Imagine you booked an Uber and when the car arrives, the driver introduces himself as Prabhjeet Singh, President of Uber India and South Asia. If you think that the chances of that happening are slim, you would be absolutely wrong as that is exactly what happened with some people who booked their cabs from the service provider got this incredible surprise.
One of the initial posts about the encounter was shared by LinkedIn user Ananya Dwivedi. “One of the best advices I’ve ever read on the internet is what Sahil Bloom says- ‘increase your luck surface area. ’ Luck doesn’t strike you while sitting at home, alone. Step out, meet people, expose yourself to information- it all adds up and increases the chances to be at a place where luck strikes! I literally stepped out after a long time to work from office and guess who was driving the car, Prabhjeet Singh, Uber India CEO. It was a part of his primary research. (I initially felt something is fishy and had to Google his name and match the face to finally believe him) The serendipity is real! Also, it takes real humility as well as grit to get to the roots of the problems like this. Full respect!” she wrote. Her post is complete with an image.
Her post also received a reply from the official LinkedIn profile of Uber. “The serendipity is real! Luck doesn’t strike you while sitting at home alone." Wise words from Ananya Dwivedi! Thank you for sharing your ride with Prabhjeet Singh, President of Uber in India and South Asia. We are not surprised to see him in the front seat! #India,” they shared.
This is, however, not the only post about someone finding the Uber India chief as their cab drivers. Two more LinkedIn users shared their experiences about meeting Prabhjeet Singh. Here’s what they shared:
