DPS Modern Indian School alumnus Govind Haridas, from the class of 2008, shared his skillsets on the topic ‘Planning for your future in a strange VUCA World’ on March 20, 2022, via Zoom platform. The webinar was a part of the ‘Alumni Talk Series’, a platform that connects the alumni with the alma mater and was attended by 200 students.
Mr. Govind debunked the myth that “once a failure, always a failure” in his interactive session, explaining that “life is a marathon, not a sprint,” and “if you have to fail, fail fast and move on.” He stressed on the need of being adaptable, have genuine concern for others, and develop a personal network.
He shared his life journey from his school days to his current position as an AGM in UltraTech cement limited to demonstrate how important an institute can be and advised to opt for the fundamental courses such as mechanical engineering, computer science engineering, and undergraduate programs.
Overall, it was an enlightening and interactive session and helped the students understand the real world.
