In a world racing towards AI, tech, and automation, it’s art and culture that will keep us human.
A powerful reminder from one of India’s most respected business leaders, Anand Mahindra, who believes that embracing the arts doesn’t distract from success; it deepens it.
After finishing school in India, Mahindra first went to Harvard to pursue filmmaking and architecture, before completing his MBA at Harvard Business School.
This blend of creativity and business shaped his ability to think laterally, empathise deeply, and navigate uncertainty — exactly the skills every leader needs in the 21st century.
So yes, learn to code. But also visit a museum.
Get that degree. But also pick up a paintbrush.
Because creativity isn’t a luxury — it’s a leadership skill.
[Happy Birthday Anand Mahindra, leadership, business leader, art, Education]
