“𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐡 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭, 𝐂𝐨𝐮����𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐔𝐧𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥”

In a spectacular demonstration of endurance and determination, two Indian Army officers - 𝐂𝐨𝐥 𝐉𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐯𝐢𝐫 𝐋𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐋𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐥 𝐒𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐢𝐤, etched their names in glory at the #𝐈𝐑𝐎𝐍𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝟏𝟒𝟎.𝟔 #𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐥𝐨𝐧 held in #𝐏𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐮, #𝐓𝐚𝐢𝐰𝐚𝐧, on 13th April 2025.

The IRONMAN challenge, considered the toughest endurance events in the world, comprised:

▪️ 𝟑.𝟖 𝐤𝐦 Open-Water Swim
▪️ 𝟏𝟖𝟎 𝐤𝐦 of relentless Cycling
▪️ 𝟒𝟐.𝟐 𝐤𝐦 of grueling Running

At 𝟓𝟑.𝟓 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬, Col 𝐉𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐯𝐢𝐫 𝐋𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐚, competing in the highly competitive 50–54 age category, braved harsh conditions and the immense physical demands of the race to finish the challenge in 𝟏𝟒 𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝟓𝟑 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝟑𝟒 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐬. His performance is a stirring reminder that age is just a number, and that the heart of a soldier, honed by discipline and resilience, knows no limits.

Equally inspiring was the debut performance of Lt Col 𝐒𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐢𝐤, racing in the 40–44 age category. Facing choppy waters and strong winds, he conquered the punishing course in an impressive 𝟏𝟐 𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬, 𝟓𝟐 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝟓𝟕 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐬. His effort stood as a shining beacon of first-time courage, spectacular endurance and unwavering grit.

A salute to their indomitable spirit and the ethos of the #IndianArmy, undaunted, unyielding and unstoppable.

Good read! Simple ideas for improving efficiency and effectiveness of collaboration (value-creating collaboration). Much required in today's hybrid mode of working.

Interacting in today's increasingly connected work environment is easier than ever, but achieving productive, value-creating collaboration is not.

These techniques boost the effectiveness and efficiency of interactions so teams can get things done ✅

@mlombardiNFL @RogerLMartin A great read indeed!

[Devika Thorat @DevikaThorat]

@RogerLMartin Insightful as always! Interesting concept of identifying 'New Value' & 'More Value'.

[Devika Thorat @DevikaThorat]

@RogerLMartin Interesting as always! My takeaway - Customisation of strategy at coalface level.

[Devika Thorat @DevikaThorat]

@AdamMGrant So true!

[Devika Thorat @DevikaThorat]

@AdamMGrant So true. And we keep talking about it, but nothing changes. Can we now start talking about action?

In Kolhapur, again. Had a candid and intense discussion with children born with HIV (PLHIV) at the Care Centre of the Lotus Medical Foundation. It wasn’t surprising to note that what the children find hardest to combat is not the medical condition, it is the stigma.
