From Nuclear Breakthroughs to Cinematic CSR: Haresh Sippy Challenges Leaders to “Talk the Walk”
Haresh Sippy calls on leaders to align action with vision through cinematic CSR and innovation.
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 21: Haresh Sippy, founder of TEMA India and a titan of specialized engineering, is redefining leadership for the AI and Green Energy era. By introducing the philosophy of “Talk the Walk,” Sippy urges a return to deliberate, quiet execution over the modern culture of premature announcements.
A Legacy of "Firsts" in Oil, Gas, and Nuclear
Sippy’s "Talk the Walk" approach is rooted in a career defined by indigenous innovation and being the first to cross the finish line in India’s most demanding sectors:
Pioneering Digital Design: Long before modern software was standard, Sippy developed Sigma++, India’s first CAD/CAM DOS-based program for the design and manufacturing of shell and tube heat exchangers.
The FPSO Frontier: TEMA India was the first Indian company to successfully manufacture the complete suite of equipment for FPSO (Floating Production Storage and Offloading) vessels, bringing specialized offshore capabilities to the domestic market.

Nuclear Self-Reliance: Under Sippy’s guidance, TEMA commissioned India's first private facility for Depleted Heavy Water Upgradation (via technology transfer from BARC). His team mastered the "zero-error" manufacturing of distillation columns and moderator heat exchangers, designed to survive extreme seismic events and aircraft crash waves.
The Philosophy: "Talk the Walk"
“In the nuclear and oil sectors, 'talking' before you have the results is a liability,” says Sippy. “I don’t know how to walk the talk as it may distort being deliberate; I’d better talk the walk.”
This mindset prioritizes deliberate practice—the act of iterating in silence until a design is perfect. This philosophy yielded TEMA's numerous patents and its reputation for solving "unsolvable" engineering problems.
Real to Reel: Engineering a Social Revolution
Sippy is now applying this "Nuclear Grade" discipline to the world of experimental cinema. In collaboration with Tapan Ghosh, he is producing movies with new faces under a "Earn While You Learn" CSR model.
Real to Reel: Capturing the raw, deliberate effort of new talent as they master their craft in real-time.
Reel to Real: Using the final cinematic product to create tangible economic and vocational paths for the participants.
A Message for Modern Industry
As sectors like Green Energy face "greenwashing" concerns, Sippy’s message is clear: Practice, don’t preach. When you focus on the "walk," the results will eventually do the talking for you.
