About Uma Dey

After nearly two decades of joyful professional experience in talent management and leadership development, I have earned my identity as a \"competent and empathetic\" HR professional from stakeholders at global brands such as Cognizant and Capgemini, where I had been defined by partnering with business architects and leaders to co-create impactful talent solutions.My passion for self-learning and growth has led me to achieve certifications including:* NLP Business Practitioner* HRCI – SPHRi* Associate Certified Coach (ACC) from the International Coaching Federation (ICF)These milestones keep me grounded while inspiring me to continually strive for excellence and evolve into a better version of myself.Surviving Stage 3 ovarian cancer gave me a renewed perspective on life. Today, I dedicate this second innings to serving individuals, corporations, and my coaching community — using my circle of influence to foster growth, resilience, and transformation. This is precisely the intention of forming Creative Insights with my peer coach, ICF Kolkata Chapter Board Member & veteran HR, Shri Partho Chatterjee.As an independent Coach and Organizational Development Consultant, I am committed to enabling leaders and organizations to thrive. My work extends beyond corporates into the social sector, where I actively volunteer as a Leadership Coach and HR-OD Consultant with Cachar Cancer Hospital & Research Centre (CCHRC), Silchar, Assam), founded by Dr. Ravi Kannan (Padma Shri & Magsaysay Awardee).Having had the privilege of knowing and working with Dr. Ravi Kannan, I carry forward a serving mindset. This inspires me to collaborate with start-ups like IBDK, led by Dr. Soumen Das, a medical professional of international repute, whose vision behind creation of IBDK is to make breast cancer detection early so that chance of curing the patient maximises. With this brief introduction, Creative Insights is here to serve you or your organization in the journey of growth and excellence.
