Mukesh Ambani then spoke about the three entrepreneurship lessons the RIL founder instilled in him:
- Courage and self belief: "All of us know as entrepreneurs that we don't succeed at the first attempt, and self-belief comes to you when you fail. And self-belief increases your confidence when you succeed," Ambani said.
- Empathy and creativity: "By empathy, I mean, put yourself in the others' shoes, and make sure that how you make them feel is how you would want to feel," he said.
- Importance of relationships and trust: "The whole of Reliance right now, with hundreds of thousands of people, is one big family. We're not related by birth, but we are really woven together by passion, purpose, and conviction. We have faith in one another," Ambani said.
