Meet Neha Singh, a Senior Analyst with Colt.
Always found dancing
Neha is always found dancing and acknowledges how, although she isn't a professional dancer, she really dances from the heart.
"I started dancing as soon as I could walk and as a child my summer vacations were spent at dance academies. When I dance it completely changes my mood. My favourite styles are freestyle and traditional Punjabi dancing because you can really dance from the heart," says Neha.
"I never went professional but even today, anywhere you find music you will find me dancing – especially at Colt parties," she adds.
Getting to know someone first
Neha doesn't see herself as a serious person, as she says she is always one to start the party, and dance. She continues to take her job seriously, but explains the importance of getting to know someone before forming an opinion of them.
"People might be surprised to see me as the one to start the party as previously I’ve been given the feedback that I can come across as quite serious at work. I was surprised by the feedback because although I do take my job seriously, I don’t see myself as a serious person," comments Neha.
"I reflected on the feedback, and it really brought it home to me that it’s important to get to know someone before forming an opinion," says Neha.
Seeing things from another perspective
Neha describes her role in HR as being one where she tries to see things from different perspectives.
"Over time I’ve learnt a lot about myself and others. Working in HR, every day involves talking to lots of different people and it’s a part of my role that I love. I try to see things from another perspective and I never give up if I believe something," she explains.
Importance of never giving up
Throughout Neha's career, she has faced challenges but is resilient in never giving up.
"A few years ago I tore a ligament in my knee. I had to go through a major operation which means I can’t go to dance lessons. I may not be able to dance as regularly as I used to, but I don’t let it stop me from doing what I love," says Neha.
"It’s important to never give up if you have something you want to do whatever that may be in life," she adds.
