Swiggy's Rohit Kapoor on learning from unconventional mentors
There's a hack that Rohit Kapoor swears by—doing things right the first time. It is something he picked up during his school days in Kolkata, where he was all ears in the classroom to grasp as much of the lesson as he could.
"I didn’t want to revise things later and spend inordinate hours preparing for examinations. It is something which helps even today. To be able to do multiple things well, one must give undivided attention to the task at hand in order to reduce unnecessary churn," says Gurugram-based Kapoor, 51, CEO, Food Marketplace, Swiggy Ltd.
When Kapoor took on his role in 2022, he faced the challenge of managing growth amid intense competition. Within a year, the food marketplace turned profitable and today operates across 700 cities, while also creating employment for their delivery partners.
