Jaimit Doshi: Leadership through Empathy and Boundaries.

What does leadership look like in today’s marketing world? In this latest segment of #BreakTheBox, Mr. Jaimit Doshi, Ex Global Marketing Head at Lenskart and now CEO at Hustlr, tapped into an essential truth- Great leadership is rooted in purpose, perspective, and constant learning. Jaimit calls teaching a highlight of his journey. Not in a classroom, but in the everyday moments of sharing insight and empowering others. It’s this ethic of learning and paying forward that defines purpose-led leadership. A recurring thread across the conversations was the importance of perspective. Whether it’s defining happiness with healthy boundaries, resisting the trap of chasing only short-term performance, or shaping client relationships on honesty and diligence, Jaimit makes it clear that, without perspective, even the smartest strategies lose meaning.

Meaning is central to marketing and advertising. A brand that doesn’t add value to people’s lives is just another service. The real magic, he believes, happens when brands create belonging. For Jaimit, marketing at its best is about weaving emotional connections, rooted in culture and human experience.

Interestingly, some of his greatest lessons in marketing have come from parenting. Staying relevant means not only studying markets but also understanding people, their language, and the way they experience the world. Looking ahead, he sees technology, especially AI, as a partner in intelligence. A tool that can challenge us, refine our frameworks, and amplify our productivity if approached with the right mindset.

Across all these reflections, one conclusion emerges that marketing, advertising and leadership are not simply about driving numbers or managing teams. They are about building trust, cultivating culture, and embracing change with purpose.

Jaimit Doshi’s journey is a reminder that growth is not just about doing more, but about doing what truly matters.
