Strategy
We believe Creating and Executing a Strategy is akin to solving a Jigsaw Puzzle, where it is important to have the Clarity and Awareness of the Final Picture, and thereafter start putting it together piece by piece, the most important pieces first, and then gradually the rest. This is true for Organisations as well as Individuals.

Practices
The Journey of Traversing the Path to Climb New Peaks requires Adapting to New Situations and Challenges. This can be done either by Experimenting which can lead to possible Failures; or by Discovering and Adopting already Proven Best Practices which by utilising in optimal ways can help in reaching your Goals and Objectives.

Tutoring

Kavita impressed with her mature understanding of financial accounting as it was applied to a bank and with her strong interpersonal skills and friendly disposition. Layer she displayed a strong understanding of accounting policy control aspects and critical USGAAP principles. She interacted effectively with regional supervisory teams and her career registered steady progress as she performed a variety of senior roles including in overseas locations. The strong conceptual skills that she is endowed with coupled with her quick understanding of business problems makes her eminently suitable to perform with distinction in assignments in her areas of specialisation cutting across a variety of areas in Finance & Control Accounting Policy and Regulatory or Financial Reporting. In her stint with Citi she demonstrated a strong capability in all these areas that led to many positive outcomes for the organisation
