Case Study 1: Large-Scale Industrial Turnaround
Client: Electrosteel Group (Steel & Coal)

Our Impact
- Restructuring: Executed top-level restructuring to place the right crew in critical decision-making roles.
- Talent & Morale: Built the employer brand to attract talent and maintained workforce morale despite significant financial and political challenges.
- Sustainable Systems: Designed best-in-class Performance Management Systems (PMS) and developed an in-house HR team on a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) mode.
Case Study 2: Global Strategic Alignment
Client: Tega India Ltd. (Global Operations)
The Context: An HR Audit was conducted for Indian plants and virtual locations in Chile, South Africa, and Australia to facilitate the company's transformational strategies.
