Sreekanth Arimanithaya is definitely the best motivational speaker who shares inspirational quotes on social media every day. However, a close friend of mine, who is a former employee at EY, has shared his experience with me. He is facing unemployment and other problems and has reached out to Sreekanth for help multiple times, but his messages have been completely ignored without a single reply. While Sreekanth finds time to post excellent empathetic and inspirational quotes, as well as deliver motivational speeches, it seems that he lacks genuine intentions to help others. Nowadays, I observe a multitude of fake influencers, particularly on Social media and digital platforms. Regardless of their position, salary, or status, if they lack humanity, empathy, or even the basic courtesy to respond, they are not true leaders; they are simply bosses.
