Aalok was leading Businesses for over 15 years, this forced him to Master Leadership, Negotiation, Sales, Influencing, Presentations, Relationships or shall we say every competency around running a Business, just like a CEO should.

Over the next decade, Aalok was Heading Human Resources Development Globally, this enabled him to Master the science of human potential by leading initiatives like Change Management, Digital Transformation, Employee Engagement, Emotional Intelligence, Cultural Intelligence or shall we say every aspect of Developing Human Potential, just like a Dean of a University should.

Hence, a Business & HR Polymath was born.
