Business Leader with 25 years experience. Passionate about building sustainable profitable businesses by combining the strategic intent with the right people & processes. Strong initial foundation in HUL/Dabur with functional roles which were all about individual contribution. In Last 12 years done P&L roles which required me to drive the right culture. This helped drive ownership in different functional leads. The ability to delegate via driving ownership culture was critical especially when team sizes exceed a few hundred people.
