Why Leadership?
• India has always been a nation of doers.

• We are excellent in doing things. We produce
outstanding analysts, programmers and managers. And
while doing this we produce services which are cost
competent.
• But the problem with cost competency is that it is
fleeting. That it does not give us any sustainable
competitor advantage. It can be replicated easily and
hence it is India today, but it could be any nation
tomorrow.
• To get on to the next level India should build itself as a
nation of leaders. We should build leadership in the
country.

So, What is Ordinary?
• Ordinary is this boy called Mohan. Who read a

newspaper for the first time at the age of 16. Who was
scared of darkness. Who barely managed to pass his
matriculation. Who had the worst of stage frights.

• Ordinary is this boy called Jack. Who was always

under some illness or the other. He was constantly
suffering from chicken pox, whooping cough. At the age
of three he has a scarlet fever and his parents thought
he would never survive.

• Ordinary is this boy called Thomas. Who was the

youngest of seven children of his impoverished parents.
He had a brain fever which took a toll on his health. He
had hardly three months of formal education. He was
forced to take job as a newspaper vendor in a local train
to support his family.

Leadership is a Decision
• As you have seen in the cases of Gandhiji, Edison

and John F Kennedy, great leaders are not
distinguishable from ordinary people in terms of
their intelligence, talents, or abilities for that
matter.
• They did not possess anything that made them
born leaders – no birthrights, no pedigree and no
extraordinary attributes.
• But when they were faced with a defining moment,
they boldly decided to step in to the shoes of a
leader.

QuickTimeª and a
You Can Decide to be Extraordinary

• Many of us here think that we are ordinary. That
we did not get a chance to be at IIT, or an IIM,
that we did not go to a Harvard or MIT.
• But if you would decide we would make you a
leader.
• Decide..that is the first step

QuickTimeª and a
Next Session
• In the next session, we shall discuss why most of

us are not taking this decision. Why we continue
remaining as ordinary, when we have the choice to
be extraordinary.
• Another engaging, interesting and inspiring
session.
• Spread this word around, because only
together we can build our nation.
