New Delhi, SpeakIn, Asia’s largest network of experts and thought leaders bringing the best of knowledge and leaders to the forefront, has announced its first-of-a-kind initiative to recognize the 10 most distinguished IAS officers who have created impact and inspiration beyond their call of duty. Amongst the officers who feature in the inaugural release picked by an eminent jury are Shri. Amitabh Kant (1980, Kerala Cadre - Celebrating a Lifetime Achievement for a career of exemplary impact), Mr. Anil Srivastava (1985, MP Cadre - Excellence in Heavy Industries, Transport & Mobility), Mr. Armstrong Pame (2009, Manipur Cadre- Excellence in Public Policy & Governance), Mr. Bhupesh Chaudhary (2014, AGMUT Cadre - Excellence in Food, Water, Agriculture & Livelihood), Ms. Hari Chandana Dasari (2010, Telangana Cadre- Excellence in ESGs, SDGs & Climate Change), Mr. Iqbal Singh Chahal (1989, Maharashtra Cadre - Excellence in Crisis Management), Dr. Rakesh Gupta (1997 batch, Haryana Cadre - Excellence in Public Policy & Governance), Mr. Sanjeev Kaushik (1992, Kerala Cadre - Excellence in Business & Finance), Mr. Santosh Misra (2000, TN Cadre - Excellence in Innovation & Technology), and Mr. Suhas Lalinakere Yathiraj (2007, UP Cadre - Excellence in Public Policy & Governance). This recognition will be a quarterly issue that will have SpeakIn feature 10 distinguished administrative officers selected from across a set of evolving categories.
The selection in each feature will follow a three-month-long nomination and a multi-factor evaluation process. Commenting on the launch of its new intellectual property, Deepshikha Kumar, Founder and Managing Partner of SpeakIn said, “While many opportunities and discussions applaud achievements in the corporate world, we as a society have left a lot of room to appreciate the backbone of governance and public administration – our officers. There are phenomenal stories of leadership, conviction, and massive impact which need to be told and appreciated. Towards this, SpeakIn has launched a new quarterly series to recognize 10 most distinguished Indian Administrative Service officers.” While good governance has always been key to progress in on-ground execution, our IAS officers both at the Central and State level have assumed even critical significance as India responded to the pandemic in the past year. From framing, implementing, and evaluating policy decisions to working with the public at large and to partnering with key stakeholders, our officers have shaped the country’s response and preparedness. It was time the stories of impact and excellence were celebrated, not just in crisis but beyond. “It took a hugely credible jury including past officers, over 6 months to build the feature from nominations to adjudging the excellence. The evaluation covered five parameters including - Innovation, Public awareness of impact-generated, Ability to leverage technology, people, and processes, Effectiveness in forging partnerships with businesses and ecosystem to bring about a positive change, and Display of exemplary courage and conviction through action and leadership” added Deepshikha. The 10 categories presented in the launch feature include Food, Water, Agriculture and Livelihood, Innovation and Technology, ESG, SDG, and Climate Change, Public Policy and Governance, Crisis Management, Business and Finance, Heavy Industries, Transport and Mobility and a Lifetime Achievement for a career of exemplary impact. Two Oceans Strategy, led by Tom Mills partnered with SpeakIn for this first-of-its-kind initiative especially to recognize impact in ESG, Climate Change, and Public Policy and Governance. To ensure that only the best and tallest leaders join us on the platform, the feature was handpicked by an esteemed jury comprising Dr. Manish Kumar (IAS and Former MD and CEO, NSDC), Shri. Richard Rekhy – (Former India CEO, KPMG), Shri. Raman Sidhu (Chairperson and CEO, EBG Federation), Shri. P.K. Misra (Former Secretary, DoPT and Former Secretary, Steel), Mr. Tom Mills (Director, Two Oceans Strategy), Shri. Nilaya Varma (Co-Founder and CEO, Primus Partners) and Mrs. Deepshikha Kumar (Founder and Managing Partner, SpeakIn). SpeakIn will also organize an annual awards ceremony in New Delhi at the end of the year featuring administrative officers, who make it to the quarterly issues released through the year. The awardees selected by jury members will be felicitated during the event.
