My professional inspiration is not different from personal inspiration. It is people who will stop at
nothing to make a positive difference to other people’s lives. I am fortunate to have the desire to help as
a coach, mentor and guide to all those professionals across the world and to contribute and improve the
agile community through several outreach programs.

I am always willing to learn, I insist on continuous improvement,

whether it’s my presentation, writing, or teaching skills, or
related to Project/ Program/ Portfolio Management, Agile, or any
other subjects. I enjoy learning and welcome feedback, that
makes me a better person every other day.

My journey to a Mentor, started when I was 11 years old, and it

has been very challenging and exciting as well. This was
necessitated, out of necessity to survive, as I was born and raised
in a very humble family. An opportunity came knocking my door
when one of my friends had certain difficulties in mathematics
and I helped him pass the exam with flying colors, and that’s how
it all started, out of necessity providing coaching to students.

In my 27 years of career, I learned through my experiences, mistakes and when I share my experiences
with others it gives me immense contentment. My desire to help people, learn and grow in their
professional life is something which drives and gives me inner satisfaction.

I approach my mentees with just the right amount of curiosity to help them uncover their strengths, work
towards a preferred future, and move through the mindsets and problems that are not working for them,
and help them find their best stuff.

At this time, while I am writing this, I have conducted more than 10,000’s of training program on various
subjects, be it inside or outside of the organization, all over the world, be it Canada, USA, Middle East,
Australia, New Zealand, India, Srilanka, & etc. While, working with IBM, I volunteered myself to be a
trainer on various subjects for all the aspiring and motivated candidates. I have more than 10 K followers
on the LinkedIn @ www.linkedin.com/in/coach4you
