DPS-MIS alumnus offers insight on 'planning for future'

DPS Modern Indian School alumnus Govind Haridas, from the Class of 2008, enlightened a gathering of 200 students virtually on the topic ‘Planning for your future in a strange VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity) World.’

The webinar was a part of the ‘Alumni Talk Series’, a platform that connects the alumni with the alma mater. Haridas debunked the myth that "once a failure, always a failure" in his interactive session, explaining that "life is a marathon, not a sprint," and “if you have to fail, fail fast and move on.” He stressed on the need of being adaptable, have genuine concern for others, and to develop a personal network.He shared his life journey from his school days to his current position as an AGM in UltraTech Cement in India, to demonstrate how important an institute can be and advised to opt for the fundamental courses such as mechanical engineering, computer science engineering, and undergraduate programmes.
