During my research on the subject I came across three leaders that stood out above the rest. The leaders below display amazing leadership combined with a healthy return on investment.
RS Sharma, Chairman & MD, ONGC
It was last year that RS Sharma stepped into the shoes of Subir Raha as Chairman & MD of ONGC. Plenty of experts doubted his competence over the years but then RS Sharma has silenced critics from time to time. It is worth mentioning in this regard that RS Sharma was the very individual who had managed to protect ONGC’s huge assets with a comprehensive insurance policy.
RS Sharma experience of 19 healthy years and his tremendous crisis management skills have also come to surface plenty a time. All in all, this general knows more than just number crunching and that’s what he’s out to prove!
YC Deveshwar, Chairman, ITC
YC Deveshwar, he has grabbed global recognition- for both ITC and himself. Just imagine how a company can out of the blue stretch its brand name famous for tobacco to other food products. But that is what ITC has done under the supervision of YC Deveshwar.
No one will argue with the fact that this diversification strategy under him has metamorphosised the tobacco company to a flashy conglomerate. YC Deveshwar was adjudged the “Businessperson of the year 2006” award by the “UK Trade and Investment Organization”.
The best part about YC Deveshwar is that he has also stressed on the critical role of Indian rural economy with the help of number of rural initiatives such as e- Choupal. In my opinion, Deveshwar is the perfect FMCG strategist for urban and rural India.
Sanjeev Aga, Chairman & MD, Idea
Sanjeev Aga first made his mark in the paints industry in 1973 and at this moment of time, he is the pillar in wireless industry. In addition, Sanjeev Aga is also currently on Board of Directors of Aditya Birla Management Corporation Limited. In my opinion, he is a brilliant leader and committed to the industry. The best part about Aga is that he is quite logical, analytical, ethical and straightforward.
