Have you ever heard one of the co-founders of Sunburn - one of Asia's largest music festivals - give an intimate account of their journey to leadership? Well, in the latest episode of Why Leadership Fails, our man - Devraj Sanyal, Managing Director and CEO of Universal Music India and South Asia, shares his insights on the challenges faced by our modern music industry with our host Bhavna Lalchandani. He highlights the importance of having a clear vision within a team, stating that true empowerment means trusting your team members to take the lead without needing to micromanage them. “Empowerment doesn’t mean hovering over them or controlling every move; it’s about guiding and supporting them from the sidelines,” he points out, clarifying what empowerment in leadership really should look like.
Devraj’s unique approach to managing stress, his commitment to achieving daily goals, and his admiration for musicians like Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam provide listeners with a glimpse into the mindset of a leader who truly believes in shaping culture through the power of artistry.
