LEADtalks recognizes the believers in the marketplace who embody , , and in both their personal and professional lives. It offers a platform for young professionals to hear real-life stories from those who have overcome obstacles and undergone significant personal growth to become leaders in their fields. This year, I had the honor of sharing my leadership journey and God’s abundant grace in my life.
Growing up in a small village in Andhra Pradesh, I never imagined I’d be where I am today—leading an IT company in Hyderabad and contributing to the industry that transformed my life. My early years were defined by the struggles of a poor farming family, but faith, resilience, and education shaped my path forward.
Reflecting on those early days, I remember battling both poverty and self-doubt. It wasn’t easy, but my family’s unwavering faith and the support of my grandfather were pillars of strength. Coupled with my own determination to pursue education and better opportunities, I found my way from teaching to the IT field—a pivotal career shift that changed everything.
Starting an IT company and building a successful team was no small feat. It’s been an incredible journey, and along the way, I’ve had the privilege of contributing to the IT community through my involvement with HYSEA. My leadership philosophy has been deeply influenced by John C. Maxwell, and for me, credibility is key. It’s about staying humble, maintaining integrity, and continually striving to add value to myself and those around me.
My story, like many others, is a testament to the power of prayer, hard work, and continuous learning. I hope it inspires anyone who is working towards excellence in their personal and professional lives.
Thank you for joining me on this journey.
