Seriously, In an environment like Pakistan, it is insane to be optimistic, where things usually go beyond your worst expectations. But for some people, it seems pessimism isn't an option. For example, Asad Umar (x-CEO Engro), the guy seriously went into expansion mode, bringing ENGRO, a company limited in its scope into entering a very competitive FOODS sector, which is heavily dominated by Multinationals. Though times were much better back then, but taking an organization into new waters and competing with the sharks, requires some seriously insane mindset.
But what do these people really gain, from being optimistic in a pessimistic environment?
There are not many insane people/organization out there, only resistance they get is from existing players, which are already playing it safe as they believe in the failure of the initiative without proper industry support. These leaders really make things go.
Dr. Ishrat Husain's initiative to revamp IBA & bringing it in the top 100 universities of the world seems to be ridiculously insane. But even if the initiative fails, it will surely bring the university in top 250, where none of the Pakistani universities have ever been before.
The outclass leadership of people like Asad Umar and Dr. Ishrat Husain is what this country actually needs, who can turn the tide in a high velocity storm.
