View LinkedIn ProfileExecutive Overview
Passionate about fostering a culture of innovation, collaboration, trust, inclusiveness and diversity at Tata Teleservices, most of my time is spent in listening to internal and external customers, understanding their needs, enabling them with tools and solutions to overcome challenges and move forward. SMBs are the growth engines of any Economy. We encourage them to develop a ‘Digital First’ mindset & operating model to compete effectively with larger competitors and ‘Do Big’ in their respective ecosystems. To this effect, our vision is to democratize technology and digital adoption amongst SMBs. With a career spanning 27 years across P&L Management, Corporate Strategy & Planning, M&A, Business Development, and Operations in Domestic & International markets, I have attempted to lead businesses on their journey to true potential and scale. Being an officer of the ’96 batch of the Tata Administrative Services, I have been associated with several companies in the group such as Tata Housing, Tata AutoComp Systems, Tata Communications and Neotel before joining TTL in 2012. In my personal time, a good game of golf is always a welcome break. While it helps me to unwind, it also provides an opportunity to reflect on life and work through lessons learnt while playing. “The most important shot in golf (and in life) is the one that we play next; you get good breaks from bad shots, bad breaks from good shots but you always play the ball as it lies... Being a typical Punjabi and a foodie, I always look forward to experimenting with new cuisines while travelling and embracing different cultures.
