About Balaji N

A seasoned escape artist from the high-security confines of common sense and practical advice. With more than 25 years of dodging responsibilities and mastering the art of looking supremely busy while doing supremely little, I've become the go-to guy for not really going to anything.Armed with many certifications, I excel at managing to avoid all forms of actual work, using finely honed skills such as the strategic placement of sticky notes and the artful crafting of bewildering buzzwords. My ITIL expertise is mainly used for resetting passwords and impressing people who still think IT is some form of black magic.Having a master’s degree in computer science, qualifies me to reboot any computer on Earth and ensures I can talk about quantum computing and AI tools, at parties, confusing everyone including myself.Based out of Chennai, I navigate the startup jungle with the ease of a caffeinated squirrel, contributing to the local ecosystem by filling coffee shops and occasionally answering emails.Why should you connect? If you need tips on how to look thoughtful in meetings, or just want to laugh at the absurdity of corporate life, I’m your man. I also give great advice on how not to take life too seriously—except during board games (like chess), where I am merciless.Ex-Reliance, Ex-ET&T, Ex-Expat, Ex-Generic IT Solutions, Ex-Serious.
