At JK Business School, we understand that the journey to leadership is paved with learning, growth, and the willingness to harness every opportunity that comes your way. It is with this spirit that we welcomed Mr. Rakesh Kumar from Berger Paints to deliver a transformative session on the essence of personal and professional growth at our leadership talk.
Mr. Kumar, a vanguard in the industry, drew upon his extensive experience to share insights that are not only invaluable but also actionable. He spoke about the judicious use of available resources—a skill that marks the difference between a good leader and a great one. His emphasis on developing a winning mindset resonated with our students, who are poised to become the future torchbearers in their respective fields.
The event, packed with JKBS students and faculty, became a confluence of eager minds and seasoned experiences. Mr. Kumar underscored the importance of learning from others, speaking less but with intent, and the power of a committed win. “Try to hit by nose,” he said, encouraging the audience to aim with precision and determination in their endeavors.
But what is a winning mindset without self-esteem? Mr. Kumar connected the dots between self-regard and vital life skills such as rationality, realism, creativity, and the flexibility to manage change. He highlighted the courage to admit mistakes, benevolence, and cooperativeness as pillars that uphold the structure of a robust professional career.
During the session, he also laid out the foundational steps of personal introduction, emphasizing the impact of family background, education, and body language. He called upon students to cherish their proud moments, to seek and maximize internship opportunities, and to always be ready to showcase their best selves for corporate hiring.
Mr. Kumar’s leadership talk was not just a lesson in winning challenges but also in humility and the cultivation of high emotional intelligence. He touched upon the significance of a well-structured daily schedule, the concept of ‘unlearning to learn,’ and the undeniable truth that leaders need followers—a true leader connects on an individual level.
His closing notes included a powerful message: easy things are not valuable, and the true scope of work lies in doing one’s best. The JKBS community, imbued with fresh insights, left the hall inspired and more prepared to navigate the journey ahead.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Rakesh Kumar for imparting wisdom that our students will carry and build upon throughout their careers. At JKBS, we are committed to organizing such enriching experiences that prepare our students not just for the corporate world but for life’s myriad challenges.
