4. Set The Goal
Movie review
• In the film, Pi's father
Santosh Patel told this
to Pi at the dining table,
when he was getting
inquisitive about
different religions and
wanted to follow all of
them at the same time.
Corporate lesson
• Its difficult to follow
different paths.
• Its conflicting.
• It’s a wastage of resources.
• As an entrepreneur, it's also
important to choose your
mentors, guides wisely.
• Set your own goal and stay
focused towards it.

5. Build your own image
Movie review
• Pi Patel was born with the
name Piscina Molitor Patel,
given by his uncle after a
swimming pool in france.
• That caused him lots of
anguish. And he knew that it
will cause him more trouble.
• So, he decided to remember
the value of Pi expressed in
several hundred decimal places
to drive home the point.
Corporate lesson
• Associating a story with the
name made it work even
better for him. So, if you
have to work on creating a
new brand name of
changing your existing
brand name for that matter,
work on telling a good story
which captures the
imagination of the audience.

6. Plan for everything
Movie review
• When Pi was thrown into
the sea on the lifeboat with
limited stock of resources
after his ship capsized, he
had to make a plan to
survive the uncertain and
indeterminate period in the
harsh seas
• Fortunately, he found a
handbook to help him plan
for the time on the lifeboat.
Corporate lesson
• If you're an entrepreneur,
think of the handbook as
your business plan.
• In life also, continuous
planning for different stages
of your life, and not only
during the difficult days,
when resources are low, will
help you live a good life.

7. Use your resources best
Movie review
• When Pi found Richard Parker
on the life boat, he got scared
and threw all the supplies in
the lifeboat to a makeshift raft
and tied it to the life boat and
decided to shift to the raft.
• When the breaching whale
appeared at night and upturned
Pi's raft throwing all his
supplies to the water, Pi
realized, living with Richard
Parker on the boat may be a
better option
Corporate lesson
• if you have limited resources and
there are multiple products,
fighting for the same resource, it's
better to spread your resources
across groups to reduce
dependency on one product to
succeed
• For career improvements,
consider skill enhancement and be
aware of the job market realities
and don't just tie yourself to your
current company, to stay relevant
in the long run.

8. Competition is not always bad
Movie review
• After the whale incident, Pi
had to reconcile to the fact that
he has to live with Richard
Parker on the lifeboat.
• Having Richard Parker on
board also kept him alert at all
times.
• Richard Parker is both a co-
founder and a competitor for
Pi in his entrepreneurial
journey. An entrepreneur needs
to co-exist with both.
Corporate lesson
• With co-founders, it's
important to communicate
clearly, define roles and
responsibilities and ensure
that you don't encroach
upon each other's spaces.
• An entrepreneur needs to
learn to co-exist with
competition in the market.
• It should be healthy.

9. Pi got new island
Movie review
• When Pi reached the
mysterious floating island
of carnivorous algae
inhabited by meekest, it
seemed like, he has
reached an oasis of life
with bountiful food, water
and shelter.
Corporate lesson

eye on the final
destination.
• Keep moving
• Don’t be greedy

10. Pi didn't give up hope and he kept moving
Corporate lesson
• it's important to remember,
that the darkest days are not
going to last. It's important,
not to give up on your
dreams and give up on life.
• everything else in life is
only temporary and this too
shall pass.

11. Conclusion
• Life Of Pi is a story of perseverance and a
story of not giving up, even in the harshest of
conditions.
• For an entrepreneur It's important, not to give
up on your dreams and give up on life.
