Resume

CURRICULUM  VITAE

A self evaluation:

Experiences from the journey from a backward village like Karatgi in Gangavathi Taluk of Hydearabad-Karnataka region to Bangalore have shaped  my personality. There were only two choices - accept a life of limited opportunities or strive to move forward, taking on the contemporary challenges of the 21st century knowledge society.
I have consciously opted for the latter and tried to achieve personal success without compromising relevance to society.  In addition to my resolve to succeed, studies in Literature have helped me to draw inspiration from the rich experiences captured in letters by the great minds. 
My travel within the country and abroad provided me valuable personal experiences  to evaluate the situation and relate it to the societal needs. I also discovered that I had some ability to write in Kannada; a series of articles in Vikranta Karnataka, collection of poems, a travelogue and a few editorials emerged out of this ability.  Although the above seem to be mutually exclusive of each other, I have tried to bind them together in a common thread of Human Resource Management and Training for enhanced efficiencies.
Besides my parents, many accomplished personalities with their  unique abilities of immense social value have influenced my thoughts: the humility of my learned Professors, insightful analytical abilities, encyclopedic knowledge of Karnataka’s current affairs combined with a concern for social justice and equity of Prof. R.M.Ranganath and the honesty, integrity, efficiency synergistically combined with compassion in the personality of various scholars– all have left an indelible print in my mind. I consider extremely lucky and blessed for the opportunities to associate myself with these great contemporary minds.

In sum, I have so far succeeded in combining  learning and training (hopefully in the right proportions) to perform as a socially responsible person, willing to swim in the challenging seas of 21st century opportunities, without of course forgetting  my obligations to contribute  meaningfully to the societal needs.
