Untapping Latent Potential

It is about

* Learning to become a child without being childish

* Developing a childlike approach to learning not


impeded by either ego, identity or fears

* Combining roles, functions and domains in their


simultaneity

* Our capacity to institutionalise doubt and accept being


challenged

* Liberating ourselves from the notion that we base our


futures on our past

 Ramnath Narayanswamy, IIM Bangalore


* Defining your North Star by deriving energy from
appreciative enquiry and deep questioning

* Viewing past successes as impediments to the future

* Breaking the image we have of ourselves because it is


this precisely this image that puts us on autopilot

* Having the courage to be vulnerable by acknowledging

what we do not have

* Understanding the roots of our core incompetencies
