Speaker- Jonty Rhodes
On 8th March, KNUTS.in powered an extraordinary leadership session in Kolkata for a vibrant entrepreneurial community, featuring Voice of Value Jonty Rhodes—the legendary South African cricketer whose revolutionary fielding changed cricket forever. Through an intimate, thought-provoking dialogue, Jonty mesmerized the audience with compelling stories of resilience and calculated risk-taking that transcended sports. From sharing the heartwarming story behind naming his daughter “India” to analyzing his gravity-defying catches, he offered rare insights into what it truly means to perform under pressure—balancing split-second decisions with visionary leadership.
Jonty Rhodes revolutionized cricket not with bat or ball, but with his electrifying presence on the field, redefining what was possible through unmatched agility and fearless commitment. His remarkable journey spans multiple domains—from an illustrious 15-year international cricket career spanning 52 Test matches and 245 ODIs for South Africa between 1992 and 2003, to his transition into banking with Stanbic, then returning to the sport as fielding coach for Mumbai Indians in the IPL, the South African national team, and even serving as Sweden’s national cricket coach. As an accomplished business mentor who now calls India his second home, Jonty draws powerful parallels between sporting excellence and entrepreneurial success. His masterful insights on team dynamics, conflict resolution, and navigating career pivots resonated profoundly with the ambitious leaders in attendance, who left with actionable strategies to elevate their own leadership journeys and organizations to new heights.
