Quotes:

“Leadership is a skill. It is not about introversion or extroversion. And I think there are certain skills which are required for you as a leader, but which can be learned or which can be practiced irrespective of your personality style.” - Sumit Gupta

"What I am realizing now is that confidence is an outcome of doing something repeatedly, not a prerequisite.” - Sumit Gupta

"Emotions are meant to be felt not to be analytically judged, or solved, or labeled even as positive or negative." - Sumit Gupta
