The Magic

To my sheer surprise, my Convocation Ceremony gave me two, not just one, as the magical outcomes.
The Magic
It was the same sense of dedication and love for learning that inspired me to prepare myself to earn an Opportunity-of-a-Lifetime.

I'm proud I come from a humble background, and my struggles taught me a great deal about life.

I could see my father working overtime to earn a few extra bucks, and my mother closely working with us to complete our homework on time.

I vividly remember, my parents never compromised on the quality of education of their kids; even though we were not much well off.

Their innumerable sacrifices, big or small; instilled a sense of dedication and love for learning in me since my childhood days.

It was the same sense of dedication and love for learning that inspired me to prepare myself to earn an Opportunity-of-a-Lifetime.

And then, this happened!!!

I got selected for a world-class learning opportunity GLIK (Global Leader for Innovation and Knowledge) offered by JAIMS (Japan America Institute of Management Science).

I traveled to Japan, USA, Singapore and Thailand; and got trained, coached and mentored by industry stalwarts as well as world renowned professor.

Throughout this extraordinary learning journey of mine, I just remembered one thing my mother told me once, 
"Whenever You Earn an Opportunity, Don't Worry Much about the Outcome, Just Put Your Heart & Soul into It, Magic will Happen All by Itself." 
That's what I did!

To my sheer surprise, my Convocation Ceremony gave me two, not just one, as the magical outcomes,

One, I became the 1st Indian to receive 'Honorable Learner Awardee' by JAIMS (Japan America Institute of Management Science).

Two, my Capstone Project based on Skill Development made it to the Top Three Position by the honorable jury.

Having returned to India in 2020, I didn’t perceive Covoid-19 as a threat to my career, instead I initiated an Online Learning Community (with over 6,000 learners from across the world) and started catering to their learning needs as per the best of my skills and knowledge.

Today, I stand proud as an online T&D Professional who is ready to take bigger roles and assignments.
