I am married to a businessman too.

The Decisions That Matter

I am basically an academician. I have enjoyed teaching and training students be it school, college or job hunters.Hence the most important career decisions made by me are to be a successful teacher, institutional head and a soft skills trainer.

Changes In The Professional Environment:

A lot of change has come.I have seen superior have more respect for me, subordinates and trainees have become more professional.Now they respect time,are more organised and able to manage time better.They believe in doing the work better than just completing the task. They look more confident& happy

Growth Strategy:

Respect and recognize their good work. Appreciate every effort made by them to do better work. Patiently listening to their problems and discussing with them forpossible solutions than just providing them ready made solution I think make them feel they are important hence beloyal to the organization

The Journey So Far:

I don’t believe in compromises, I don't hesitate to volunteer help to my superior, colleague & subordinates at professional front.
My students of Bschool are well placed & corporates love to have me as a trainer over n again. Bschool want me back for the modules I teach. This is a great achievement

Working Life Management:

Planning and executing the plan in an organized way helps me to complete work successfully in time.Professional attitude,focused at work place, maintaining good interpersonal relationship is the secrete.Before leaving office I plan for the next days work keeping an eye on every detail.
