If you believe business lessons can only be learnt in classrooms then Mahindra Group’s Execute Chairman, Anand Mahindra’s latest tweet will change your perception towards it. Mr Mahindra used the video of a Panda that went viral on social media platforms to teach how clingy to a business strategy that isn’t working for you, is a bad idea. In the video, a Panda is clinging onto a man who is busy with his own work. Even though the man continuously ignores the Panda, it keeps coming back.
This went viral for cuteness.But also a business lesson:Don’t cling to a strategy if it keeps throwing you off! ???? https://t.co/NaYFKfxQtJ

While most people saw the funny side of this video and shared it for fun, Mr Mahindra used it as a business lesson. He posted a tweet saying, “This went viral for cuteness.But also a business lesson: “Don’t cling to a strategy if it keeps throwing you off! ????” That tweet is a reflection why Mahindra kept achieving so many heights in life.
Watch the complete video here:
This isn’t the first time when Mr Mahindra has used a social media platform to show his genius. When Virat Kohli scored a double-century against Bangladesh last month, Mr Mahindra jokingly said the 28-year-old top order batsman is creating challenges for Indian diplomacy by heaping humiliation on other countries. He said that if Virat Kohli and team India will keep on embarrassing teams like this, it may create serious challenges for International Diplomacy. He posted a tweet saying, “Kohli & Co-creating serious challenges for our International Diplomacy. 1st they humiliate England & now on course to embarrass Bangladesh.”
During that knock against Bangladesh, Virat Kohli became first batsman in the history of Test cricket to score double centuries in four consecutive Test series. His 246-ball knock included 24 fours. Kohli dominated the bowlers and at no stage looked uncomfortable.
