In the ever changing VUCA world with unpredictable business dynamics, organizations must ensure their employees are well-equipped to handle the inevitable challenges and thrive nonetheless.
It was late evening in the last week of June 2010. I had said my formal good byes to all my colleagues in HP – a company that I had passionately worked for, nearly a decade. All that was left now, was to collect my stuff and walk away forever. The moment seemed surreal, all of a sudden. The memories of a decade, all came rushing back in an instant – and I suddenly felt very weak-kneed. Just then, I felt an arm around my shoulders, “How are you my friend?”. It was my friend and colleague, RamG Vallath. It seems rather melodramatic now, but at that instant, as I tried to speak – the words choked up in my throat and despite myself, my eyes welled up with tears! I quickly hustled to the washroom – to give myself a couple of moments to get over those emotions.
