From this story i can relate the quote which sundar pichai has said
“Opportunity doesn't happen you create them”
In 2013, he was offered the position of CEO by Microsoft, but when he informed
his boss that he was leaving, Google offered him a much higher salary and made
him CEO, and today he is not only the CEO of Google, but also the parent
company of Google, Alphabet, and has a net worth of $600 million.
He Says “ If you don't fail sometimes you are not being ambitious
enough”
I completely agree that it is possible to fail 100 times, but it is important to try
and learn from each mistake. From this story, I can conclude that the idea of
GMAP that the team thought was impossible now has over 1 billion users +.
(Data as per Jan 2021). As a leader, it is Important that you do not solve
problems for your own benefit, but rather for the benefit of the consumers.
Sundar Pichai has stated that whenever you think, you should always think in
the long term, and when they planned to launch the browser, they had a vision
that it will be for infinity. Today, when we speak about water, we think of Bisleri,
when we speak about Life insurance, we think of LIC , and when we think of a
search engine, we think of Google.
They had around 17 competitors in 2008, but they no longer exist in the market.
“Don't Try to beat the competitor, Create your own game & when you
invent your new game, Competition will end”
How did Google become so popular?
Google has never disclosed this because it is their unique selling point. However,
if we look at the data centre, we can see that they have 21 data centres in the
United States and 22 worldwide.
● Whenever Sundar Pichai has faced a problem in his life, he has created a
product to solve it. I totally believe that problems are seeds of innovation
and this the reason that at present
● He has always welcomed all ideas, suggestions, and corrections to his
mistakes from all levels of employees. While watching one of his
interviews, he mentioned that he had awarded one of his employees for
correcting him on the beer emoji. So, you may be wondering why the
employee was awarded. So the answer is that Sundar Pichai is a CEO and
no one will dare to correct him, so as an entrepreneur, he must prove that
he is approachable and that he welcomes all ideas/correction/Suggestions.
● What I have learnt from Sundar pichai story is that Nothing is impossible
in life. His journey from being born into a simple family to becoming a
successful person would have been impossible if he had lacked in hard
work, dedication, and a positive attitude towards life.
