The Creators of Tomorrow

The creator of tomorrow is any person who teaches, imparts, creates, disseminates, shares knowledge leading to creation of new capabilities and capacities. A tomorrow that would make the world a better place to be in. I would like to call this person "Teacher". And the teacher is not limited to the academics, he / she is all encompassing. For it is the teacher who creates a tomorrow and sows the seeds of building new capabilities and capacities. Organizations for me are ones that strengthen, nurture and grow the tomorrow. They sharpen and add finesse to the people moulded and shaped that way by the creators of tomorrow.

Hence it is of utmost importance that any person who falls within the all encompassing creator of knowledge definition realizes his worth and the responsibility that rests on their shoulders. These people are not just sowing the seeds of knowledge but get an first hand opportunity to make learning an integral part of life and influence things to come. The learning is not just limited to intellectual capital but a learning that creates new capabilities and capacities.

Unfortunately there is hardly any realization about the tomorrow that is being created amongst the creators and the focus is just on delivering rather the creation.

The bicycle, meticulously maintained, symbolizes resilience and love—it once served as a livelihood tool for the family and now stands as a "god" in their household. The relative, referred to as Nandhini’s husband, shows unwavering affection and generosity toward Arul, despite the latter's inability to recall his name or their shared history. This anonymity does not dimi...

Day 19 - The Power of Multidisciplinary Approach

In an era of specialization, many of the world's most successful people advocate for a broader, more holistic view—one that embraces a multidisciplinary approach to life. This approach involves combining knowledge and skills from various fields, leading to better problem-solving, creativity, and adaptability. Think of a Renaissance person like Leonardo da Vinci, whose expertise spanned art, science, and engineering, shaping innovation for centuries. Today, the importance of a multidisciplinary mindset has become even more crucial in navigating the complexities of modern life. The Impact of a Multidisciplinary Approach David Epstein’s book, Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World, provides compelling arguments for why those who explore a wide variety of interests often outperform their more specialized peers in the long run. Epstein highlights examples from sports, business, and science, showing that people who dip their toes into different fields are often...

The recent debates surrounding the idea of a 70+ hour work week have sparked intense reactions, drawing both applause and criticism. While some view it as a badge of honor for high achievers, others see it as an outdated notion that glorifies burnout. But a deeper question emerges: is this debate merely a deliberate attempt to grab eyeballs and enjoy a fleeting hour of glory? In today’s media-driven world, controversial statements often gain disproportionate attention, flooding news feeds and capturing the public’s imagination. Leaders making such proclamations may find themselves in the limelight, relishing the buzz around their bold, albeit polarizing, remarks. But at what cost does this attention come?
