Mysuru: “Most important aspect of success is attitude which decides your altitude,” said Sampathkumar B Aratti, Vice President & Head of HR for APAC and Chief People Officer, Lapp Asia Pacific Pte Ltd, Singapore.
Delivering keynote address during second international conference on leadership on topic ‘Navigating Industry 5.0 for Sustainability and Inclusive Progress’ organised by Shri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara Institute for Management Development (SDMIMD), in collaboration with the Bangalore Chamber of Industry and Commerce (BCIC) – SDMIMD Centre for Management Excellence, Aratti said “Industry 5.0 also called the fifth industrial revolution reflects a shift in focus from an economic approach to a focus on social value and well being. It is a new phase of industrialisation in which humans work together with advanced technology and AI driven robots to improve processes at work and also mentioned that 85 percent of the jobs that will exist in 2030 haven’t been invented yet and AI automation and machine learning are rapidly reshaping the job market.”
With regards to a good leader, he said, one needs to understand the emotions of the employee.
“The multiple PhDs and papers that we write are not much significant; I am not saying that is not important, infact at the age of 50 I started doing PhD. I do respect PhDs but what is most important is, with PhD we should also put forth humane and understand what organisation requires. A manager need not necessarily be a leader that needs a lot of competence, focus and many things. Apart from this inner focus also helps leaders to be most successful,” said Aratti.
Dr S N Prasad, Director of SDMIMD, highlighted the role of leadership in building sustainable and forward-thinking organisations.
He spoke about the importance of cultivating a leadership culture that can drive organisational and societal growth in a rapidly changing world.
The conference began with a conference briefing by Dr Mamta Hegde, Conference Chair at SDMIMD, Mysore, who highlighted the key themes and objectives of the event.
Dr Hegde emphasised the need to address emerging leadership paradigms as organisations across the globe face unprecedented challenges and opportunities in the era of rapid technological advancement and globalisation.

The conference provided a platform for intellectual discourse, bringing together industry leaders, academics and professionals to explore the evolving leadership paradigms in today’s complex and globalised business enenvironment.
