Manasi Kirloskar - The Boss Girl
The Teenager Today|September 2017

A persona of many facets — painter, deep sea diver, mountaineer, traveller and writer — she has already become a youth icon. Her entrepreneurial skills, of course, are also much acknowledged and reflected in the number of awards she has been honoured with over the past few years. That’s Manasi Kirloskar in a few words.

Manasi Kirloskar - The Boss Girl

Only child and hence sole heiress of industrialist Vikram and Geetanjali Kirloskar and the great-grand daughter of the legendary S.L. Kirloskar, as also a family name which enjoys a rich and timeless legacy of over 130 years and considered amongst the most respected names in business today, this brilliant youngster has never let her silver-spoon upbringing overshadow her down to-earth mannerism.

And perhaps, that’s the key to her entrepreneurial success. She is presently Executive Director & CEO Kirloskar Systems Ltd, as also Director on boards of Kirloskar Technologies and Toyota Tsusho Insurance Broker India Pvt. Ltd. She also works with her large  inherited business group. In addition, she has set up her own ventures as an entrepreneur and is even involved in community service through her registered not-for profit Trust “Caring with Colors” where she is Managing Trustee and CEO.

In conversation with THE TEENAGER TODAY, this ‘girl boss’ speaks about her passion within and outside her business realm and offers teenagers the perfect dose of inspiration.

Your family name enjoys a rich and timeless legacy of over 130 years and is considered amongst the most respected names in the business world. However, being the sole inheritor, do you feel the pressure of responsibility?
