The last book that I enjoyed reading was Nuts by Kevin and Jackie Freiberg. The book was a good account of different styles of leadership practiced by Herb Kelleher at South West Airlines. It has a fascinating take on how an unconventional approach at the top can yield the desired results.

I am not a movie buff, but my all-time favourite is Titanic. I don’t mind watching it all over again. The grandeur and romance depicted in this classic leaves me mesmerised.

I love playing squash. It not only involves a good dose of mental strength but also requires you to formulate a strategy on your feet to beat your opponent.

I prefer Italian cuisine and thin crust pizza, in particular, is my favourite. Of late, fusion food is something that I have developed a taste for.

My idea of a holiday is not a laid-back trip but one that provides you a sense of exhilaration. I really enjoyed my recent sojourn to Jeju, the largest island in Korea. I loved the place for its picturesque settings, choice of hiking trails, sun-kissed beaches, origin rock formations and a host of cultural sights.
