Mr. Bhaskar Bhat Titan Industries Interview
This video features an interview with Mr. Bhaskar Bhat, the Managing Director of Titan Industries. Mr. Bhat shares his early life and career journey, emphasizing the learning experience gained from living in different cities. He explains that Titan Industries prioritizes performance and interest over educational qualifications for most roles, highlighting examples of employees transitioning between departments. Mr. Bhat attributes the development of the world's thinnest watch to Titan's culture of openness and encouraging risk-taking, or inspiring people to "think beyond and think big." He mentions the founder's mantra of "think big" and the importance of continuously questioning existing norms. He also notes that Titan's first innovation was positioning watches as lifestyle accessories rather than just time-keeping devices. For young entrepreneurs, Mr. Bhat advises against relying solely on research, advocating for "living the consumer's life" and putting oneself in their shoes, encouraging employees to work in stores to directly experience consumer interactions. He stresses the importance of understanding how a product fits into a consumer's life and involving consumers in product development.
