Dr. Anil Menon, Senior Advisor to the Chairman, World Economic Forum

Anil, who started his career in academia with two PHD’s to his name, takes us through his experiences from consulting with large corporations to running a strategic marketing group for IBM and then as Head of Cisco Smart and Connected Communities Business. Grounded with his core beliefs that innovation is a product of diversity, and that you learn from people, because it is people that make history, Anil looks for agility of thinking and people that are frustration proof, when he looks to the leaders of tomorrow. He also outlines why relevance is so important and how being fearless is the only way to really drive change.
