1h 1m · Tales From Heads · 14 Mar 06:30

Joining me in the latest episode of Tales from Heads is Robin Banerjee, President and CEO of Caprihans India Limited

We talk about his early years of struggle, doing a CA because it was the cheapest professional course available, and the fabulous advice from a colleague and a boss that helped him grow. Robin also shares stories that underscore the importance of having an open mind, having a mentor to look up to, and never letting go of your dreams.

Robin is also a best-selling author and writes about corporate frauds, blunders and scams. And he tells us why intelligent people do dumb things - and why we should always value our values.

Confessions of a new age advertising man with Dheeraj Sinha

Dheeraj Sinha, CEO Leo Burnett South Asia joins me this week on Tales from heads.

As a little boy, Dheeraj spent six months standing in the balcony of his home in Bihar Sharif watching shoppers and shopkeepers in the bazar all day. And maybe it was this early love affair with the reality of the marketplace and the cycle rickshaw blaring ads for Bollywood films that led to his passion for consumers and advertising. Amazing how those early years impact our thinking, our choices, our lives.

Listen in, as Dheeraj talks about courage, leading from the front, making happiness-based choices, and the power of ‘And’. Plus the India-Australia paradox that’s influenced the design of the new Leo Burnett office.

Listen in. As the ad guys would say, you don’t want to miss this!
