Enterprise-class software products acceptance has been an area of ever-evolving challenges considering the changes in technology requirements to be highly dynamic.

Leadership

What do you think are the responsibilities of an entrepreneur?

Ideation and decision are the two main pillars of entrepreneurial responsibility according to me. Collating data points and the decision to create a product around customer challenges is the most vital component of entrepreneurial responsibility. In this process striking the right balance between team motivation, talent, finance decisions, and customer success is the straight load of responsibility on the entrepreneur.

Personal Questions

Can you tell us which your favorite book is? And your favorite part of the book?

“Stay Hungry Stay Foolish “by Rashmi Bansal, My Favorite part of the book is “Believers” where I love the fact how entrepreneurs don’t give up on their dreams even after going through a lot of financial crunches.

One person, who you admire the most?

There is no one person in specific, but right now I admire my team who are giving their best to ensure our journey to be successful.

Whose business story do you find the most inspiring?

I have been using Apple products for a long time now and I always wondered how somebody could get it so right with customer needs. It’s always inspiring to read Steve Jobs’s commitment to building Apple. I only hope and wish I could practice a good percentage of his discipline and commitment.

Which is the most inspiring quote you have read?

“If things go wrong, don’t go with them.”

Roger Babson

Constant vigilance- a need or a strategy? Please share your views.

Constant Vigilance in my opinion should always be the strategy. Product competitors, the market opportunity should be governed by a strategy. Little overlap of constant vigilance as a need will step into micro-management, which in my view every start-up or matured company should refrain.

It’s a rat race out there. How do you cope with that?

The practice of basics such as being in line with customer requirements, offering fair prices for our products, and constant innovation and adoption of new technologies should give us the edge in a highly competitive market.
