Bio
Kevin M.
Kunal is one of the best HR officers/consultants I have ever had the chance to encounter. Never one to just take the simplistic or easy route on a complex situation; he knows how to delve into the detail, get to the root of an issue and formulate an agreeable measure to resolve the situation. From a staff member point of view he is priceless as he knows how to connect to an individual on a one-to-one basis and impact positively on attitudes and behaviours; and from a manager's point of view, he is the rock to lean on when faced with a challenging matter of any magnitude. His honesty and diligent approach to work in amazing; as is his resilience to always fight the good fight and ensure every party is satisfied in any matter/issue presented to him. A definite asset for any organisation that has the opportunity to work with him.

It has been a pleasure working with Kunal. I have worked with Kunal on a myriad of inquiries and always found him to have superb judgement and great strategic sense combined with a no-nonsense approach. He has shown on countless occasions his commercial awareness in his handling of complex inquiries. What has always impressed me with Kunal is his people skills and a natural ability to bring the best out in his team. I highly recommend Kunal.
