Rajib Chowdhury’s 5 Top Mentors And Inspirational Figures

Yesterday we brought you Rajib Chowdhury, Managing Director of Paathshala Learning Solutions. An expert in employee development, Rajib has a lot to say on building businesses from the inside out. (If you missed him, go back and listen here.)

Part of being a leader, of course, is knowing when other people can offer more than you can. Rajib has found several sources of inspiration over the course of his career, from friends, family, and colleagues alike.

1. Tarun Kanti Chowdhury

My father is my greatest source of inspiration. I look to him for his courage of conviction. He taught me perseverance, passion, and respect. My greatest core values all come from him.

2. Sushma Sharma

I consider Sushma my coach in life. Repeatedly she has transformed my life and helped me discover (and rediscover) my purpose in life. I wouldn’t be where I am without her motivation to uplift me.

3. Bhaskar Bhattacharya

If Sushma is my coach, Bhaskar is my guide. He has been my referee in all professional matters. I look to him for his impartial advice and ability to stay objective through my ups and downs.

4. Sanyantan Nandi

Sanyantan used to be a boss of mine. Like all good leaders, he helped expand my horizons while I was his employee. He taught me to challenge myself and step outside my comfort zone.

5. Martin George

Martin is another ex-boss of mine. He always believed in me and showed it, something I think a lot of bosses could use a little more of. He also helped me to see the balance in performing a task and dealing with people sincerely.
