Colleagues describe her as "As a Marketing Trainee at Safeway, I directly reported to Shalini Bhatia and helped her in the management and execution of several marketing strategies. I was always impressed with Shalini's enthusiasm, management skills and professional demeanor. She has a good logical reasoning ability and will always try to solve problems. Shalini is truly a great mentor, a compassionate leader and I happily endorse her as she peruses her professional career." and "Shalini is a talented, energetic individual with a heart of gold and a mind as sharp as a scalpel. She quickly dissects business problems to their core, intuitively understanding the drivers of a business, and suggesting potential solutions. Her diverse background in retail, food, online retail, and consulting bring a unique mix of perspectives and skillsets that is rarely seen in the workplace. The greatest quality of Shalini, as a colleague, friend, and manager, is that she relentlessly strives to improve both herself, as well as all of the people around her. She acts with great strength as a mentor to help others achieve, and supports her colleagues when times are tough. This quality in a manager is worth more than any technical skill, analytical ability, or deep knowledge of the subject. With this, she compels all those around her to (and thus, the organization as a whole) to never settle for "just okay" or "it works" - but to perpetually seek what makes people happy."
