    00:31- About Deepak Khetrapal
    • Deepak is the former Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Orient Cement Ltd.
    • He’s also the former VC and MD of Orient Electric Ltd.
      • 10:23- What are the biggest misconceptions about leadership?
      • Leadership is not about authority or power, but about surrendering control and creating space for others.
      • True leadership requires vulnerability and self-awareness, especially when acting under uncertainty.
      • Great leaders build safety, trust, and connection, enabling people to drop their masks and bring their authentic selves forward.
        • 17:17- What role do humility and ego play in shaping a leader’s philosophy?
        • Humility is a leader’s greatest strength because it enables continuous learning and genuine growth.
        • Ego becomes a major barrier, blocking good decisions, collaboration, and long-term success.
        • Humility fosters a culture where people lift each other up, support failures, and let the most capable—not the most senior—lead.
