‘Being a woman has its own charm’

Keep it Simple Silly as we all know it. ‘Sales’ is no Rocket Science, it’s all about your relations and passion – how well you handle your clients at any given point of time, be it internal or external. It is very important to understand your client's needs and then match it with your offerings.

There is a very thin line between providing and pushing. To deliver what is required rather than pushing something which is not even relevant is the trust which every salesperson needs to develop with its partners. This trust will never let you slip either way.

Just the feel of being one of the most important pillar in taking my Brand and Stakeholder to next level gives me a Kick and motivates me to get the results taking my soldiers along with me.

HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY TRENDS

As the passage of time, even the industry is changing. Most of the investors are now focusing on Tier II and III cities. It involves fewer outflows and since most of the metros are now saturated, the projects are moving towards smaller cities. A lot of hotel companies are coming up with their low budget brand to cater to the market which was not yet explored. With the new government schemes like Make in India, Promoting Domestic tourism, Smart City, Smart connectivity through Rails and new airports, Health projects through UN/ World Bank there is a huge potential that was not recognized earlier. In a longer, this will generate more profits as compared to conventional metro hotels.

WINNING THE HEART OF THE TEAM

Managing my team, not as subordinates but as a family has helped me to be a successful leader. You need both Soldiers and a competent General to fight and win a war. General needs to strategize and plan his moves to win and more important to make sure that the communication is clear and the strategy is efficiently implemented in order to plan the attack. The entire Army needs to work together with a positive attitude in order to win the war. Having a positive outlook always gets you closer to your aim.

PHILOSOPHY

Since the beginning, we have heard that it’s a male dominating society, but being a woman has its own charm. For me, I was always equal to my brother at home, my batch mates in school and college, and my colleagues in the industry. It is just a mind game. Till today I haven’t understood the difference between Man and Woman except biologically.  If you have that fire in you, the desire to be different and to do something which you will be proud of, then the sky is not the limit for you….

I am my biggest competitor, my idol or role model. Whatever I do, I want to do it better next time. With an experience of 19 years in hotels, I can’t think of any other profession which can give me the freedom to be myself and to do things in an unconventional way.

I joined the Hospitality Industry 19 years back with one objective “To be a Team player with a Winning Attitude”, and with a conviction that “My tomorrow ought to be better than today”.

WORK IN PROGRESS

If we talk about Work in Progress areas for me, it would be to improve my Emotional Intelligence, trend base reporting, and Growing my Network.
