If learning a skill takes you up by a level, teaching the same thing to others takes you to another level. How did your path shift from psychology to MBA which then turned towards Aviation up-skilling?
Aviation always been my passion, immediately after my schooling I did a diploma in Aviation from Cambridge university parallel pursued a Psychology degree because there were no option of an aviation degree at that time. Teaching skills always been in me as I started my career with Deccan I use to train my subordinates for ticketing GDS in my free time which shifted to Avsec & DGR when I turned as Cabin Crew.
How and when did you get the idea of starting the International Institute of Aviation (IIA)? Could you brief us about your institute?
It was not a Planned decision to start IIA, After a Medical Emergency landing, while flying to New York as cabin crew, Doctor declared me unfit to fly for 6 months and I was under observation, As I said the teaching skill always been inside me so this break from flying gave me the opportunity to train few of the candidates in my home town. Luckily 100% of candidates got placed in the same year and I won Bharat Jyoti Award By the Governor of Chhattisgarh. And the journey continued.
IIA started with the Aim to provide Aviation career opportunities to 2 & 3 Tier city candidates, which expanded with time to Raipur, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Delhi, Pune, Guwahati, Chennai & so on.
What are the unique things about your institute that sets it apart from the rest?

Future Cultural Challenges for Airlines And Airports
Introduction Assuming we are all alike is one of the greatest mistakes we human beings are making all the time. Another mistake we constantly make is to assume that our way of doing things is the only right way. So when people do things differently e.g. how people queue up or what we ascribe status to we try to educate them to do or see it our way. This is usually not well received and a conflict starts.
