It’s hard to decide which one is the biggest takeaway from the program! Thank you Meenakshi for preparing this program and sharing your experience. The accent bias experience you talked about is an encouragement to me….

Hi, I'm Meenakshi!

Thanks to an entire lifetime of living as the proverbial "outsider" - on account of the local language, culture, and my passport being different from the ones I was born into - my lived experience is all about hyphenated identities and a non-traditional career! :) I'm a natural at helping leaders and teams thrive at the 'messy middle' - the space where: People, Business, and Technology intersect and overlap; strategy meets implementation; agility meets planning; and our personal backgrounds have the power to shape our career trajectories! I enable you to identify, own, and lead with your unique strengths. I help you and your teams move FROM Ideas TO Impact - with agility, clarity, and focus.
