Christina Ruggiero, CEO, Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages identified communication as the skill that will be the most important in the post COVID world. She was speaking in a freewheeling conversation, organized by UpGrad. She was discussing the subject of Lifelong Learning with serial entrepreneur Ronnie Screwvala and upGrad CEO, Arjun Mohan. The session had more than 1,000 participants in the webinar and several thousand that watched the session on digital channels.
Christina said, “Good communication skills have been an absolute game-changer for a lot of people that I have spoken to either trying to find jobs or who already have employment.” She urged participants to not make learning an event but a continuous process. During the 60-minute session, Christina also highlighted how HCCB continues to stick to its age-old core values, how its products are benchmarks for consistent quality and its focus on being an equal opportunity employer for all genders. Christina and Ronnie addressed multiple questions including the do’s and don’ts of effective communication, turning one’s internal zeal into something fruitful and what drives them to be great leaders.
