Ravi Nalliah

Chief Executive Officer, TrakCel

In 2009, in the midst of the economic downturn, Ravi decided to resign from a successful role as a senior manager with a leading regional accountancy to join a very small pharma contract services company as an early stage employee. “Within the first six months, I found myself on the board of directors and thereafter quickly lead a management buyout along with fellow executives,” he says. The company grew quickly and was acquired by one of the largest global contract services organizations. Ravi also credits his extensive travel over the past five years with turning him into an avid reader. “I have diversified my reading material to cover all aspects from career and work-related material to autobiographies of my influencers and general life and wellbeing literature. This has all in some shape or form impacted my approach to life either consciously or subconsciously and in the main in a very positive way.”
