective. For example, Do we drive a car looking at the rear-view mirror? Not really. While driving, we look through the windshield and look at the rear-view mirror (only) occasionally. When needed. Example, when we are about to take a turn. In our life, at our work...
