Where I Am
Currently, I am in Ahmedabad, India (not Germany). My father’s health has been my primary focus since his second stroke in Aug 2024 and surgery, which left him bedridden and semi-conscious. We’ve set up a home ICU, and while his condition remains stable, the experience has profoundly reshaped my perspective on priorities and resilience.
What I’m Focused On
After a low-energy end to 2024, I’ve stepped back into an execution state with a renewed purpose: Making Upsquare Great Again.
Here’s what that looks like:
1. Targeting Growth
- Growing Upsquare by $3M in 2025.
- Integrating Gen. AI into existing products.
- Launching a digital transformation business powered by AI and Microsoft Dynamics 365.
2. Redefining Value Creation
- Adopting a “prompter-AI-doer” model to streamline tasks, amplify creativity, and enhance value creation.
3. People-Centric Leadership
- Cultivating the mindset, skillset, and drive within my team because when they thrive, so does the business.
What I’ve Learned Recently
- Resilience is possible even in the toughest times.
- Tools, resources, and skills are only as valuable as their relevance to the moment.
What’s New
I restarted sharing my #dhandhekafunda posts on LinkedIn, alongside publishing my newsletter, The Radical Rainmaker. These channels allow me to share insights on business, leadership, and transformation while staying connected with an incredible community.
What’s Next
Co-creation of a shared future through Upsquare Technologies: BTS, House of Starts, and UCS. Focusing on aligning Upsquare with a stronger vision, doubling down on value creation, and building towards a brighter 2025.
