Commenting on the event, Ajay Kumar, Founder & CEO of Cognigix  said, “The Forces are an epitome of selfless courage and devotion to the nation; and are the best teachers of word class management. It’s time we pay our tribute to them and learn some of the invaluable lessons. We firmly believe that this virtual conference is a way to redefine the way leadership is imagined. It would help us be better prepared for adversities in the future. We invite all to be a part of path-breaking approaches of these leaders that have held a catastrophic calamity at bay.”

 

The businesses and the public at large were not well prepared for this drastic calamity. In this difficult scenario, the forces took necessary action within no time, to reduce spread of the virus. They lost hundreds of lives in their duty to the nation, yet they have continued to serve the citizens with the same valour. The common public and the business community both have a lot of important and effective leadership lessons to learn from the decisions and the strategies that these leaders of the forces employed.

Attendees can expect to learn from the first-hand experiences narrated by these brave hearts and try and implement these foolproof strategies of decision making in their professional and personal lives. Right from young learners to industry stalwarts all can benefit from such a unique opportunity and it is this hope of a better world that drives us to take such initiatives.
