This entails end-to-end transformation from customer experience, business design and transformation architecture through to execution.

How Gaurav is building a better working world

“I enjoy coaching and mentoring students especially the ones on the cusp of entering the workforce and hence I’m linked to an organization that facilitates such interactions through the EY Ripples Enactus program. I’m also passionate about environmental causes and hence love to participate in events like tree plantation and cleaning drives.”
