“I had the pleasure to hire in Gaurav as a management rotation associate at Sears and then later to work with him on some high-value online experience initiatives. Gaurav's key differentiator is that he's not afraid to try new ideas where it helps advance customer experience goals. I still remember him conducting a design thinking workshop with a team of about 15 individuals, that yielded some significant insights into our customer's main pain areas that we otherwise would not have found. Gaurav planned, socialized and eventually conducted the workshop all on his own and delivered a very useful set of actionable TODOs. This is one instance of many where I found him ready to take the extra step over and above his strict charter in order to get to the bottom of customer experience. Gaurav would be a great addition to any team that wants to focus on delivering excellent value to the customer. ”
