Overwhelmed with disbelief, Krishna took to LinkedIn to share his experience and the valuable insights he gained from Murthy.
In a surprising turn of events, Naren Krishna, a passenger on an IndiGo flight from Delhi to Bengaluru, found himself seated next to none other than Narayana Murthy, the co-founder of Infosys. Overwhelmed with disbelief, Krishna took to LinkedIn to share his experience and the valuable insights he gained from Murthy.
During their conversation, Krishna and Murthy discussed many topics, including the future landscape with AI, the influential role of youth in India's global economy, surpassing China's potential, managing expectations, handling stress, and navigating failures in the process of building a company.
Highlighting the most useful piece of advice, Krishna expressed Murthy's emphasis on the importance of detachment from results. Drawing from Murthy's own experiences at Infosys, Krishna recounted instances where his efforts didn't materialise into significant contracts, while unexpected deals surprisingly fell into place.
"One gem he shared was the importance of detachment from results, he recounted instances from his Infosys journey when, despite putting in relentless efforts, big contracts didn't materialise, while unexpected deals surprisingly fell into place. The key takeaway for me in this discussion was the quote he mentioned from Louis Pasteur, 'Chance favours the prepared mind,'" Krishna wrote.
Krishna concluded his post by revealing Murthy's belief in AI's transformative impact on various industries and its potential to enhance human productivity.
Shared on January 22 on LinkedIn, Krishna's post garnered over 4,000 views and numerous comments, with many expressing admiration for the opportunity Krishna had to interact with the Murthy.
The reactions ranged from praising the impressive range of discussions to acknowledging the rarity of such encounters with great personalities like Narayana Murthy.
