About


Hello, I’m Pankaj and I write whatever that makes me stop and think, be it at work, technology, books, ageing, decison-making, building and leading organizations, ideas and concepts that change how we work, think and live. Because each one of us is managing, either our own self or our teams.

I encourage you to read the About/Intro to get a sense of where I am coming from.
