Sneha Mandala, an expert in “Sustainable Peak Performance” for corporate and tech professionals, has been selected for the prestigious Indian Achievers Award 2023, which is being awarded as part of the Eurasian Business Summit. This recognition is a testament to Mandala’s contributions to the fields of coaching and Human Resources, particularly in the United States. Mandala’s recognition for the ‘Indian Achiever’s Award’ stands out in a landscape where Indian contributions to Human Resources often go unnoticed.
Sneha Mandala‘s multifaceted efforts in coaching, speaking, and leadership consulting are not only redefining career strategies but also playing a pivotal role in combating disengagement and promoting mental well-being in employees. According to research in the Economic Report of the President (2022), the government has shown a resolute commitment to invest in its workforce. Beyond financial investments, the need for a better infrastructure that tackles work-related burn-out has been duly emphasized by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. The pervasive issue of work-related stress, exacerbated by prolonged working hours, has sparked concerns, contributing to a surge in mental health challenges and a slump in productivity. Mandala, a vocal advocate for alternative methods of enhancing performance that prioritize “effortlessness”, stands in contrast to the prevailing culture of extended working hours.
Mandala holds the rare Professional Certified Coach (PCC) designation from the International Coach Federation (ICF), a remarkable achievement for her age. According to ICF studies, Mandala’s exceptional expertise shines through amidst a pool of 300,000 coaches in the United States, with just about 350 PCC coaches in her millennial age group. Not only is Mandala a highly regarded keynote speaker, but she also serves as a source of inspiration for her audiences, encouraging them to discover their ‘flow state.’ In addition to her credible work as a keynote speaker, Mandala has a track record of providing coaching and consulting services that consistently yield impressive results, including reduced turnover and enhanced performance for leaders in the business and tech sectors. Her practical insights, as featured on Fox24 News, offer effective solutions to complex corporate challenges across age groups. Mandala’s work, featured in a TED talk, revolves around making work feel ‘effortless,’ enabling employees to reach their peak potential and avoid burnout.
On being selected for the Indian Achievers Award 2023, Mandala expressed her excitement, stating, “I feel great about being chosen for this award. It is a great opportunity to represent my home country, India, as well as the country I serve, the U.S.A.,at the Award Ceremony in the UK. This will only help me spread my message further: that hustling and grinding is not the way to peak performance; effortlessness and flow state is.”
The prestigious Indian Achievers Award ceremony is set to be held on November 24, 2023, at the renowned House of Commons in the United Kingdom. This award has been previously bestowed upon notable personalities like Kiran Bedi, India’s first pioneering female IPS officer. The Indian Achievers Awards honor outstanding individuals and organizations that have pushed the frontiers of their respective fields.
