India is a country of youths. No nation other
than India has so many young people. Our
nation, which is known to the world as the
youngest nation, is now prepared to make a
mark even on the business front. Our youth
have brought a new radiance to the commercial
sector and made a special place in various
segments like finance, management,
production, import-export, etc. Today, they
have not only entered into businesses that were
until now considered to be the preserves for
the grownups and the experienced, but have
even acquired a prominent place in these fields.
The sector is currently reaping the fruits of their
skilled leadership.
According to the experts, today’s youths have a mature mindset and sophisticated skills. They are quite different from their counterparts who lived a few decades back. This is so because the productive ability of the former has integrated traditions with modernization. They believe that if there is courage, prudence and the zeal to do something new, nothing is impossible. Our industrious youths deserve appreciation because they have taught themselves the art of achieving even the impossible.
According to a study conducted on international employment, companies spread across various sectors of our economy have experienced a decline in the average age of their leadership. Today, young people between the ages of 30 and 40 years are heading various business enterprises. The experts who conducted the study have said that during the past five years, this average age has reduced by about nine years. This data is surprising and it clearly shows the pace with which our youths are acquiring the ability to lead. This trend is primarily visible in the IT, banking and finance related service sector.
The study further revealed that the year 2006 witnessed a sharp decline in the age of the C.E.O.’s in the banking and financial service sectors. But there was no such trend in 2001. Experts are considering it as a positive sign indicating the bright future of our country in the twenty-first century. Similarly, in the field of technology and software related service sectors, the average age of the C.E.O.’s has been further reduced this year. This is an impact of their zeal and the firm will-power to complete the tasks they take up.
The experts of the commercial sector believe that there is a deep co-relation between this decline in the average age and the growing demand of the working professionals. They are in great demand especially in the I.T., B.P.O. and the finance related services. Analysts think that even when the average age of the chief executives is decreasing, yet there is an increase in the maturity level across various sectors. These changes occurring in the Indian service sector, point towards bright prospects at the global level in the near future.
The world renowned Forbes magazine, which is published from New York, has revealed surprising data about our young entrepreneurs.
