Profits and purpose for me are quite different. Purpose drives me and profit is something I thrive on. We might not necessarily mix the two in one entity.

For me, life has thrown golden opportunities. I feel have been able to find, both my purpose and passion. Working with Shilp Group has given me the perspective to contribute to the growth of the organisation with the help of my knowledge, skills and experience. It is the place where I find solace while putting my knowledge into action. I enjoy working with people and processes both. Strategic decisions that lead to profitability does feed the soul. When I sit and ponder, I also feel that helping people develop and grow at Shilp makes me fulfil my purpose. I am a people person and working with people thrills me. I also find the balance in my work at Shilp, contributing both to my purpose and profits.

I also found my calling and set up my non-profit organisation, Sneh Shilp Foundation. Working towards realising others’ dreams gives me a high. At Sneh Shilp Foundation, we are committed to making people independent, self-reliant and educated. Education is a tool that empowers us and gives us the base to create a future for ourselves. Working with women and taking care of their basic needs, hygiene and health is another area of work that makes me feel proud as a woman. Feeding the deprived souls every night fulfils my own hunger.

It isn’t necessary for me to balance purpose and profits because they are two separate things for me. I love my contribution to profits and I adore my purpose.
