When I look back at my life and career, the word that immediately pops to mind is serendipity. Serendipity means happy accident and serendipitously the word comes from Serendib, the old name for Sri Lanka the land of my birth. From founding Wavenet and leading it onto the world stage, to the random chance encounters that have made it possible, serendipity has been there faithfully at my side. We are comrades in arms Serendipity and I, battle scarred and grizzled, veterans in a business world and industry (Telecommunications) that has seen incredible highs and also unfathomable lows. From monochrome screens to smartphones to digital disruption the pace of innovation and change has been staggering. Through it all we have laughed, cried, innovated, missed the bus, followed sheepishly from behind, leaped ahead, failed to finish and most importantly, learned, endured and pushed ahead.I am an entrepreneur, a innovator, an ideas man, a visionary. I am defiant, stubborn and cocky. The fat lady left the building as she could not find a song to sing.Serendipity and I are old friends, but we live in different cities now, we do not see each other as often. The void left by serendipity has been filled with experience, that teacher that no one likes but is feared and respected all the same.Under the hood you will find a wealth of experience in sales, international business, marketing, product management, project management, human resource management, product design and product engineering along with a DIY kit for starting, running, failing and starting again.Armed with charm, guile, knowledge and experience, I step into an uncertain future with a certainty of self. The certainty that I can do better, I can improve, I can change the world and make it better.
