2020 was the year of survival and even though the pandemic presented challenges for entrepreneurs, it also gave them a chance to be their best — from moving past their comfort zones to becoming agile problem solvers.

Amidst the fear of losing teams, competitive edges or even their business, some of them have risen to the challenge only to emerge stronger than ever. As new business models emerge from the crisis, these leaders are the nexus for an emerging ecosystem that’s built for the future. A lot will change and so must leadership.

So, what is the secret formula for winning leaders? What’s next for consumers, employees and companies in the years ahead?

To explore this and more, NxtGen, a leader in the space of Datacenter and cloud-based services, and VMWare presents the CXO Diaries. Powered by YS, the series of ‘townhalls’ will bring together top decision-makers from growth-stage companies and large enterprises in India.

A sneak peek into the future of leadership

Over the next six months, the series will bring together 20+ accomplished leaders and 10,000+ attendees to discuss tried-and-tested best practices to lead a successful organisation.

For these leaders, leadership is not just about profits but about building a sustainable internal culture. Each leader is unique and each one has a story to tell.

The series will cover a plethora of topics including the importance of mental health in the workplace, unlocking India’s potential to become a $1 trillion digital economy, accelerating digital transformation, workload possibilities across the hybrid cloud, how to create and scale an amazing culture for a remote workforce, among others.
