Questions (page 2)
Q2. 2.1 15 If you want to leave your footprints on the sands of time, do not drag your feet. Anyone who has taken up the responsibility to lead a team can be successful only if he is sufficiently independent. This is perhaps also the path to individual satisfaction in life, for freedom with responsibility is the only sound basis for personal happiness. What can one do to strengthen personal freedom? I would like to share with you two techniques I adopt in this regard. First, by building your own education and skills. Knowledge is a tangible asset, quite often the most important tool in your work. The more up-to-date the knowledge you possess, the freer you are. A leader can only be free to lead his team if he keeps abreast of all that is happening around him in real time. To lead, in a way, is to engage in continuing education. The second way is to develop a passion for personal responsibility. Be active! Take on responsibility! Work for the things you believe in. Prof. Dhawan was a true captain of the ISRO ship - a commander, navigator, house keeper, all rolled into one. I had the privilege of spending a great deal of time with Prof. Dhawan. He had an unusual combination of degrees - a B.Sc. in Mathematics and Physics, an M.A. in English Literature, B.E. in Mechanical Engineering, M.S. in Aeronautical Engineering followed by a Ph.D. in Aeronautics and Mathematics from the California Institute of Technology in USA. Intellectual debates with him were very stimulating and could always mentally energize me and my team members. I found him full of optimism and compassion.
