Thirty-two years ago, N.K. Chaudhary was young, restless and quite without direction. He had just finished college and had started work in his father’s shoe shop in Churu, Rajasthan. But he wasn’t happy.
“I started attending lectures and seminars. I would listen to talks delivered by successful people,” he says. He read management books. He did a lot of introspection and tried to identify his behavioural traits that were impediments in the growth of the organisation. He discovered, for instance, that wherever he was ineffective at work, his ego was to blame. “I started looking at others in ways that I could search for their inner talents,” he says. And he realised that even illiterate people had a lot of talent. He started mentoring them — for instance, he would spend an hour a day with his store supervisor, a semi-literate man, and coach him on various aspects such as how he to handle subordinates.

on Sep 24, 2009Mr. Chaudhary is indeed a fantastic Business Architect. A great entrepreneur who has generated a lot of employment opportunities, wealth and ideas! And yes, an MBA degree is not always a sine qua non for achieving phenomenal success because it is not as though important Life Lessons are always taught at B-schools only! Thanks and regards, Geetha
