Mohan has spent virtually his entire working life at P&G, and the company polished him into a world-class executive. I have consistently heard from others how inspiring a boss Mohan himself as been and why they have remained in touch with him decades after they had left and have achieved prominence in their own right. After knowing Mohan and hearing him speak and motivate others, I understand this!

He and his wife, Paru, have made England their permanent home. He is proud of his two daughters who studied in the US; one works in London (Financial Services) and another still in the US (Surgeon). He also volunteers as an Executive-in-Residence at the London School of Business and Goizueta School of Business at Emory University in Atlanta. Mohan came from very humble beginnings with very few resources. In fact, the East-West Center Student Affiliate Program in Hawaii - part of the Fulbright program - was instrumental in making Mohan a global citizen. As a result, he has lived and worked in large European, African and Middle Eastern countries to relate to the local social architecture.

Building Businesses in New Geographies
Understand and imbibe local social architecture before forcing your own purpose, objectives and goals. By understanding the local scene, you increase your chances of success. Geography is not limited by national boundaries and even in a given country, there will be significant differences. Mohan discusses watch outs and why standard approaches to expanding business in new geographies may not work.
Building High Performance Teams
Explore the “deep work” required to ensure team members' personal objectives are aligned with team's objectives. Making everyone sing from the same song sheet increases the “lift” by over 70%. Using examples and lively metaphors (like in the V formation of geese flying thousands of miles in migration), Mohan shares how to make this little understood and rarely practiced concept come to life.
Building Strong, Transformational Relationships with All Key Members
Headline: Not Transactional! Even when a mission is completed, key members continue to take pride in what you have contributed to help them grow personally and professionally. Friendships built during these missions remain life long and relationships become strong and truly transformative!
