Another week and another conversation straight from the CXO series! I’m in conversation with MJ Rakesh, The Mic Jockey or (now retired) Prof Ulfat Sultan on Bangalore radio. Switching from customer support in corporate to the world of performing arts of many kinds, Rakesh takes us through the introspection of careers, speaking from his own roller coaster journey. This episode is a masterclass on what not to miss about aligning vision with purpose.
His electric and eclectic energy comes from his personality’s core ability to internalise his value proposition. He tells how and why that can pay off in more ways than one and also reaffirms positive perspectives on money, competition and success, the kind that takes you higher without belittling others’ journeys. Talking about his Bigg Boss stint, he elaborates on his beliefs and opinions about having a career with a purpose and people's perceptions.
With self-awareness as his strength, he brings a very unique POV to the table, one that differed from mine but got me thinking with attention to the nuances. We talk about retrospection and reinvention, celebrating small wins and going beyond titles.
If you’re evaluating and questioning the need to fit in, Rakesh will get you thinking harder about breaking standards and setting your own. "There cannot be a better version of you than you yourself" - Tune in to listen to the full episode.
