It was a delight to mentor leaders of 3 SMEs as a part of NASSCOM's DISHA Program expert panel; the initiative emerged around the concept of building and mentoring businesses around the three pillars of Strategic thoughts, Solid goals, and an edge over the competition through the best-in-class practices. Heartfelt wishes from me to all the existing and budding entrepreneurs in their ventures. Lots of learning, fun, and an opportunity to build good friendships. Thank you NASSCOM for this powerful and brilliantly executed initiative. I am looking forward to the next cohort. Keep seeking and Keep Growing.
