About

My focus before retirement was the development of a viable and vibrant system and infrastructure in India for recycling automobiles at the end of life. I was heading the industry panel on the subject and had given presentations on the topic to international and prominent national forums. A paper I wrote on the subject is one of the ten papers referred to in our Prime Minsiter's "National Action Plan for Climate Change. I also give lectures to corporates and educational institutions sharing my experience and insights on various managment topics. I write books! Specialties: Turnaround management restoring sick organizations to health, New Product Development, Human Resource development, general management, Warship design (?)
