One of my biggest strengths has been my team. Here's a short thread on some of my learnings.
1.
I've always hired people who are better than me. That way, my job shifts from actually doing things to getting things done.
2.
I've always hired a diverse workforce. Bringing different people together has always brought newer ideas & solutions.
3.
When productivity has suffered, I've painfully (with empathy) set aside loyalty from the team members. This belief often leads the team members to pursue something that they themselves find more joy in. Eventually, it benefits both, the individual & the organization.
4.
The right things aren't always easy. So when faced with difficult decisions, I've always put the need of the organization over the needs of any particular individual; even my own.

I’ve summarised simple processes that can lead to qualitative meetings leading to less frustration and positive outcomes.

What is a sustainable way of ensuring quality mental health services for those living in semi-urban & rural areas in India? The answer is to go local! The Atmiyata project by @CMHLPIndia is a community-based mental health model serving 500 villages in Mehsana district Gujarat.
The Atmiyata project uses videos uploaded on smartphones to train volunteers as community mobilizers to promote well-being, detect cases of stress/ distress, provide counseling support, and apply referral and follow-up techniques. #mentalhealthmatters #communitymentalhealth
The model is replicable & can be adapted in every State in the country since the resources are being cultivated locally.
