Tell us more about Image Management, its meaning according to you, and the distinguishable aspects about The Better Zone.
Many think Image Management deals with fashion, looks and outer appearances; however, my way of offering these solutions involves total transformation of an individual. Working on the inner image, confidence, life skills, capabilities and behaviour which reflects on the outer image of a person, and working on refining personality, appearance, conduct, relationships at work and otherwise, both need to sync well.
I believe in perspectives and ambitions; hence, I encourage people to be their authentic self, but also to explore different dimensions of themselves as well as the world around and become better each day. My natural flair to understand people, affable communication and creativity lets me connect well with people and bring about the desired positive, meaningful and beneficial shift in their lives. Dynamic inclusive learning environment, versatile training style, and high professionalism with warm approachability are some significant factors of our sessions.
What are the various programs that you offer?
In Image Management, I cover the Art of the First Impression, Dressing & Grooming, Styling & Accessorizing, and Professional Image Management, which includes their Style & Personality Analysis, Wardrobe Management, Etiquette, Overall Lifestyle Development and Personal Branding. Soft Skills include many essential topics such as Communication, Body Language & Behaviour, Emotional Intelligence, Team Management, Leadership, Time management, Stress management, Goal Setting, Presentation & Public Speaking, Customer Service, Motivation & Confidence Building, Interview Skills, Campus to Corporate programs and more.
I blend modules from these areas to create unique customized programs best suited for my clients, leading to overall personal development of individual employees and the organization at large.

How do you ensure the quality of your programs?
Tell us about the techniques &
methodologies that you use while offering these programs. Former corporate work
exposure in IT MNCs has been beneficial to me in understanding organizational conduct, multicultural environment, work excellence and high-quality service. One of the fundamental ways to ensure the quality is to really listen, right from people’s expectations to feedback, to their relevant participation and interaction. This lets me craft better solutions incorporating different training methods, case studies, questionnaires, activities, role plays, tools and techniques to engage them in visual, audio, and self-involvement experiences. It helps accommodate different types of learners to achieve better understanding, faster learning and improved efficiency, consequently resulting in productive implementation and amazing feedbacks.
What kind of opportunity do you foresee in the current image management industry of India, and what are your future plans?
The Soft Skills segment was always there, and recently, there has been increasing awareness, globally of the importance of Image Enhancement and how it catalyses progress. Hence, the opportunity that I see is huge. In order to align with this flourishing need, I plan to design some more innovative programs in addition to the existing portfolio and intend to do some online and offline collaborations. I work with many sectors like Automobile, Education, Business Institutes, IT, Manufacturing, Consulting, Marketing, Finance and Management Institutes, and would love to explore more!.
