SKILLS
ABOUT AMIT SARAWAGI
I work at the intersection of enterprise risk, internal audit, governance, and performance assurance for large, complex institutions and organizations.My experience spans board-level advisory, top-management engagement, and institutional assurance, with a strong focus on strengthening controls, improving transparency, optimizing resources, and enabling outcome-based decision-making. I have worked closely with Boards, Audit Committees, senior leadership teams, investors, and regulators, supporting them in navigating governance challenges, regulatory expectations, and organizational risks.I bring a practitioner’s perspective- grounded in execution, data, and systems rather than theory. My approach is independent, objective, and evidence-led, with an emphasis on early risk identification, preventive controls, and board-relevant insights.I actively contribute to knowledge-building and thought leadership in the areas of governance, risk, internal audit, ESG, and sustainability, with a particular interest in institutions that shape future generations.I believe strong institutions are built not just on compliance, but on integrity, accountability, and aligned incentives and that audit and risk functions, when designed well, act as enablers of trust and performance, not barriers.Chartered Accountant (2006)MBA from University of Bedfordshire, UK (2009)Alumni IIM-A (MDP 2007)Past Roles:Senior Auditor and Audit Manager at big4 Deloitte & PwC Consultant to top companiesCertified Independent Directors from IICA and life member of Independent Directors Databank Professor of Practice at Shoolini UniversityMentor at Startup India, Govt of IndiaTaught entrepreneurship during COVID at IIT-M, IIT-Bombay, Delhi University, African Universities & others.Supported various govt and NGOs Indian or Global like Startup India, Junior Achievement, PwC India Foundation, Narayan Sewa Sansthan, PM NRF, PM CARES.Also contributed literary articles at many national and international newspapers and magazines.
