About Hemant K Jha

I am a results focused leader in the education industry, with two decades of experience in editorial, publishing, and product management functions. With rich exposure in India\'s education market, and hands-on roles in steering educational product portfolios aligned with strategic business goals, I have expertise in content acquisition and development, contract negotiations and author management, and in leading teams to deliver business objectives. Proven success in identifying growth opportunities, judicious positioning of different products, and communicating the value proposition through campaigns and integrated marketing programs give me an added advantage. Product development and management being my forte, a 360-degree knowledge and skill sets have enabled me to contribute to different aspects of business - market research and customer insights, promotion and marketing, sales and operations, customer journey and experience, and managing P&L. A rapidly growing and rewarding career at McGraw Education (India) has facilitated me to learn and hone my professional skills. A self-motivated individual with a strong business, product, and marketing acumen, I hold a good understanding of the education industry\'s multiple facets and intricacies, based on an array of strategic positions in print and digital product domains. Working as a solopreneur and independent professional in stints outside corporate life have given me experiential learning in surmounting challenges and survival skills, and have been confidence boosters for me.
