Trust is the most important thing to be a great Chief of Staff | Anuradha Kumari | PayU
The most exciting part of this role is you write your own JD | Chief of staff series | Anvita Dekhane | Episode 1
I kick off our Chief of Staff series by having a free wheeling conversation with Anvita Dekhane, Ex-Chief of Staff to CEO at Baby Chakra.
Anvita is the product of IIT Bombay and has been a management consultant and venture capitalist having worked for BCG and Sequoia in her previous roles.
I invited her to the show to get under the skin of the Chief of staff. It's a role fast gaining momentum and credibility in the Indian start-up ecosystem and not much is written or known about it.
In this series I'm talking to six chief of staffs at leading international and Indian start-ups and multi-national companies to explore the breadth of this role. About The Strategy Podcast
