Personal statement 

Reflecting on a famous Sanskrit phrase “Vasudhaive Kutmbakam” which means “the world is one family,” it is important for us to acquire a broader vision of sustainable growth, human development and global trade.

In today’s world, with technology as an enabler, every small business decision has the capability to leave a long-term effect. It is imperative that we understand these effects in order to create a pro-human ecosystem where sustainable growth and global trade can take place. 

I had an opportunity to explore and experience these effects at the early age of 15, when I first stepped out of my home country of India to travel to Singapore. This was the beginning of a learning journey for me, which has led me to where I am today. I now speak five languages, have worked in four countries, have travelled in 15 countries and had hands-on experience in three very different industries. 

In my current role as a Director of International Business at Yeah1 Group Corporation, I have had the opportunity to make significant contributions in the areas of cross-cultural negotiation, crisis management, market entry strategy and innovation. These contributions have further fueled my curiosity to learn more about the similarities shared between different cultures while holding on to their uniqueness.   

With my experience, I’m confident I will be an asset to our cohort and future global trade leaders enrolled in this program.
