Doing More with Less | Navi Radjou | EP 105
Description
Born in Pondicherry and shaped by a life that spans India, France, and Silicon Valley, Navi Radjou brings a worldview that blends humanistic coaching, ecological thinking, and deep cultural intelligence. A longtime advisor to global leaders and co-author of acclaimed books like Jugaad Innovation, From Smart to Wise, and The Frugal Economy, his work has placed him on the Thinkers50 list of the world’s most influential management thinkers every year since 2021.
Our conversation moves through the ideas that define his work: the power of jugaad and resourceful innovation, the rise of the frugal economy, leading wisely in a changing world, and seeing constraints as catalysts rather than limits. Navi shares how his multicultural upbringing shaped his lens on creativity, why optimism is an active practice, and the mindset shifts that help us work, live, and lead with more clarity and compassion.
