BACK IN 2019 and before the lockdown gripped us, I had the pleasure
of interacting with Mahindra Group Chairman Anand Mahindra and
discussing the muted growth of the Indian economy and the challenges of
the uncertain world as evident then. Every bit the charismatic personality
he is known to be, Mr Mahindra has the rare calibre of being able to not
only make a conversation most engaging but also draw attention to issues
that may appear large and distant but impact us as a country in the most
granular way. His philosophy of People + Planet = Profits, articulated aptly
in the single word ‘Rise’, inspire many.
