The next billionaire

Unfiltered and real ... • 1y

The IIT Delhi 2005 and 2006 batches are known to produce superlative entrepreneurs, from Flipkart co-founders Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal to the founder of Snapdeal, Rohit Bansal; Zomato founder Deepinder Goyal; and the founder of Blinkit, Albinder Dhindsa-all of whom have built businesses over $50 billion in India's vibrant startup ecosystem. Notably, the alumni include Sundar Pichai who is now the CEO of Google, or Sharmistha Dubey who was the first female CEO of Match Group, the parent company to Tinder and OkCupid, in this impressive list. Such icons are not born in a vacuum but instead in a group setting. A good peer influence helps develop an identity, makes decisions, locate opportunities, and gets essential feedback. For the IIT Delhi alumni, they were graduating at the moment India was ready to take up e-commerce, an industry that would blossom into a $200 billion sector. This class of graduates seized the moment and made it a thriving reality. In today's interdependent world, your network is a reflection of your potential. The presence of ambitious and innovative people around you can help unlock doors and opportunities that otherwise may go unnoticed. Further, research studies indicate that a good network aids in making better decisions and strengthens resilience. Diverse groups of people are said to spur creativity and innovation, bringing forth pioneering ideas and solutions. In a nutshell, building and strengthening a good network is not only useful but necessary for any person who wishes to bring about a change in the working world.
