🧠INSIGHTS
We had a lot of fun during the episode. We have only known him as someone who signs documents for us. But as part of the conversation, we learned a lot about him and his personal life. Here are the key things -
🎓Becoming an academician - Hari sir always wanted to make an impact on people. He says the best way to make an impact on someone’s life is to help them or guide them. And what better way to become a professor?
🧘♀️Spirituality and the Bhagawad Gita - He says that spirituality comes from within. You have to control your body, mind, and intelligence (BMI). He explains it with a beautiful example from the Gita.
🤔Leadership - People skills and respecting other humans is one of the most important skills you will gain. Give people enough space to think for themselves but make them feel supported. Don’t let space become a distance.
💻Online Education - Physical classes can never be replaced. But he says, we will move towards online education. So how can that happen? A hybrid model. And in order for that to work, the teachers have to lead from the front.
