Prof. Rai delved deeply into the essence of effective leadership, drawing inspiration from the teamwork exemplified by flying geese. He said, “The geese change their position when they fly in a triangle. This helps everyone take rest, lead the team, and allows the team to attain more while moving towards a specific goal.”

He also highlighted the geese's support for an ailing member, saying, “Whenever a geese falls sick, two geese stay with it till it recovers, and then they again take a flight.' He also stressed the importance of encouragement within teams, likening it to the geese at the rear honking to uplift their counterparts.”
