Akhil has exceptional depth and breadth of strategy building and true blue consulting. He brings a wealth of knowledge in market research, competitor research, financial modelling and top management interviews. Being part of his team at Tecnova was a great experience - as a manager, he lets you learn on your own terms, stay true to client's objectives and deliver in time. Having worked in two different firms with Akhil, I would surely credit a good part of my consulting learning experience to him. Off-work, he is a Fun guy to be with and impresses with his knowledge about Indian History, Global happenings and current affairs! Wishing you the best in life!
