Ep. 27 - Sheetal Sanghvi - 'Leaders have a responsibility to bring out the best in others.'
Description
Host Nicky Acuna Ocana’s guest on this episode of Leaders with Ambition epitomises resilience, both personal and professional. Sheetal Sanghvi, a Partner specialising in Innovation Reliefs at RSM UK, has risen through the ranks over the past two decades through a combination of adaptability, hard work and openness to support.
Her story of perseverance, which starts with the loss of her father at a very young age, will inspire you to meet challenges with optimism, knowing that “you can only achieve if you have experienced failure” When her lack of technical expertise was an impediment, she sought education.
When her career in corporate tax seemed hindered, she pivoted. And when a broken ankle (suffered during the RSM company football tournament!) side-lined her in recovery, she used it as an opportunity to reassess and re-orient her career path.
“I know that whatever comes my way I can deal with, personally or professionally,” she says. That’s self-evident in the super-sized confidence that Sheetal brings with her into any situation. She shares career achievements as well as challenges and wraps up with valuable advice.
By her example Sheetal is showing younger women – especially Asian woman – that they, too, can bring their authentic selves to work and find a niche that they love. “And if you do that,” she says, “you never have to work a day in your life.” Sheetal is certainly a testament to that!
