Management lessons from Rani of Jhansi

February 26, 2009

On that evening, Rani committed one mistake of not opening the gates of Jhansi and attacking the British soldiers who were in their last stage of battle against Tatya Tope's forces. That attack would have crippled Rose's forces and would have changed the course of the war. She realised it later.

Lesson: Opportunity comes without any announcement. It should be sensed, grabbed and exploited.
