The Peregrination of Jasal Shah
Jasal, the market research expert expresses that he is someone who strongly believes in giving latitude to people for manning some important task; everyone should be allowed to bring the personal edge to its task or else they will lose the differentiating factors.

Leadership, Challenges and Inspiration
Jasal believes every leader should have the ability to filter leaders, identify them, mentor them and make them even greater leaders of their age. He wants to make more leaders because today’s challenges are more, competition is more and hence industries need more and more overseers. In the same breath, he confesses that it is a challenge to introduce enthusiastic leaders. It is not that easy to be able to decipher any genetic configuration for a leader. People need to evaluate one on many factors, test him/her and observe its tact in difficult situations; challenging times and then only anyone can be able to find what industry is looking for.
Jasal acclaims, “My mother is my inspiration. She has given me the tenacious attitude and that’s why I have never given up easily in my life – stuck to the belief, made progression, changes and scaled to where things were envisioned. I still follow the same in my life and hopefully, someone will take this thought even further.”
