Summary

This question comes from a Marketing prodigy, who got frustrated with her new job with an MNC. Her problem was that she was not doing the job she was promised but doing other things. In this episode, I tackle the question based on a complex dilemma - should one follow her/ his PASSION or VISION. I do this with the help of a real story of a person I have mentored over the last few years and I know she is a go-getter but this question also stumped her.
