Narayana Murthy
Infosys co-founder N R N Narayana Murthy, who advised youngsters to work 70 hours a week, on Monday said no one can ask a person to work for long hours, but everyone needs to be ‘introspective’. Should be done and its need should be understood. Narayana Murthy said he has worked more than 70 hours per week for 40 years during his tenure at Infosys. Murthy said these are issues that need introspection, not debate.
used to reach office at 6:30
He said, “I can say that I used to reach the office at 6:30 in the morning and leave the office at 8:30 in the night, this is a fact. I have done this. Therefore, one cannot say that no, it is wrong. “And I have been doing this for 40 years,” he said in response to a question on work-life balance after delivering the annual Kilachand Memorial Lecture at the IMC. Narayana Murthy said that people do not need to discuss or debate too much on the advice he gave.
Hard work will improve the future of the child
Instead, it is important that every person thinks for himself, understands it and then comes to a conclusion based on his thinking. After this, they can take whatever decision they want to take. Murthy said, “We should see our efforts and hard work linked to how much we are contributing to bringing about change in the society. Especially from the perspective of a poor child, we should understand that our hard work will affect that child’s future. Is it helping to improve or not? “If I work harder, if I work smarter, if I earn more revenue, if I pay more taxes, that child will be better off,” Murthy said.
