The COVID-19 pandemic has completely transformed organizations and the way they function. This is a time that we had never seen before. So, it was obvious that riding through this tough wave would not be easy. As the lockdown gets extended in many cities, organizations are trying to find answers to many questions relating to resuming work from offices. But one thing is for sure; the crisis has changed the very ecosystem of the workplace and there will be a “new normal” that we all must learn to adapt to. Leaders too will need to redefine their leadership style to be more effective in these testing times.

He also highlights how passion and persistence with integral commitment and unwavering efforts is the key to achieve success and scale great heights.
Dr. Hiranandani is known as a Co-Founder and MD, Hiranandani Group, who recently started a distinct Business Unit Hiranandani Communities. Currently, he spearheads as the National President for National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO), which works under the aegis of Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs, Government of India and also appointed President of one of the oldest trade body of India -ASSOCHAM (Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry).
