About Rishad Tobaccowala
Hello I am Rishad Tobaccowala and I help people see, think and feel differently about how to grow themselves, their teams and their business. I believe everybody is capable of transforming themselves and becoming a leader by upgrading their mental and emotional operating system. I believe companies do not transform but people do but transformation requires change which is difficult. Change is not easy and in fact it sucks. But while change sucks irrelevance is even worse. Become a better leader, a wiser you and happier person.
