ACEO of a Japanese firm who decided to relocate to Bengaluru in April in a bid to understand the culture and the country recently said that the world needed Indian leadership and expressed amazement at India’s diversity and values.
Writing on social networking platform LinkedIn, Naotaka Nishiyama, founder and chief executive of Tech Japan, said that the world today was a chaotic place to live in and required India to take it forward as the country has experienced many things domestically.
“World needs Indian leadership. It has been a month since I moved to India, and once again I am amazed at the diversity of values in India.”
“It is a miracle that India is one country despite being a large country with various religions, races, and values. It is a good opportunity to think about leadership, as India is in the election season now,” the man wrote in the post.
Citing the examples of Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Nishiyama said that India embodied both competition and collaboration and had the ability to lead in a global organisation.
“In the business field, Neither Sundar Pichai nor Satya Nadella are second-generation Americans. They were born in India, educated in India, and then went to the U.S. for graduate school.”
“In other words, it is only because India embodies both competition and collaboration that it is capable of leadership in a global organization,” he wrote.
The man’s post saw a lot of replies from users, who praised him for his analysis and perspective about India’s potential to help grow the world.
“This is a very insightful and informative perspective. For me it talks to both the differences and richness of cultures and more specifically diversity. Their is immense richness in diversity if properly leveraged and harmonized which I think the India model confirms and demonstrates as per your articulation,” one user wrote.
“Thanks Nishiyama san, really a very interesting depth analysis in almost minimum words. Having been in Japan for 1 year, I think there is still to learn a lot from Japanese culture. But your point about accepting and managing diversity in the current volatile time is very important and India: a nation of unity in diversity has a very important role to play,” another user wrote.
