Subroto Bagchi@MindTree Consulting

Posted by Manik Kinra on November 25, 2006

Great Lakers were priveliged to attend a guest lecture, organised by CII and in collaboration with CBS, of Mr. Subroto Bagchi – COO and Co – Founder, MindTree Consulting. The Lecture was on his latest book “The Hi Performance Entrepreneur”.

The Conversation lasted for around 1.5 hours and was a truly wonderful one. Even for a person like who doesnt carry any aspirations of becoming an entreprenuer, the lecture was an enlightining one. He showed clippings of his interviews with Ms. Kiran Mazumdar Shaw – Biocon, Capt. Gopinath – Deccan Aviation, and Mr Siddharta – Coffee Day. With wonderful insights on the topic, and amazing discussion amongst the speaker and audience – this for sure was one of the best lecture
