Long term goal
First few years focusing more on CSR outsourcing while building consulting practice of my company , I wanted to scale up as a leading CSR consulting and outsourcing company in India.
Justification of my goal.
Entrepreneurship is my dream since college; social service is my passion since school.CSR consulting and outsourcing is the only place for my dream to meet my passion. My extensive experience in the field of CSR had taught me key aspects of CSR, how CSR is understood at various levels of the organization, how the goal of CSR gets diluted as it descends down from the top. I have executed multiple testing engagements for my clients right from proposal until warranty completion which have given me clear understanding of a consulting/outsourcing projects lifecycle.
I have always exhibited commitment and rigor in achieving my initiatives and I am sure my new company will follow the trend as well.
