The best lessons are learnt on the field among your people with responsibilities to look forward to and people looking up to you. There are many shining examples around the world who have moved up and forward to become case studies of successful demonstrations of inspiring things that can be learned from the successful business journeys from these leaders.
There are so many stories that are becoming outstanding lessons for the young generation of entrepreneurs, from legendary leaders like Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, and Jeff Bezos to modern creators like Harsh Binani, co-founder of India’s Largest Flex Space Provider. From excellence in academics to exponential growth in professional career and now becoming the co-founder of Smartworks, the largest managed workspace provider, Harsh Binani is truly an example to learn from. Here are some key takeaways from his career that are inspiring lessons for the coming generations of entrepreneurs.
Ability to plan and Adapt
Harsh Binani believes that a true leader must have the ability to look ahead of time and plan accordingly. A group of people is following the leader and it is up to the leader to plan the path and carve the growth journey. Harsh Binani is a firm follower of the quality to adapt. The market is an ever-changing ground, with nothing constant or stable. A good leader must possess the quality to adapt quickly to changes and act accordingly. If you are too rigid as a leader then you are bound to fail.
Harsh Binani is a prime example of carving opportunity from the crises. When the world of business came to a standstill during the global pandemic, he saw the gap that will come in the future and worked towards making tech-enabled workspaces integrated with touchless technology.

Timed Unreasonableness
“The reasonable man adapts himself to the world,” wrote George Bernard Shaw, “the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.” A talent for well-timed unreasonableness is another attribute of a great leader. Harsh Binani joined smart works in 2017 when the co-working market was a big g competition and less innovation. Harsh Binani alongside Neetish Sarda made the gamble to switch to big enterprises with the concept of managed workspaces. It was an insane plan to attract the consumers who were not even looking for the services the duo was providing. After hitting several setbacks, the firm faith in Smartworks and continuous innovation in the market plan finally drew the attention of big enterprises, making them all in for the perks of managed workspaces. The move paid off and today Smartworks is India’s largest managed workspace provider, catering to MNCs and fortune 500 companies.
Harsh Binani has faced several setbacks, but he believes that a good leader and manager must know how to learn from the initial setbacks and plan for the big wins. A combination of his entrepreneurial spirit and dedication towards his goal is helping Smartworks soar to new heights.
