From his early days in Hindustan Unilever to leading global brands like Nokia and Pepsi, Shiv has witnessed corporate India evolve from typewriters to AI. But while the tools have changed, the fundamentals of success haven’t. In this episode, we unpack: 💼 How to think like a CEO (even when you’re not one.) 🧠 Why young managers fail.. and what separates fast learners from frustrated ones. 📼 The 80s vs. Gen Z workplace and the lessons each generation misses. 📱 The Nokia callback blunder (which SRK had to jump in to save them) 🌍 Why inflation and digitalization are rewriting how the world operates. 🚀 The truth about entrepreneurship in 2025 and what most founders get wrong. 🎓 MBA or not? Shiv’s unfiltered take on education, people skills, and thinking deeply. 💬 How he balances ambition, relationships, and money after decades at the top. It’s not just a crash course in leadership, it’s a peek into the mindset of someone who’s led through every kind of chaos. — Subscribe: The 1% Club: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@onepercentclub12 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/onepercentclub/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/school/the-1-clubfws Sharan Hegde: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/financewithsharan/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sharanhegde95/ Twitter/X: https://x.com/financewsharan – — Behind every great company is a leader who built it the hard way.
