NATURE BECKONS

As a corporate leader, it is important to switch off, says Naivedya Agarwal, co-founder and chief executive of Runaya, a manufacturing start-up. If you are not able to switch off, you will not be able to give your 100%, he believes.

Agarwal has a diverse list of activities that he turns to when he wants to take time off work. Attending concerts is one. A nature lover, he enjoys safaris and wildlife photography. His first safari was in South Africa at the age of nine. However, while he has been on quite a few of them, it was only during the Covid-19 pandemic that he discovered wildlife parks in India, he says.
