Chetan Borkhetaria, MBA’s Summary

I believe the strongest understanding of business will be informed by an even stronger understanding of people.

I'm driven by a passion for understanding people, situations, and the dynamics between them in business. I seek to create value at the individual, team, and organizational levels by establishing and nurturing relationships; tactfully exposing ‘the elephant’; linking the connection between people & process to achieve goals; fostering productive dialogue to build teams; developing strategic communication to manage change; impacting group dynamics to enhance collaboration and team experience; and employing a strategic process that incorporates a systems approach to develop organizations.
