Naina’s career has been in developing Sales and Customer Experience teams from scratch across companies. Her recent accomplishments include being the first hire of a regional team at LinkedIn where she assisted in bringing inUSD417,000 worth of revenue in 1 year.

Another was when she was the Regional Head of Customer Experience atGreenhouse.co, a Pre-Series A start-up, where she built a high performing customer experience team and was recognised for Most Valuable Player 2019. She enjoyed sales as she could partner with clients to find them the best possible solution for their needs, while giving them top-notch customer service.

She proved to her peers that the landscape of sales has evolved in the recent years, and its providing great service that sets one company apart from another. She conducted numerous trainings on sales and customer service, developed guidebooks on these topics and enjoyed seeing her teams reap the benefits of this. Naina aspired to be a leader at a young age as she wanted to be there for people, mentor and guide them. She wanted to be that figure that she did not have when she most needed it.

Being a young Regional Head, she took lessons from all her past managers on how to lead by example and with empathy. She also worked with young adults who were high-achievers that had the motivation, but simply wanted that extra push to reach their goals. These young adults were people who were very self-aware, enjoyed being challenged, were always working to be better, we’re open to feedback, and wanted to be acknowledged for the work that they were putting in.

When she realised that there was something called a “Coach” and all that was mentioned above was what a coach could do for an individual, it was only natural for her to pursue this more. She decided to combine her learnings from Sales, Customer Experience, Leadership and Coaching to make her passion a business in June 2020. She now specializes in coaching young professionals to break free from their personal inhibitions, such that they can reach their business goals. She is currently working with other clients on different goals as well.

Together with coaching, Naina is an advocate of personal branding. Having reaped the benefits of having a strong online presence, she wants to help others achieve the same too. To read more about Naina, her Coaching and Personal Branding business, check out www.nainakapoorco.com

Another reason why she decided to start her own business, was her desire to balance her professional life with her personal goals.
