About this episode

We tend to forget that leadership is highly contextual and if we were to apply it from one context to another, without changing perspectives, it may not work.

Host Surbhi Dedhia talks to Dr. Karuna Ramanthan in this episode about how leaders can master the art of influence by decoding their organisational narratives and how this can in-turn help to build their thought leadership.

Dr. Karuna has an established track record, gained over nearly 3 decades, in supporting Senior Leaders and Organisations through difficult transformations, increasingly in middle manager execution challenges, and in values, people and culture change.

With his rich experience and illustrious background in the Singapore military forces, the episode goes over:

1. How being in Military allowed Dr. Karuna to decode deep rooted knowledge of leadership.

2. Why leadership is contextual and how can one identify with different perspectives.

3. Why organisations must tap into the middle level managers and educate them about the power of influence.

4. We should move from being accidental to being intentional in our lives and create opportunities for us.

5. Artificial intelligence is here and while the future of work is still a mystery, building intentional thought leadership will be a competitive advantage.

The discussion is replete with examples and offers ideas to apply in our daily lives.
