Abin Das Hinduja Group Interview
This video features an interview with Abin Das, Director of Hinduja Group. Abin Das shares his journey from being born in Shillong to moving to Calcutta at 16 to work due to economic hardships, starting his career at the predecessor of British Airways while attending college. He emphasizes the importance of hard work, personal and professional integrity, and fearlessness as key factors in his rapid career progression, noting that he was never in one job for more than 18 months or two years, constantly moving up the ranks. He advises against being a "clock watcher" and stresses the importance of completing tasks to the best of one's ability. He also discusses how overcoming fear, which he believes stems from excessive attachment to material possessions, is crucial for initiative and success. He explains that being a team player involves understanding the aspirations, strengths, and weaknesses of others, and shares a valuable leadership lesson: never ask others to do what you wouldn't do yourself.
