But what if the key to better decisions isn’t working harder… it’s stepping away? In this Tech Byte from the Tech Leaders Untold podcast, Saurajit Kanungo, President of CG Infinity, shares how developing hobbies like golf, fishing, and beekeeping helped him disconnect from the constant pressure of leadership. After years of focusing only on academics and career success, Saurajit realized that true performance requires intentional rest.
