After a master's degree in physics from Banaras Hindu University, he flirted with business for some time but soon got fed up. His next job was at the State Bank group where working with diverse people excited him much more than balance-sheets and ledgers. In 1994, he completed the Fellow Programme in Management at IIM Ahmedabad with a specialization in organizational behaviour.
He joined Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) as a management consultant where he advised companies in different industries on strategy, restructuring, HR, BPR, MIS and IT. In his 20+ years with TCS, he moved across functions and domains a few times before finally landing in human resources, where he found his true calling. He has a strong penchant for understanding business landscape, strategy, organizational design, organizational effectiveness, creativity, and innovation. He likes learning and teaching through stories, anecdotes and case studies. He coaches thousands of employees each year using provocative and experiential learning paradigms.
His multi-faceted professional experience has helped him come up with many story ideas of which this book is an outcome. His reading interests include fiction and management. He likes to watch tennis, cricket and his favourite movies-sometimes on fast-forward.view less
