“Always stay in touch with the ground-level realities”, says Rajat Bhatia, SVP & Head - People and Culture at Fareportal.

Rajat believes in an approach to HR that is aimed at breaking the monotony of conventional processes and building a more transformative function aligned cohesively with business outcomes. To be effective in this space, he adds, one should understand the ground-level realities of people and effectively collaborate and work with the team.

He enjoys working in his role because there is always room for continuous experimentation and innovation. He is provided with an opportunity to work with flexibility and with a team of talented individuals who support and challenge him to become better every day.

Rajat’s valuable advice to early-career professionals would be to:
