#LeadersSpeak—a series that uncovers the insights and philosophies of remarkable leaders.
In the third feature of this series, Shashank Sharma, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Sunsure Energy, shares his take on what it truly means to lead. Leadership, he believes, is a choice—one that comes with sacrifices and demands resilience. For the leaders of tomorrow, trust, adaptability, and the ability to navigate complexity are key.
When evaluating leadership potential, Shashank looks for four traits: high emotional intelligence, social intelligence, intellectual capacity, and most importantly, a strong adversity quotient—the ability to thrive under challenging circumstances. Leadership today also requires the ability to learn, unlearn, and relearn to adapt to an ever-changing, complex world.

At our roundtable discussion in Bangalore on 'Winning the Digital Tax Transformation Race: Overcoming Challenges and Building Success in India,' powered by Thomson Reuters, Ramana Babu Kotha, Director Finance, Subex, shared a key takeaway: tax transformation is inevitable, but it must be preceded by finance transformation as the foundational step.
He highlighted the need for automating last-mile processes, an area where many organizations still rely on outdated methods like Excel-based or manual calculations. He further emphasized the importance of addressing this gap, noting that tax departments are already advancing rapidly in technology adoption, particularly with AI-driven data transformation. To stay aligned, organizations must prioritize integrating similar innovations into their processes and embrace technology adoption to keep pace.

One name that could be attached to the word "legend" would be Anil Kumble.
The recent conversation with the ‘Jumbo’ was nothing short of spectacular. From his powerful anecdotes to the interactive Q&A session, the energy in the room was electric.
On team building he said, since you can’t change the skill of a player, the mindset becomes the most critical factor. The most important thing, as a leader, is not to lead every decision, but to create an environment where decisions are driven by collective effort, adapting to challenges and putting the game above all else. The strength of a team, he stressed, lies in its preparation and its ability to embrace challenges as a unit.
On success and failures, his advice was simple yet profound: “Analyze your wins, celebrate your losses.” Additionally, he touched upon his personal life philosophy, sharing that he never saw cricket as the be-all, end-all, and encouraged everyone to nurture interests outside of their field of work.
This session left all of us with powerful lessons on leadership, teamwork, and the sort of mindset required to overcome adversity. Anil Kumble's approach—centered on resilience, preparation and complete dedication toward the success of the team—resonated with everyone, offering wisdom for leaders in any field.
