Ruchira Chaudhary talks to Tushar Mulay about her new book Coaching - The Secret Code to Uncommon Leadership
On 27th 2.00 pm - 2.40 pm
After a warm welcome by the anchor, Mr Tushar Mulay takes the opportunity to appreciate Ms Ruchira Chaudhary and her work over the years, he requests her to give the viewers an insight into her journey. Ms Ruchira gladly accepts the request and talks about she worked at an advertising agency and how things changed when she moved into the field of HR development and then eventually into leadership development. She also talks about how her journey was not a cakewalk as she had to escape organisations where growth didn’t come about and stagnation was imminent. Mr Tushar is amazed by Ms Chaudhary’s approach to work as a whole and asks her about the idea of her new book. Ms Ruchira tells the viewers that she always wanted to bring to the fore her thoughts and ideas about how coaching can unleash incredible leaders if done in the right way and that’s what the book is about. She goes on to talk about how the book hits the link between coaching and leadership development in a very subtle way. The conversation goes on in the same direction with a few more questions before coming to an end.
