With over three decades of experience across multiple businesses, I have successfully led operational and cultural turnarounds that have not only provided direction for sustainable growth at the organisational level, but have also inspired change across the Cement and Bicycle industries. With strong strategic skills, a sharp focus on execution and an instinct for constantly challenging the status quo, I have enabled huge transformation in the fields of brand perception, corporate identity, supply, sustainability initiatives and corporate excellence. I have worked very closely with key stakeholders including board members as well as dealers and distributors to define elements such as risk tolerance/appetite, winning their confidence and commitment to bold strategic changes in the sales and operational pillars, forming a foundation to provide thrust and create a sustainable competitive edge.I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to help transform the way India and the world see Dalmia Bharat Group and TI Cycles, with a team that was easily the most competent bunch around.Specialties: Strategy and Implementation | Business Excellence and Turnaround | Brand Transformation | Process Excellence | Capability Development | Business Integration
