Could you tell us briefly about your family background?

I belongs to a middle class Indian family and did my studies from Delhi. My father is employed in Delhi Police and my mother is a house wife. My parents are not much qualified but provide to all their children a good education. I did my Masters in Personnel Management from Pune University in 2006.

Role Model:

Growth Strategy:

I keep updating my self with the latest changes in national and international market and never drop a habit of reading.

Changes In The Professional Environment:

Now the competition in professional market has increased and the availability of professionals in the market is more and qualified people are available on low salaries which also affect the value of education and increase the competition.

My wife is also a professionally qualified and she supports me as much as she can do. Also there is saying 'behind a successful man there is a woman'. I balance my work and personal life equal.

Other Thoughts:

Job Profile:

I am on the position of Human Resource Manager and holding a senior position in the organisation. I am in second line in our company's hierarchy.

Advice For New Professionals:

Always keep your aim in your mind and never divert your career here and there to get the temporary job opportunities and money as that may give you a small span of success but can't help you to achieve your goals.

The Decisions That Matter

I am clear with my vision and I have clear foresight for my career growth.

Plans For The Future:
