Delegate Dreams

A fellow speaker gave an interesting insight on the delegation of authority. He said 'delegate dreams' to your people and not just the authority.

An #entrepreneur is a visionary. He inspires his team to take that extra mile to deliver 'his' dreams. How about making it 'their' dreams?

Wonderful thought. Make them earn their dream on your idea. You win their loyalty and you can create a miracle. #entrepreneurship #startUp

When I entered the retail business with our first store at Juhapura in the year 2004 I hardly knew much about this sector. Having spent most of my professional career as an advertising and media executive, food-grocery retail remained alien to my knowledge. While I was struggling to learn the ropes of retail I saw many corporates rode the retail wave and there were scores of retail chains cropped up in food-grocery domain. Amongst the prominent ones were Future group, Adanis (which later sold the chain to Reliance), Reliance retail, Subhiksha, More (Birlas) etc. But there was one name which never made it to this ‘prominent’ list’ – D-Mart.
