Back-to-school season is upon us. As students and instructors around the world gear up for their return to the classroom, we’re reminded of Rishad Premji’s speech at the IIT Gandhinagar convocation, which emphasized the importance of continuous learning both in and out of the classroom. “There is a very practical economic value to humility, in that it ignites our curiosity, our wonder of the world, to find out things we don’t understand. In today’s ‘questions economy,’ asking the right questions seems to hold more value than having all the answers.” There is always more to learn — whether you’re a new student or a new hire, nine years old or ninety. By asking questions and remaining open to new ideas, we avail ourselves to new opportunities that can be incredibly exciting and valuable, especially in a time of constant change and innovation. We’ve got a lot of lifelong learners here at Wipro, and we’re proud to support continuous education efforts throughout our organizations and our global communities.
