Swati Bagri — CEO
I'm a Chartered Accountant with 14 years of experience working for Fortune 500 companies. My expertise lies in FP&A, Commercial Finance, Business Partnering and Finance Transformation. I leverage my analytical skills and financial forecasting abilities for revenue growth management, optimizing cost and enabling strategic decision making for business. Additionally, I like to make Finance simple for everyone and I use LinkedIn as a platform to do the same. Hailing from the suburbs of Kolkata, India, I overcame financial adversity and self-funded my education from a very young age. This career-oriented mindset enabled me to thrive in the world of finance and strategy and has shaped my commitment to personal growth and giving back to society. In pursuit of merging my love for writing and finance, I co-founded The Strategy Story. This website was meant to simplify business strategies and offer a platform for my inner journalist to tell engaging stories that inform and captivate audiences. ………… If you're interested in the world of finance, want to discuss business strategy, or share a passion for writing/mentoring, I'd love to hear from you.
