Before my present profession as a Career Strategist, I was fortunate to work in Global organizations like Wipro, Aricent & Microland in over 10 different roles in a career Spanning over 2 decades.

Trigger to become a Career Strategist:
In 2009, when I was once again at a Career Cross road, I stumbled on this question on Internet which set me thinking:

Having found my path, I worked on a 3 year transitions plan, while still working in a corporate role.
