About

I have spent over 18 years sharing compelling stories on diverse topics, including start-ups, entrepreneurs, small businesses, sustainability and diversity and inclusion. My work has been featured in prestigious publications like The Times of India and The Economic Times. I recently served as Associate Editor at People Matters. In my role at People Matters, I sought to inspire organisations through my writing by highlighting HR initiatives, strategies, trends, and technologies that are reshaping today's workplaces. With a particular emphasis on holistic employee well-being, diversity, inclusion, and leadership development, I aimed to encourage organisations to embrace forward-thinking approaches that lead to positive change and transformation within their work environments. Now back as a freelance journalist, I am committed to sharing stories of diversity, inclusion, and equity, alongside narratives on leadership, entrepreneurship, start-up innovation, and wellbeing. I welcome intriguing and inclusive ideas at mamta1226@gmail.com.
