EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I believe that the best way to grow a company is to grow its people. I want to create a masterpiece of people development. Over the last decade, I have engaged with over 20,000 professionals in 15 countries through executive coaching, business training and strategic facilitation. I am passionate by creating the conditions for people to thrive, learn, innovate and increase their performance. My clients have included multinationals like Tata and HP. As an award winning speaker, TEDx presenter and author of three business books, I regularly speak at prestigious institutions like Yale University, London School of Economics and at C-level networks. My articles make the cover stories of leading industry papers because I have developed an expertise in social and digital innovation, lean business strategies and understanding human nature. I am looking for a position in a company in the USA because I love the American work culture. I want to use the experience and knowledge I gained both in talent development and from starting and running my own ventures. My ideal job is to do everything so that every employee in the company continuously delivers more and grows. If you look forward to explore the idea of creating the best people development system for your employees, I look forward to talking about the kind of workplace your company wants to be.
