In this episode of Unleashed, we explore why so many professionals chase titles and recognition instead of building passion, impact, and self-confidence. We draw on stories of a young employee devastated by a missed promotion and a leader driven by family expectations. Our guests, Khurshed Batliwala, Rishikesha Krishnan, Debu Mishra, and Guru Sowle, discuss how societal pressure, especially in India, creates a fear of failure and low tolerance for mistakes. They also discuss how companies in India add organizational layers to meet the demand for frequent promotions. The conversation emphasizes giving yourself space to fail, focusing on contribution over labels, building personal credibility beyond brand names, and using meditation and yoga to strengthen self-belief, manage anxiety, and unlock full potential.
