What India Traffic Taught Me

I’ve walked, taxied and driven in most major US cities. I’ve experienced my fair share of NYC cab rides and Chicago traffic jams. None of this prepared me for moving about in India. Here’s what it was like and what I learned from it.

Challenges

The Facilitation Challenge

The Challenge – Facilitate a one hour session to identify group values and begin to shape a future vision. No problem, except that 45 of the participants only spoke Tamil and I only speak English.

What I Take for Granted

Returning to the US after 2 weeks in Southern India gave me fresh eyes – both for what I take for granted and for what is missing from my life in the US. Read on for my list… including the one that made my “take for granted” list 4 times.

Intention

The 1% Question

I’ve just spent two days in Rocky Mountain National Park. What totally shocked me was this statistic.

Last week I had the chance to attend a 3 day workshop on Lean LaunchPad at Stanford, in which I learned the latest thinking on how to successfully launch a new business. Even if you are not an entrepreneur, there are great lessons for anyone navigating today’s fluid environment.
