Last lecture
Why are we a country of mediocrity? People respond. Low risk appetite, red-tapeism, mediocrity breeds mediocrity (urs truly speaketh!) etc etc. Prof Ram shows us few slides of Combodian capital Phnom Penh. Then Angkor Wat. Torture centers during Khmer Rouge regime led by a teacher of French literature and history Saloth Sar better known as Pol Pot. Few slides showed the killing fields where people were dumped in open graves after being killed. There are many non-diffused landmines still present in the area.
In between all this, Prof Ram met this motorcycle taxi driver. He lost his father and four brothers to Pol Pot's atrocities. This guy learns english by listening to radio, reading newspapers and repeating every sentence that Prof Ram uttered. He does not go to the local school because they all have flawed pronunciation. He wants to move from bike to a taxi. And he is working hard at it.
What leads to innovation?
Do you realise what kind of competitors you're pitted against?
You might have read lots of theory, many brands but, remember there is only one brand and that is you.
