Seagull once said yes to more than just branding. Pitch decks. Funding help. GTM strategy. It felt like growth, but it cost us clarity, team focus, and trust. Lesson:.Don’t stray from your core. Clarity is strength. Focus is a moat. #inspiringmonday #leadershipmindset #growth

Finishing work on time is expected. But staying relevant? That takes passion, persistence, and the willingness to go beyond delivery. #StayingRelevant. Check out my latest article: Why is Amitabh Bachchan still India’s leading actor at 82? .via @LinkedIn.

Read my full article on my thoughts on this advice I still deeply believe in:

The two best advice I got in B-school had nothing to do with business plans. 1. Choose your boss, not your company. 2. Own the roof over your head as soon as you can. Decades later, both still hold. What lesson from your early career still stays with you?.

Peace isn't "out there," it's how you carry your day. Through daily practices like meditation & mindfulness, you can find calm amidst the chaos, no matter where you are. #InspiringMondays #SameerDesai #Thought #Leadership

Sometimes history doesn’t arrive in silence; it comes dressed as a threat. That’s what US President.@realDonaldTrump 's 50% tariff on Indian goods is. It’s not punishment, but a provocation - a challenge disguised as an insult. And if seen clearly, it's a gift & India’s Moment😃.

The true measure of a nation isn’t just its GDP. #India’s strength comes from every child learning, every dreamer working, every leader serving beyond politics. Let’s build an India that uplifts all, inspires the future, and puts people first. 🇮🇳 #Leadership #PMModi #ProudIndian.

The real depth of the need of a startup's product/ service can only be ascertained when the magnitude and market potential of the idea shows success. And every day, our country becomes a highly conducive environment for entrepreneurial ideas. (6/6).

Finally, I'd like to point out a unique startup in India- Lenskart. Their idea had not been done before in the mainstream market. Hence, they captured a niche need in the market - the need for trendy, fashion-friendly glasses that were easy on the pocket. (5/6).

Ola is a company that is not exactly unique - it took its business model from Uber and adapted it to the Indian market. However, they did swoop in at a time where they understood the market's demand for safe & convenient intercity travel, with hassle-free payment. (4/6).

Flipkart is a startup that opened up new horizons for eCommerce in India. They made online shopping mainstream and paved the way for a lot of other players to come in and create niche markets. (3/6).

Paytm is a great place to start. With the advent of technology entering the financial landscape, Paytm entered with a new opportunity. To make transactions convenient. They recognized the need of Indian consumers who find cash payments a hassle and provided a solution. (2/6).

I believe a startup idea is strong if it satisfies a pre-existing need in the current market. Even better if it creates a need; this drives new business. (1/6).
