Leadership & Horse Sense!

I’ve always been enamoured by horse racing. The prize money is humongous, no doubt, but the most fascinating part of the sport for me has always been the horses themselves!

A lot of planning, preparation, care, commitment and passion go into the making of a champion horse.

The process starts right at the time of selecting the horse… the idea is to pick a thoroughbred with the best possible genetic lineage to ensure inheritance of superior capabilities. The next step is to offer a comfortable accommodation for the horse… this includes the preparation and maintenance of a hygienic stable. Then one needs to monitor the health and well-being of the horse by providing a balanced nutrition and diet. Cleaning and grooming also form an integral part of this process. Last but not the least, comes the training… exercise routines and training schedules are tailor-made to suit the physical condition of the horse so that it can perform to its fullest potential and become a CHAMPION!

As leaders, it is not only our responsibility to identify and select thoroughbreds in our teams… but also to put in all the planning, preparation, care, commitment and passion to make them Champions!
