Experience

1. Consultant to CEO & Md

   Larsen & Toubro

   Apr 2023 — Present · IN

   As I open a wonderful book titled “Lifespan”, authored by David A Sinclair PhD, which my good friend Sunandan has sent to me today, I realise that the word retirement can be spelt another way. Re-tyre-ment, especially if there is a sense of purpose in whatever one is doing. I transition into a new phase in my career in HR, that spans over 45 years. From Sr VP (Corporate HR)/CHRO in L&T, I became an “Advisor” to the CEO and MD of L&T for HR matters for three years and now I migrate into a “Consultant” role for strategic HR matters contributing to specific projects assigned by the CEO & MD of L&T. I am excited about contributing with enthusiasm.\\\\n \\\\n\\\\n \\\\n \\\\n\\\\n \\\\n
