Were here to make sports accessible to a billion Indians.
If you think you could passionately share that vision with
us, tell us more about yourself
YOUR MOTIVATION (to join us, the type of work you seek, what
will your value ad be?)
I have always believed that a person performs the best when he
does something which he is passionate about and enjoys doing.
Sports have always been a big part of my life and i want it to
become an even bigger part of my life. I have always been a big
sports enthusiast, having played cricket, Carrom,Badminton. I
understand the passion for sports. I never got the right
opportunity to develop as a player and wish that every sports lover
gets his/her chance. Decathalon will give me the opportunity to
help sports enthusiasts in living their dream. I firmly believe in
Decathlons vision of providing quality sports equipments to every
Indian. I still remember the problems I faced in getting the right
gear as I lived in a very small town in my growing years.I would
bring to this company, the energy, the passion and the commitment
which is required in this field. And now having completed my MBA
and learned the game of business, I can put it to work by helping
Decathlon in its growth and expansion plans. I want to play an
important role in positioning Decathlon as the leader in this
industry. I want to be an asset for my organization and am
motivated to do well.
YOUR EDUCATION (Diplomas, Training obtained etc)
MMS (Sales and Marketing) Maratha Mandir Baba Saheb Gawde
Institute of Management Studies
B.Sc (Information Technology) Mumbai University
WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS (at
Decathlon)?
I am still in the learning phase of my career and I see working
at Decathlon as an extension of that learning phase. There is no
better way to learn and improve than to be in Sales. I want to get
exposure in this customer facing role, learn the basics of business
from the grass-root level and build up from there. Being in Sales
at the start, I would get a chance to apply the skills I have
learned during the course and also build a strong foundation for
the future. Further down the line I would like to move into more
strategic roles and drive Companys growth. 10 years from now I see
myself as the National Sales/Marketing Manager at Decathalon
India.
Leveraging 10 years of experience in Decathlon and the industry
and a strong peer network within the company who themselves are
high performing individuals I want to play an important role in
positioning Decathlon as the leading player in the sports equipment
retail industry in India. I want to be a part of the successful
Decathlon India story in the exciting years to come.
YOUR STRENGTH
My biggest strength is my ability to persist which means I never
give up. I have a strong self-determination and a never say die
attitude. I can keep myself motivated in difficult situations. When
I play I never give up and my competitors know this
YOUR WEAKNESS
I am a very emotional person and I tend to easily empathize with
people's emotions and feelings. Being very emotional I get into
difficult situation when confronted with saying no to a person. I
know emotions can be quite valuable when managing a team, but I
must also know when to put feelings and emotions aside in order to
make the best decision for myself, my team, or my organization.

I like Traveling and Trekking, Playing Carrom, Cricket and
helping my mother in Cooking

WHAT DOES SPORT MEAN TO YOU? (Show us your creative side!)
I feel bad when I see an empty field in the evening. I feel bad
when I see a crippled boy on the sidelines watching a football
match. I feel bad when I see a mother scolding her child for
playing. I feel bad when India lose. But at the same time I get
excited watching boys on bikes with bats in their hand. I smile
when I see an old man shadow practicing a straight drive. I skip my
lunch to watch India vs Pakistan. I dont know when I got fascinated
with sports but if I think hard it was when I took my mothers
wooden block that she used to wash clothes and played my first
match.
If you ask any professional sports player what a sport means to
them, they will answer that its their life. I will say that is true
for me as well as I share the same love and passion for sports. For
some people, sport is an escape from the monotony of everyday life.
For others, it represents past unfulfilled dreams. For still
others, it is just something fun to do. For me, it goes beyond
that. To me, sports are one of the most primal,realthings about
life. Sports transcend time. The achievements of a player, or team,
live on long after the game is played. Sports are a connection
between generations. They are a bridge that allows father and son
to share something they otherwise may never have. They bring
together entire country under a singular purpose. They allow for
people with nothing in common outside of sports to share an equal
footing. Sports for me transcend all boundaries. It gives you
freedom.
Sport has given me wonderful memories for life. It has brought
out emotions from me and people surrounding me which I thought
never existed and connected us all. I still remember us purchasing
the new color television just for the 1996 cricket world cup. I
remember watching Ajay Jadeja destroying Waqar Younis in the
semifinals and my father giving me a 100 Rs bill for buying ice
cream that day (which was of Rs 5 only). I remember how I met my
best friend as we struck the same chord conversating about last
nights match. I remember how people whom I lined up against for the
match became my life long friends. I remember how I suddenly used
to get sick on a match day to avoid school and mother getting
worried about my health. There have been times in my life that
sports have been the key reason to why I have been able to
overcome, to make progress, to enjoy and to forget. I cant think of
anything else which has shaped my life the way sports did. It has
taught me a lot about everything. I learned about competiveness
watching Andre Agassi battling Pete Sampras. I learned about team
work watching Australian cricket team dominating in every format of
the game. I learned about commitment watching Anil kumble bowl with
a broken jaw. I have always tried to inculcate these values in me
and improve as an individual on and off the field.
I cant think of anything else for which I have been passionate
about as long as I have been about sports. I have cried when India
lost, I have yelled at my team mates for bad performance, and also
cheered them for good. I have celebrated victory and suffered pain
of loss. I have seen legends play, succeed and fall. And I will
continue to do all that and more the rest of my life.
Albeit for just a few hours or minutes or even seconds, sports
are a form of medicine. Only you can't overdose on them.

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS PICTURE?
This picture was taken in 2013 when I was in the first year of
my college and we just won the semifinals of the intra college
cricket tournament. This is certainly not the best photograph of
mine as a sportsperson but has great memories attached to it. I was
just 6 months old into the college and was representing our
Department of Marketing. The Marketing department had never
proceded beyond the first round of the tournament. We were not
taken seriously by other teams and were considered just a filler
team. But we were motivated to do well that year and had played
superbly to reach the semifinals. We faced the favorites Department
of Operations in the semifinals. We were the first to bat and I
opened the innings. We made a solid start and took advantage of the
powerplay but lost our way in the middle overs. We ended up with 61
runs in 8 overs, which we felt was not enough as the opposition had
two batsmen from the University team. I knew we had to get them
both cheaply to entertain any thoughts of winning. In my second
over of the match I took two consecutive wickets including one of
the university players. I took two more wickets and bowled a very
tight last over to seal our win.I was awarded the man of the match
and we partied together for that night. That tournament gave me
friends and memories for life. Not to forget that the Department of
Marketing was never to be taken lightly again
