About Me

I (Chitra Lele) am a young management consultant, record-setting author, keynote speaker, peace ambassador, multi-time world record holder and award-winning poet. My publications include poetry anthologies, scholarly articles, research papers, and academic and reference books. Apart from consulting corporate houses in the fields of software project management and team management, I also devote time towards building a seamless web of peace ambassadors and change creators. Since I have been doing a lot of research in various domains, I also wear the hat of an academic researcher. Here in this blog-o-den of mine, you will find both the geeky aspect as well as the artistic side of me. There are posts where you will find me talking about my techie-skills and academic books, whereas on the other hand, you will find me talking about my artistic inclination and interests.

At any given point in time, I am either a management consultant churning out new ideas for my next book project or an author trying to figure out how will my new theories or approaches apply to my management field or any other domain. My management profession is a hub of ideas for my books, and at the same time, my books help me to validate my theories and approaches in the practical settings of the corporate world. No matter what topic or genre I am focusing on, there is one common thread that connects my literary creations–a youngster’s take on life and its aspects. Bringing change in others and that too through a youngster’s viewpoint, is something that my readers find appealing. And that’s exactly the reason why my books although reference books/academic books in nature do not sound sententious.

I hold several professional certifications in the field of software project management. I acquired excellent grades in several project   management certificationsCompTIA   Project+ Certification in Project Management, Master Project Manager Certification from American Academy of Project Management and Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist. I am associated with the following prestigious institutions, which have certified me as an expert in software project management:
1. Microsoft, USA
2. The Computing Technology Industry Association, USA
3. The American Academy of Project Management, USA

It is through my books, inspirational articles and poetry, I aim to transform people into a dynamic powerhouse of positive energy. I also strive hard to spread the universal theme of harmonic existence by sharing my poems through various websites, online blogs and print journals across the globe. I am also actively associated with various Peace societies and initiatives like the Peace Writer Organization, USA and the World Peace Organization, USA.

My skills: Corporate Communications, Business Development and Business Strategy, Software Project Management and Software Process Management, Team Management, Creative Writing, Writing Academic and Reference Books, Peace Poet, Technical Articles, Blogging, Mentoring, Setting World Records, Keynote Speaking, and Peace Ambassador

I have been conferred with the title of “A Versatile Writer” by the India Book of Records. I set this record by penning maximum number of books in a short span of 18 months in various genres. My books have set records, have received positive reviews, and have been praised by world leaders, best-selling authors, management gurus and business experts. Some of my record-setting titles are: Weapons of Mass Destruction: The New Face of Warfare, English Language: The Gateway to Global Growth, Organizational Democracy: Collaborative Team Culture: Key to Corporate Growth, Call Center Essentials: A Practical Guide to Real-Time Results and The 6 Spheres of Life: Unlocking the Door to Success and Happiness. My books are included in reading lists of premier educational institutions and have been the subject of several research dissertations. They are discussed in professional seminars and referred to in corporate training sessions.

I have received 70+ Commendation Letters from World Leaders, right from the Hon. President of India to Her Excellency Queen Elizabeth II. I hold 10 World Records in the Fields of Peace, Culture, Literature and Education.

I have always been an ardent student of human dynamics I am totally dedicated to helping individuals, teams and organizations. I am always on the lookout for opportunities to apply new ideas and turn them into something tangible of value. I find it highly fulfilling whenever I am able to lift the spirit of others by sharing my personal experiences and insights. Traveling around the world (USA, Europe, etc.) has made me more open to new ideas and visions, which in turn gets reflected in my management consulting work, keynote speaking sessions, poetry and books.

Apart from progressing in my computer management field, I have always wanted to contribute to the society in various aspects like culture, literature, education. I want to mark many more beginnings and set and achieve many more milestones in the fields of literature, education and peace-making. To encourage youngsters of my age to join the bandwagon of peace-making and social transformation is one of my biggest aims.

Apart from my writing projects and management field, I energize myself with hobbies and activities like making wall frames, ceramic pots and festoons, playing sports like badminton and table tennis, and penning down poetic verses in various forms like sonnet, haiku, etc. I had captained and won medals, certificates and shields in school and college at Inter and District level in badminton and hockey tournaments.

The two most important pillars in my life that have kept me going from one milestone to another in my journey—my Mother for her creative flair and unflinching support and my Father for his objective criticism and analytical skills. My parents have always helped me to stay attached to my roots and maintain laser-sharp focus on my goals.
