NITHYA AS A LEADER
Nithya believes that true success comes from finding happiness in one's work and aligning it with personal values. She sees success as an ongoing journey of self-improvement and staying true to her principles. By regularly reflecting on her actions and ensuring they align with her beliefs, Nithya strives to make meaningful progress towards her goals.

Leadership is not about seeking personal glory.
Great Leaders inspire others & spark change.
The future of leadership is about working towards a life balance instead of a work life balance - connect others with their passion and purpose.
When I think of a leader, I think of my coach James, someone who embodies the spirit of servant leadership.
PRIORITIZE SELF-LEADERSHIP BY CULTIVATING HABITS THAT PROMOTE SELF-AWARENESS, DISCIPLINE, AND PERSONAL GROWTH.
