Human Beyond Resources | Kunal Shah, Founder & CEO, CRED | Ep 04

In this episode of #HumanBeyondResources Kunal Shah, Founder & CEO, CRED in his unfiltered, inimitable style talks about how the company’s employees make memes on him, starting four-day work weeks, providing unlimited leaves and advance salaries to all employees.

Rich channels like these, usually have less viewers, but the good this is, those "less viewers" are one of the best peoples out there in this country who will play an active role in shaping it.

True humility. Great to see such a compassionate and empathetic leader!!! Wherever he goes, the greatest talent will end up, and cutting edge innovation will flow. Such common sense in a world where common sense is less common! A true leader.

One definitely expects to learn a lot about money and money management lessons from Kunal Shah, but today, I also walk away with so many life lessons. Thanks for this amazing interview Ramarko. Well-framed and thought-through questions backed by amazing answers from Kunal make this one of those interviews one saves to his library.

Really want to work for such company where employees r not treated like machines or anything else. Personally more and more such kind of leaders must be there. lets see today will try to enroll and get on board.

[@tonijohn88]

A wonderful interview and a lot of things that you take back with you after watching it. Most important was his thought on the life skill of 'How to manage your Money' which I believe is essential.

[@shivamrode9504]

How is CRED teaching financial education the the consumers? Curious to know

[@Focusfame]

Please sir insert subtitles tooo

[@ankitbiswal5350]

Can anyone know kunal shah glass model?

[@ashishmalhotra2230]

You would obviously give away innumerable gifts and leaves when you have investors money with you. But I think that's a very short term view of business. In long run these unnecessary costs will bite you back.

[@miccujha8115]

It's useless to teach him what he should do someone who was founder of FreeCharge and still we still think that we know better than him

[@ashishmalhotra2230]

@@miccujha8115 Doesn't make him Mr. Know It All. Moreover I am not hopeless like you to share what I think.

[@armada70]

What about Amazon, Google, Facebook? They had losses for a while before making profit. Just because he is giving these gifts and leaves doesn't mean it will be the case forever.

[@hiteshkapdoskar9943]
