Bio
Sudhakar Sodadasi
Nirav is a poised and a true servant leader with a well developed ability to relate effectively with employees at all levels. During the time I worked with Nirav I observed that his strength was perhaps in his ability to listen first. As a manager he carefully responds instead of reacting to any situation. He always tries to bring in inclusion in the team by engaging them and making them focus on the goals of the project. It was a pleasure working with Nirav.

Extremely efficient, smart & professional are a few traits that comes to my mind for Nirav at first. Nirav, in no time, effectively filled the position of a Project Manager under my portfolio and have delivered to the expectation. He demonstrates a high-value for customer, and does fairly well in aligning the execution / implementation with business & strategic objectives. His constructive approach towards issues, and quick & effective ways of handling complex project scenarios, really distinguishes him from his peers. He is innovative and enthusiastically participates in organizational initiatives, and certainly an asset to the team and organization. KEEP ROCKING!
