I am passionate about people development. During my career, I have facilitated more than 400 classroom training sessions, covering more than 10K students with excellent feedback. I love to share my experience that I have gathered during my professional career, as I am a strong believer that experience sharing carries more value than typical bookish knowledge.
Since the reach of the classroom sessions is limited to people of one location, that’s why I am here to share my knowledge among everyone across geographies. Hope you will enjoy my teaching.
