Whether you're interested in business, retail, or simply the story of an inspiring individual, this episode is for you! Tune in and be prepared to be captivated by the story of "This Happened in India." Bonus: Share your thoughts on the episode with us on social media! #GalataPodcast #KishoreBiyani #IndianRetail List of books mentioned: Want to buy paperbacks of them all? Here's Kishore Biyani's Book recommendation wish list It Happened In India: The Story of Pantaloons, Big Bazaar, Central and the Great Indian Consumer “I have also read my fair share of autobiographies written by foreign and Indian entrepreneurs. But no book strikes me more than Verghese Kurien's autobiography, I Too Had a Dream . Kurien's story is of a genuine Indian folk hero. Sam Walton : Made In America “ I couldn't help but get inspired by Sam Walton, the iconic founder of the chain. I have learned some of the most enduring lessons of business from a heavily underlined and dog-eared copy of the classic Made in America .” “A book I would like to recommend to everyone is Stephen Covey's The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. It provides a step-by-step framework for living and working, based on some fundamental principles or natural laws.” “ Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist and Richard Bach's Jonathan Livingstone Seagull have inspired many of us within the organisation and helped us achieve what others thought impossible” “Another equally motivating book is Anthony Robbins' Awaken the Giant Within . It explores how every human being can live up to their true potential." Further recommended readings: “Among my favourites is Howard Schultz's Pour Your Heart Into It: How Starbucks Built a Company One Cup at a Time . Schultz proved that it is simplicity and passion coupled with a spirit of innovation that lies at the root of creating a great consumer experience. There are other equally fascinating books written on retailers like Bernie Marcus and Arthur Blank's How a Couple of Regular Guys Grew The Home Depot from Nothing to $30 billion ; lngvar Kamprad's Leading By Design: The IKEA Story ;and Marvin Traub's Like No Other Store; The Bloomingdale's Legend and Revolution in American Marketing.” “Peters' books, A Passion for Excellence and Re-Imagine are both provocative and inspiring. The thought process with which we are today building our organisation is in fact quite similar to that of Tom Peters.”…

Sometimes I walk down the aisle of a bookstore and stumble upon a book that draws me in…once I open it, I just can’t keep it back! Maybe it was the bearded gentleman on the cover with a welcoming smile or the outright audacious title or the index. Yes, it was the index that stirred something in me. I thought this man must be crazy! But that’s how I stumbled upon “Let me hijack your mind” at Sapna book house on a chilly Bangalore evening last winter. Very unusual…no? Oh! Wait, there’s more. The book was not easy to read because it made me feel so uncomfortable! Though I felt deeply inspired by Alyque Padamsee‘s extraordinary contributions in so many domains, especially advertising and theatre. The ideas, arguments and questions being asked to me in the book shook my intellectual foundation of everything all at once! Still, this ended up being my most highlighted, scribbled-on-the-margins, messy doodled book. Well, Life sent me a reward when I found out that Vandana Saxena Poria, the coauthor would be speaking in Bangalore so I made sure I attended it. She was a bundle of energy, welcoming and had so much to share. When I went up to her after the talk…we vibed instantly! I did this interview soon after and I am excited to share it with you. Please, enjoy our conversation.

#55: 5 Powerful WhatsApp Hacks To 10X Your Productivity! 21:49

4 years ago21:49

21:49

Episode Notes: Touch it once - only when you are ready to deal with it. if needed tilt the phone and read further to decide but touch only when ready to act upon it. Schedule WhatsApp time in your daily planner/agenda and use it ONLY then. Allow your messages to stack! Silent all notifications, sounds except for WhatsApp calls. No to WhatsApp first thing in the morning, the last thing in the night, seeing stories during lunch and check in every 3rd minute. Organize to make Whatapp work for you. Name saving tip - Add things you can recall. Like: W1- Shree Balaji - Xprof Pes, Made Cement clock, Met at Sheraton night market. W2- Priyanka Ref: Ankit's Aunt that makes yum chocolate stuff W3 - Curious cat Rishabh - Mandya Sangh Broadcast list Prefix - W1, W2, W3 Use label feature - A, B, C, D, Followup. - Create more and experiment based on your business. Go to the most important labels FIRST during the scheduled time. NOT the recent messages stacked on top. Exit toxic, distracting, directionless groups - will it hurt to exit this group? almost always the answer is NO. so, let go and exit. Archive random forwards, unimportant messages or anything that isn’t relevant to you. block persistent broadcasters. Communication chain for productivity - Text > audio note > Call > Physical meet For smarter texting: Anticipate a person's questions/ concerns/ objections and address them in a single message. Reinforce your systems using forward slash shortcuts. Here's a sample to ensure every call I get has a clear agenda: /agenda1 That sounds doable. So I can best prepare for our interaction, can you send me a note with an agenda? That is, the topics and questions we’ll need to address? That would be great. Thanks in advance. /agenda2 To make the best use of everyone’s time I like to have a well-defined agenda with objectives for a call before jumping on the phone. Can you please send over some bullet points with what you’d like to cover and decide on the call? Thanks in advance. Marketing to your HOT market: Use the status feature strategically and consistently to become a part of your hot market's routine. Create a separate status for links and use a green background (converts better) Limit statuses of your products to 5. followed by a link to your catalogue on WB. Ask for support (even to test your network's willingness to help) Few more hacks: Back up all devices to another system on the first of every month. Build a catalogue slowly and consistently of any service or product you provide. Turn off the auto-download of photos and videos. P.S.: Galata's new website is on its way.…

Mahaveer Shiyal is the founder of Megawatts Electric company. He is an ardent follower of the principles of Lord Mahaveer. Has overcome a lot of challenges in his life by following the simple principles of Jainism. For him any religion is not just words or scriptures, It is a way of life. How one lives 24 hours is religion. He has always given top priority to living a life of values and following those values no matter what the situation is. He is humble, thought-provoking and a respected individual in the business fraternity and the Marwadi community. This episode is a blend of English, Hindi and a bit of Marwadi. We speak about how to ethically build a lasting business, Jain principles that you can use, reducing your ego, why our staffs are our sahayogis, better negotiating, encashing goodwill, big fat Marwadi weddings, handling money, the surprising benefit of sacrifice and much more!
