He's also a champion of sustainable development, having led UN work groups defining corporate metrics for Sustainable Development Goals.Spoiler alert: That knowledge you're protecting isn't as proprietary as you think—and hoarding it might be the very thing keeping you from growing.Tan reveals why learning at the speed of change is the only way to stay relevant, how upskilling existing employees delivers faster ROI than external hiring, and the three-pillar framework (education, engagement, exposure) that builds true competence. Plus, he shares the career-defining moment when a failed proposal taught him that content without communication means lost opportunities.What We Cover:The proposal that changed everything – How losing a client deal due to poor communication skills sparked Tan's transformation into a lifelong learner and eventually led him to share a stage with Steve BallmerWhy comfort zones are career killers – The counterintuitive move from a successful business role into corporate HR that everyone warned against, and why it opened doors Tan never imaginedThe three pillars of competence – Breaking down how knowledge, skills, and attitude combine through education, engagement, and exposure to create lasting workforce transformationLearning at the speed of change – Why continuous learning isn't about getting ahead anymore—it's about staying in the same place you are nowThe upskilling advantage over external hiring – How investing in people who already know your systems, culture, and ecosystem delivers immediate productivity versus the ramp-up time new hires requireWhy knowledge hoarding backfires – The fundamental truth that if you don't share what you know, someone else will—and why giving more means getting more in returnMentorship as a two-way street – How working with Gen Z employees (or any generation different from yours) creates peer-to-peer learning that benefits both sides equallyThe innovation power of different perspectives – Why surrounding yourself with people who think like you guarantees stagnation, and how diverse viewpoints spark breakthrough ideasBuilding elastic teams that bend without breaking – How creating learning ecosystems helps organizations adapt through pandemics, economic shifts, elections, and technological disruptionKey Quote: "You've got to learn at the speed of change for you to stay in the same place that you are, let alone to run." – Tan MoorthyConnect with Tan Moorthy: LinkedIn: Tan Moorthy Company: RevatureConnect with Traci here: https://linktr.ee/HRTraciDisclaimer: Thoughts, opinions, and statements made on this podcast are not a reflection of the thoughts, opinions, and statements of the Company by whom Traci Chernoff is actively employed.Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products or services.

India's technology story is at a crossroads — from America's visa games and rising protectionism, to India's own challenges with innovation, policy, and capital. In this hard-hitting conversation, veteran investor and public intellectual Mohandas Pai joins us to decode what it all means for India's future. Pai explains why America's tech dominance rests on Indian talent, why shutting doors will only hurt the US, and how India must shift from being the world's “IT back office” to building deep-tech companies at scale. We discuss the brain drain myth, the real capital bottlenecks, and why India's policies often stifle rather than support entrepreneurs. Along the way, he pulls no punches — calling out “cyber coolie” stereotypes, broken tax and justice systems, and the culture of harassment that keeps India from unleashing its true potential. Yet, he remains optimistic: confident that with the right reforms, India can dream big and reach a $10 trillion economy by 2035. This episode is a no-holds-barred dive into India's place in the global tech order, and the choices that will decide whether we remain a service hub or become an innovation powerhouse. ⸻ Chapters 00:00 – Intro & Hook: America's Tech Runs on India 01:01 – The H-1B Visa Debate: Myth vs Reality 04:20 – Indian Talent Powering US Companies 07:45 – Why “Make America Great Again” Could Backfire 10:15 – Will Indians Really Return?

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint.. I'm Nelson John and here are today's top stories. Infosys is launching its largest-ever buyback, repurchasing shares worth ₹18,000 crore at a 19% premium. The move matches TCS's record buyback but covers a bigger slice of equity, signalling confidence after a 20% stock slump this year. Analysts say it's a clear sign the stock is undervalued, even as the IT sector battles slowing growth and cautious investors. PM Mark Carney announced Canada will cap temporary residents, including foreign students, at under 5% of the population by 2027. Already, Indian students are reeling — four out of five faced rejections this quarter, with study permits dropping 66% year-on-year. The cuts reflect anti-immigrant sentiment and pressure on housing and jobs, reshaping Canada's image as a top study hub. Donald Trump's pick for US ambassador to India, Sergio Gor, told senators a trade deal with New Delhi could be sealed “within weeks.” He credited Trump's personal friendship with PM Modi for keeping talks alive despite earlier tensions over Russian oil. The plan: deepen defence ties, push big-ticket arms sales, and double trade to $500 billion by 2030. In the West Bank, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu bluntly declared: “There will never be a Palestinian state.” He signed off on the $1 billion E1 settlement project, a move critics say could kill the two-state solution. The announcement, coming days after Israel's strike attempt on Hamas leaders in Qatar, risks isolating Israel further as some Western nations weigh recognising Palestine at the UN.

A version of this essay has been published by firstpost.com at https://www.firstpost.com/opinion/shadow-warrior-zohran-mamdani-and-the-coming-crisis-for-hindus-in-america-13908482.htmlI have long felt the Deep State works on a single playbook in its foreign policy: regime-change, or what is colloquially called ‘Color Revolutions'. It is a simple routine: in some remote country, declare the ruling dispensation to be mad dogs, and shoot them, metaphorically if not in reality. Anoint a ‘friend' as the new chief. All hail to him/her! The pliant media goes along.There have been innumerable such plays all over the world, and most of the time, the results have been bad to disastrous for the country in question. Just look at Ukraine, Iraq, Libya, and Syria for recent examples. Iran, too, when Mossadegh was toppled because of, what else, oil: BP was annoyed at him for nationalizing Iranian oil.As an aside, I have wondered why Deep State did not orchestrate a color revolution against the Nehru Dynasty. On the face of it, there were plenty of reasons to do so: Jawaharlal's embrace of the Soviet Union, Indira's defiance regarding East Pakistan, and so on. So why didn't they topple the Dynasty and install a puppet, as they did with Mohammed Yunus in Bangladesh?Maybe India was just too unimportant. Or maybe, just maybe, the Nehru Dynasty was in fact the Deep State puppet already in place. Was Jawaharlal hand-picked, and didn't even know?So is Zohran Mamdani's rise the first Color Revolution in the US? A friend claimed that it wasn't, and that Barack Obama was the first. That is a debatable point, but one could argue that Obama 1 & 2, and Obama 3 (Biden's term) were the worst presidencies in US history.While there have been many good opinion pieces written about Mamdani's rise and rise, for instance by Jaggi and Avatans Kumar, I would like to focus on the broader implications of what Deep State might achieve by rolling out a Color Revolution in its own backyard. It's one thing to mess up a far-off country, and entirely a different thing to screw up your own premier city. This is a high-risk (and presumably high-return) strategy for Deep State.Of course, the UK Deep State (aka Whitehall) may well be leading the US Deep State by the nose. I called it a “master-blaster” relationship, hat tip to Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. This color revolution possibility is not something I invented out of thin air, I give due credit to, among others, San for noting this possibility, along with many other unusual things about the Mamdani campaign, including its connection to Soros, as well as the uncompromising religious bigotry and use of dog-whistles against, for instance, Jews and Hindus. So Zohran Mamdani is worth watching, and so is his father, Columbia Professor Mamdani, who wrote something alarming in his 2004 book Good Muslim, Bad Muslim: America, the Cold War, and the Roots of Terror: see an excerpt below that seems to justify suicide bombing as a tactic. Of course, he may just have been doing an academic analysis, and surely, what the father said cannot be attributed to the son, but we can wonder about early influences on Zohran.Beyond the personal proclivities of the man and family, there is a mixture of Islamist radicalism and extreme-left radicalism in Zohran Mamdani's background. Some have called his rise a victory for the Red-Green Alliance, which is of significance to India, because here too we have often seen such a combination in play. Besides, it's notable that Mamdani has never said a word about atrocities committed on Hindus in Pakistan/Bangladesh or even in India, though he's quick to make up atrocity literature alleging “Gujarati Muslims have been wiped out” in India. About 10 million Gujarati Muslims may like to differ. Amazingly, the very people whom Mamdani is supposed to be emancipating, the underclass blacks and other low-income residents of NYC, did not vote for him. His victory in the Democratic primary came from young, well-off whites and “Asians” (the same Asians as in the UK?), and unions. That itself is telling. The bigger question, though, is how this relates to the eclipse of the West. I take the UK as Exhibit A. There was a recent article in the Economist magazine about how Britain is now a cheap country. In other words, the per capita income has fallen, and British assets are valued low, because there is a general perception of malaise, partly because manufacturing has collapsed.The headline is precious. It reminds me of the subtitle to Stanley Kubrik's “Dr Strangelove: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb”. Right on, cheers, tally-ho!It was hugely entertaining to also listen to an Economist podcast which suggested that a “services-led economy” would be the UK's savior. Raghuram Rajan, take a bow. Necessity being the mother of invention, I suppose. There is not a single product of British manufacturing that anybody wants (with the possible exception of Rolls-Royce aircraft engines). They were able to dump their inferior goods on defenseless colonies (read: India) but those days are over.They are now apparently depending on services (e.g., their journalism, which, with its clipped accents, impresses Americans, but is available to the highest bidder. The word “Presstitutes” leaps to mind). In addition, IT services, it seems, given their convenient time zone. And cheap IT labor. Yes, direct threat to India. Wipro, Infosys, TCS, I am sure are paralyzed with fear. The UK is, in many ways, the canary in the coalmine. Its precipitous decline is related to the fact that it is a small island off northwest Asia, whereas of course the US is a continent-sized country with massive resources. But the other factors: the previous holder of the global reserve currency, the previous dominant superpower, etc., are relevant to the US.To be honest, I have no idea what the UK's elites are thinking, because their current trajectory is going to end in disaster. As I have said before, they have fancied themselves as dealmakers extraordinaire, with Whitehall leading the world in mischief. But they were too clever by half: their homeland is collapsing. I don't mind, it's schadenfreude time, but I wonder what 3-d chess they are playing. I wonder if the US Deep State has a clue that the US could end up like the UK. The one thing that has sustained the UK in the last few decades is their financial services. But with the LIBOR scandal and Brexit, that game is also moving on: to Frankfurt, Singapore, Dubai (and eventually I guess GIFT City, India). The City of London, the name of the financial district, has been decimated. This is a warning to Wall Street in New York City.Another warning comes from California in general, and San Francisco in particular. Once the most appealing of American cities, it has been turned into a fetid, dangerous place full of yes, “street-shitters” and fentanyl addicts. The main culprit has been rule by left-wing extremists who put in place the ingredients for terminal decline: for instance, a moratorium on prosecuting any property crimes worth less than $950, which led to the hollowing out of retail downtown.I am not saying New York City is a pleasant place especially compared to what San Francisco was (I lived for a long time in the suburbs of both, so I have personal experience) but there is surely a lot that can go wrong with socialism of the Mamdani variety. Exhibits A, B, C: Venezuela, Cuba, etc. What is of more immediate concern to Hindus is that the US will become more dangerous for them. As it is, the amount of racial hatred and animosity towards brown Hindus has grown perceptibly, aided by social media ‘influencers' who are likely paid by ISI/CCP/Deep State. There is also the element of envy, as Hindus have risen to high positions, mostly by way of hard work and smarts. In analogy with Jews, this envy can turn into poisonous bigotry. We have seen how Kristallnachts develop. And then Final Solutions. The UK has seen, along with the growth of its Muslim population (“demography is destiny”) a concomitant level of animosity and violence against Hindus: see Leicester; and the British establishment is so afraid of Muslims that they will not take any steps to curb their acts. This is leading to clear and present danger for Hindus. We have seen this movie before.In addition to the increasing animosity towards H1-B holding Indians, who are predominantly Hindus, a victory for Zohran Mamdani will basically make it clear to US Hindus that their days are numbered, and that the US may rapidly follow the UK into societal and economic collapse. It's a sobering thought. Do we have a Plan B?1330 words, 15 Jul 2025 This is a public episode.

Just last year, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang sat across from Mukesh Ambani at the company's first-ever AI summit in India.Dressed in his trademark black leather jacket, Huang addressed a packed room of tech founders, policymakers, and academics. He made a bold prediction: India, long known for exporting software, will soon be exporting AI.But this wasn't just another keynote. It was a power play.At the same event, Nvidia and Reliance announced a major partnership to build AI infrastructure in India -- everything from data centers to foundational models. And Reliance wasn't alone. Nvidia also inked deals with Infosys, Tata, Tech Mahindra, and Flipkart.This episode dives into why Nvidia is betting big on India, how that fits into India's own messy AI ambitions, and what's really at stake when a $4 trillion company becomes a country's AI backbone.Tune in. *Correction: In the episode, it was mentioned that TCS has 50,000 AI-trained engineers. We'd like to clarify that the accurate figure is that over 1,14,000 TCS associates have been trained in higher-order AI skills.  Want to attend The Ken's next event—How AI is Breaking and Remaking the Way Products are Built?

Microsoft, Amazon, Google, GS, JP Morgan Chase, Deloitte, Walmart, Bosch, Adobe, Target, Salesforce, AstraZeneca.What's common to these dozen organisations? Other than the fact that they are, well, large, well-respected and innovative?They all operate their own development and innovation centres in India. Often sprawling campuses and offices across multiple cities, filled with Indian engineers, project managers, product experts, designers, HR, finance and, well, virtually every function that's required to run a business.They're called GCCs. Global Capability Centres.There are over 1,000 global organisations that collectively operate over 1,700 GCCs across India. They employ over 2 million professionals. They generate over $40 billion in annual value, set to surpass $100 billion in another five years.So, what's the problem?Well, most GCCs are technically doing work that could have been outsourced to Indian outsourcers like Infosys, TCS, Wipro, HCL, etc. In fact, GCCs are so successful a strategy that they're growing much faster than Indian outsourcers.And as if taking away potential revenue from Indian outsourcers weren't enough, GCCs are now also taking away talent. That's right. They're hiring experienced and talented professionals using higher salaries, better brands and the promise of better work.It appears to be a zero-sum game. A pie that isn't growing.Both our guests for today's episode are experts on GCCs, and they had a lot to say about the same. Our first guest is Narayana Ramamurthy, whom you'll hear us address as ‘Naru' throughout the discussion. Naru is the founder and CEO of Workfutr, a company which enables US and European organisations to harness India's offshore capability in technology, operations, and transformation. And our second guest is Karthik Padmanabhan, who is the managing partner for GCCs at Zinnow, a global management and consulting firm founded in 2002 that partners and advises global enterprises, outsourcers, PE firms around AI, automation, outsourcing and well, GCCs.Welcome to episode 49 of Two by Two.-Additional reading:ANSR's Ahuja duo on why “everybody, from Victoria's Secret to Google, will do pretty much the same thing in India” - https://the-ken.com/story/ansrs-ahuja-duo-on-why-everybody-from-victorias-secret-to-google-will-do-pretty-much-the-same-thing-in-india/GCCs could pose a potential threat to Indian IT - https://analyticsindiamag.com/gcc/gccs-could-pose-a-potential-threat-to-indian-it/-This episode of Two by Two was produced by Hari Krishna.

Unsere beiden heutigen Gäste sind Gründer, Produktstrategen und leidenschaftliche Technologen, mit einem klaren Ziel: die Kundenkommunikation mit Hilfe von Künstlicher Intelligenz grundlegend neu zu denken. Der eine studierte an der WHU, an der University of Texas und in Shanghai, gründete bereits ein eigenes Start-up im Creator-Tech-Bereich und arbeitete bei Roland Berger, Infosys und Enpal. Was ihn auszeichnet: ein tiefes Verständnis für digitale Geschäftsmodelle und der Wille, komplexe Technologien so zu gestalten, dass sie echten Mehrwert schaffen. Der andere absolvierte seinen Bachelor in Computer Science an der Stanford University und startete dort auch einen Master, den er zur Hälfte abschloss, um sich ganz dem Unternehmertum zu widmen. Nach Stationen bei N26, BCG Digital Ventures, Circ und zuletzt als Software Engineer und Product Manager bei Pitch ist er heute Co-Founder und CTO von telli. Seine Schwerpunkte: künstliche Intelligenz, Human-Computer-Interaction und der Brückenschlag zwischen Technologie und Nutzererlebnis. Mit ihrem gemeinsamen Unternehmen telli entwickeln sie eine KI-gestützte Lösung, die es Unternehmen ermöglicht, ihre gesamte Kundenkommunikation über ein intelligentes System zu führen: automatisiert, empathisch und effizient. Ihr Ziel ist es, das Kundenerlebnis neu zu definieren und Menschen in Unternehmen zu entlasten, indem repetitive Kommunikationsaufgaben künftig von einer digitalen Instanz übernommen werden können. Seit über acht Jahren beschäftigen wir uns in diesem Podcast mit der Frage, wie Arbeit den Menschen stärkt, statt ihn zu schwächen. In fast 500 Gesprächen mit über 600 Menschen haben wir darüber gesprochen, was sich für sie geändert hat und was sich noch ändern muss. Was passiert mit Kundenbeziehungen, wenn Künstliche Intelligenz zum ersten Ansprechpartner wird? Wie gelingt es, technologische Effizienz mit menschlicher Empathie zu verbinden und ist das überhaupt möglich? Und was heißt „New Work“ in einer Zukunft, in der Kommunikation zunehmend automatisiert, aber dennoch bedeutungsvoll bleiben soll? Fest steht: Für die Lösung unserer aktuellen Herausforderungen brauchen wir neue Impulse. Und darum suchen wir weiter nach Methoden, Vorbildern, Erfahrungen, Tools und Ideen, die uns dem Kern von New Work näherbringen. Darüber hinaus beschäftigt uns von Anfang an die Frage, ob wirklich alle Menschen das finden und leben können, was sie im Innersten wirklich, wirklich wollen. Ihr seid bei On the Way to New Work, heute mit Finn zur Mühlen und Seb Hapte-Selassie von telli.

Co-hosts Michael LeBlanc and Steve Dennis return from ShopTalk brimming with insights on the rapidly shifting retail environment. They kick off by breaking down the rollercoaster of consumer confidence, spurred by persistent inflation and ongoing uncertainty. The conversation touches on potential reverberations from looming tariffs that could drive up costs and shake consumer sentiment.

With the newly launched MyLow application, shoppers can receive instant project advice, seamless product recommendations, and integrated how-to guidance. For professionals, speed, in-stock reliability, and tailored credit remain top priorities.Nair emphasizes that data and AI make up only 30% of the equation, with the remaining 70% tied to organizational change and process reengineering. The discussion highlights Lowe's approach to fostering innovation: start small, iterate quickly, and focus on core customer needs rather than novelty for novelty's sake. In addition, immersive experiences such as the Lowe's Style Studio for Apple Vision Pro build on years of research and strategic experimentation.
