Ravindran Kanesvaran, Chairman of the Division of Medical Oncology at the National Cancer Centre Singapore, and Distinguished Professor of Geriatric Oncology at Duke-NUS Medical School, shared a post on LinkedIn by Sushmita Sen, The Invisibles Project Podcast Host, Global Medical Scientific Alliances, Oncology & Hematology at Roche, adding:
“Thanks so much to Dr. Sushmita Sen for the insightful conversation on leadership, scaling impact and managing change as part of The Invisibles Project podcast. It was a privilege to be interviewed alongside such a dynamic, forward-thinking leader. I hope my reflections offer encouragement to others navigating growth in healthcare and organisational settings. May our shared commitment to purpose over profit continue to inspire thoughtful change. Here’s to keeping curiosity open, ambition grounded and impact human-centred.”
Quoting Sushmita Sen‘s post:
“Ready to Scale Your Impact? Go Beyond the 1:1 Model To Build Your Legacy
The Invisibles Project Podcast dropped another ‘must listen’ episode!
If you’re feeling like your career and contributions have plateaued, my guest Dr. Ravindran Kanesvaran highlights three must-have shifts to continue making an impact on others:
Shift Your Frame to Building a Legacy: Stop focusing just on today’s to-do list. Frame your impact by asking: What legacy do I want to leave behind to support the next generation?
This simple reframing gives your work deeper, long-term meaning.
Shift Your Model of Influence: To truly scale, you have to move from a one-on-one approach to a one-to-many approach. That means embracing a new role and asking: Where can I make a bigger impact with what I’ve learned so far?
Sometimes, stepping sideways creates the space for others to shine.
Shift Your Leadership to Embrace Humility: The most powerful leadership tool? Humility. Leaders who prioritize people and purpose above self are more approachable and build massive trust.
Simple behaviors such as listening more than speaking and admitting when you don’t know the answer are key to accelerating your influence.
Remember, our goal as a leader is not just about advancing our own goal, but it is uplifting others and creating a space for them to shine. When that becomes our focus, our impact scales naturally.
Tune into the latest podcast episode of The Invisibles Project where I unpack these topics with my guest Dr. Ravi Kanesvaran. Episode Link.
After listening to the episode let me know what’s one small step you can take this week based on what you heard?”
