NC- The strategic consulting machine

NC- The strategic consulting machine

Running and managing a business could be a daunting task! While, some have the experience and the technical expertise to run it efficiently, others have excellent interpersonal skills and deep domain expertise to manage the business. However, no entrepreneur possesses all skills that are required to run the business and invariably depends upon outsourcing or outside assistance to perform better.

Both the Founders of the company had unique journeys. What is common is the fact that both were highly successful in their corporate careers followed by failed entrepreneurial stints and subsequent successful ones. The learning from the failures is what created NC in the form and shape it is today.

Nalin Singh, the Director of NC, has held several leadership positions in India, Asia, Europe, and the US; in leading corporates of the world.

Dinesh Singh, the other Founder, with his over twenty years of experience in data analytics and leadership positions in Human Resource departments of Fortune 500 companies, he stepped out into the world of entrepreneurship. He has seen the ups and downs of entrepreneurship and now guides companies in change management as well as entrepreneurs on the execution of business plans.

He strives to bring maximum efficiency in processes and continuously improve. The one word that describes Nalin is ‘ Energy’. He has tremendous energy and enthusiasm with an uncanny knack for identifying new opportunities. He strives to create an organization that delivers rather than just talk.

The company is optimistic of the fact that growth will come from India, companies from India going international and companies from other geographies in the Asia-Pacific region will add to its business.
