A stream of visual insights in form of #sketchnotes from the pen of Tanmay Vora. More about sketchnote project here.
When you are on the journey of learning and sharing online, you often come across recognitions and the most common recognition these days is that of an “influencer”. Along my own journey, I have been ranked amongst “influencers” many times. This tag is given after careful analysis of social media metrics, but that tells very […]
In 2010, I wrote a short post about “Nine Roles of Great Leadership.” When I had just started creating sketchnotes in 2015, I created a very rough visual interpretation of the article in form of a sketchnote and shared it on social media. I never imagined that my rough scribble would end up going viral. […]
I have worked with leaders who are too paranoid about the results that they don’t care about relationships and the ones who are so internally focused that they miss the beat of the market. Leadership in a complex world (made all the more complex by the pandemic) requires leaders to have a more holistic focus […]
Businesses and individuals are caught in a perfect storm of uncertainties stemming from the current pandemic. It feels like the “future of work” that people often referred to in fancy conferences just preponed its arrival! In fact, future happens one day at a time and here we are!

In times like these when COVID19 pandemic has fundamentally altered the ways of working, consumption and business models, organizations that have invested in building culture of continuous learning are more likely to survive and […]
If I recollect the experience of learning bicycle as a child, the first thing that comes to mind are those nasty falls and bruised knees. Soon thereafter, the exhilaration of riding freely took over. Like all significant learning, it was difficult in the beginning before practice turned it easy. Effective learners know that ambiguity and […]
When I delivered a TEDx talk in early 2019 about “Self-Directed Learning”, little did I know what was in store for us in coming year and two. In times like these, it is not easy to focus on learning. We are anxious about our physical, social and economic well-being. And yet, people who will thrive […]
The best leaders people love working with are humble leaders. This does not mean that they are soft in their approach towards the outcomes or weak/spineless in the face of adversity. Humble leaders simply consider themselves as the medium for the work to get done, not the source of it. If we think carefully about […]
