CXO Life

13/01/2021

So, we're starting the new year with the story of a CXO who refused to rely on 'magic pills' to bail him out of a health crisis but instead claimed his freedom by putting his legs (and his will) to good use. By running! He not only disproved his physician's outlook but transformed into an avid marathoner and is now a runner for life!

Get set to meet Anindo Ganguly, Director & Delivery Leader, DXC Technology (UK) who has worked with some of the biggest IT giants in India and UK. His 'work experience' boasts of prominent leadership roles in Infosys (UK), Sasken, Wipro Technologies.

Now, if you perceive him to be an IT geek what with that stellar resume, his simple, no-nonsense and bespectacled look coupled with the inherently intellectual ‘Bong factor’ - you wouldn’t really be the only one.

As per Anindo’s admission, the guise has worked well in his favour to enable get him the results he desires (he can be quite a taskmaster). However, appearances can be deceptive of course. On some fronts!

Here’s a trailer of our conversation with him which showcases his grit, sense of humour and playfulness all at once! Watch out for the full conversation which will soon stream on all leading audio platforms!

With markets about 30% off their peaks within a month, this bonus segment of our conversation with Rajesh Saluja, CEO, ASK Wealth Advisors, should do well to reiterate some key tenets of investing and wealth creation -

1. Starting early
2. Doing the necessary homework before investing that hard-earned money
3. Staying committed to systematic investment in well-regulated products for the long-run
4. Understanding the power of compounding & letting it work for you
5. Building the temperament to stay focused on the objective regardless of the changes/fluctuations in the external environment.

All this laced with some good humour..
