I am inspired by my late father, Dr. (Prof.) K.K. Anand. He was a pioneer of the management consulting profession in India in the 1970s. He believed consultant's plays an essential role in the growth of companies in a competitive world. He also believed that consultants with prior industry experience brought a unique skill set to clients and encouraged me to take the path that I did. He is the inspiration behind the unquestionable integrity at IndSight
