Manoj is a passionate guy with a creative bend of mind. He is a Chemical Engineer (Pune University) & an MBA (Symbiosis, Pune). His 16 years career, before co-founding myNalanda, spans across large corporates & small-to-mid size IT & research companies such as, IBM, EMC Data Storage, Misys, Sanovi, Proteans, Wipro Technologies, & National Chemical Laboratory. He loves to meet people & have stimulating conversations. He believes that selling is resonating to the customers’ needs to arrive at a solution together.
As a framework-level thinker, he approaches the problems strategically & systematically. Being a son of a school-teacher, he strongly feels for the cause of education. He believes that if India wants to progress to the next level of value chain, we need to strengthen our education & make it more realistic. For that, we need to identify our strengths & build them further to our advantage. This is possible only if we analyse ourselves & take more informed and data-driven decisions.
