WORKING
AT LISTENLIGHTS
NITHIN PILLAI
// General Manager - Planning and Design •• Mumbai
What is a typical workday like for you?
I have a disagreement with a typical workday as I believe iterative work doesn't contribute to growth. Definitely for sustainability, I have come through a period of such typical conditions. I can say that there are a few things that are typical for me and I believe that is required. I like to start each day by going over my calendar to make sure any calls or meetings I have are top of mind and I get any prep work for those done first thing. Then, I usually answer my emails while I’m still fresh. I go through my salesforce and address all pendency from my team. I neither believe in nor encourage my team to work long hours every day. I encourage myself and my team to complete the tasks within the timeframe.
