I am pleased to write this recommendation for Sonali. She has worked with me in British Council Shared Services as Manager- Talent, Performance, OD and Learning. During that time, I interacted frequently with her and provided guidance initially in the organization for British Council Behavior and values. Sonali is organized, communicates well, and is task oriented. Sonali had many responsibilities including Organization Development, Performance Management, Talent Management and Strategy, She has proven herself invaluable in implementing the Talent Management cycle with identification of Critical roles, Potential assessment & making Succession plans; carrying out Performance Management cycle with Goal setting, performance mid and final year reviews for all employees and ensuring Induction Programs. She has been reliable with completing tasks and has been key person in devising and implementing Strategy for BCMS. She was resourceful in orchestrating activities that needed to be completed within short time-lines. Sonali’s tenacity for quality motivates her to work autonomously and with great detail. Sonali interacts professionally with her peers, stakeholders, and employees. Her background in human resources has developed her ability to remain fair, equal, and consistent with all people in all situations. She has proven her ability to remain collected in difficult or tense situations by maintaining a cooperative attitude and her ability to solve problems. I find her to be a valuable contributor to our business, and I recommend her highly without any reservations. Sonali’s broad interests and understanding of Human thought process, cognition and emotions, in combination with a deep knowledge in her area of expertise, makes her a Developmental HR person interested in employee and organisational development. I would always consider Sonali over other applicants in case any positions come up in my professional pursuit.

Sonali is an active and experienced HR, Learning and OD consultant who comes with almost a decades of path breaking work in Organizational development, Consulting and Learning dynamics and methodologies. She is an expert with the latest methods, models, practices, techniques and tools. For Sonali, innovation isn’t an option, it is imperative.

Our training materials are developed and qualified by our in-house experts of company owners and founding partners to which Sonali has a wide range of inputs to offer. For Sonali, each client is unique. From the initial assessment of individual and organisational needs, to the planning of programmes right through to course implementation and delivery, She works with clients to develop a professional development roadmap. Its her style of working to see that the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are there to measure performance and ensure the success of the programmes and services. An approachable, knowledgable and passionate professional, Sonali has a deep understanding of Human psychology. Sonali is a valuable addition to any Consulting and Training team. Working with Sonali has really inspired me to be as successful as she is. Sonali is a truly amazing HR person, and during my assignments with her at the SapientNitro Consulting, I have considered her as someone to look up to, who always strive for results and show dedication and passion to her job on a daily basis. Sonali is very professional and demonstrates great team spirit both with clients and co-workers. She is very good at coaching others and is not afraid to spend extra time doing so. She is a very dedicated and highly professional individual. She is very detail oriented and always ensures that projects run smoothly and exceed expectations. I think Sonali is a highly qualified, extremely professional individual who represents her organisation very well and acts as a true partner to her clients. Sonali has the real-world skills and knowledge required to be effective OD Consultant and manager. Her leading-edge methodologies are based on the belief that people learn by doing.
