The Power of Learning from DAD
Desire. Attitude. Decision.
BY DR. SELVA PANKAJ
While studying at Harvard Business School in 2016, Dr Selva Pankaj was introduced to Professor Clayton M. Christensen, who talked to him about the laws of nature and the need to do certain things in a certain way, every day, in order to achieve success.
These words evoked memories of the lessons that Selva had first been taught by his late father, growing up in war-torn Sri Lanka and then later building his success in the United Kingdom.
This book is part memoir, part self-reflection and part theoretical exposition. It warmly combines paternal wisdom with the teachings of many eminent authors on human potential, human behaviour and success, creating a seminal work on harnessing the powers we have within us to achieve our goals, and the power of learning from our parents.
“Not only does this book make a powerful case for the impact desire, attitude and decision making can have on your life but it is a first-hand account of how to put those ideas into practice.”
Foreword by
The Right Honourable Jeremy Hunt MP
