Nimesh Sharma’s Summary

Good at research, better at planning, still better at execution. Rsource Mobilisation especially for Team building comes easy to me. An eye for detail, with a good ability to customise the product/ service to someone's requirement.

I aim to be an entrepreneur of class ultimately in my life. No tall claims here, before they aren't achieved.

I am also an HR guy. HRM is a great way to entrepreneurship provided one has the right mindset, as in, say, I don't know Finance, but I can mobilise and manage the people who know Finance. I love dealing with people & managing them.
