Favorite professional moment in the past year?
“When my zero tolerance to corruption in India finally paid off and I earned a reputation for whistle-blowing against bribery, within my industry, on a national level.”
No. 1 role model?
“My choice of role models is a dynamic process. My belief that each individual is born with a unique purpose means that within any particular day I can be guided by a number of role models; some who have made a difference in the past … others who are yet to impact the future, as well as those who leave simple impressions in the present moment.”
