Areas, where I have achieved exceptional results are; delivering strong financial performance, improving service standards and maintaining excellent relationships with stakeholders. Throughout my association with Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL), I have had the opportunity to earn noteworthy positions across properties. I started my career as a Hotel Operations Management trainee in Food and Beverage in the year 1992 and worked my way up the ladder to Executive Assistant Manager – Food and Beverage at Taj Mahal Hotel, New Delhi in 2004. During my Food and Beverage tenure, I was involved in conceptualising and launching innovative bars and restaurants like Wasabi, Ricks and Varq. I was elevated to the Resident Manager of The Taj Mahal Hotel, New Delhi in 2007 where I got an opportunity to sharpen my skills in managing a 300 rooms luxury property in heart of Delhi. Recognising my talent, I was appointed as the General Manager at Taj Lake Palace, Udaipur, in 2008, which is one of the most photographed hotels in the world and is 275 years old palace. During my tenure, the hotel won numerous accolades and featured consistently in the top 50 list of T&L and Conde Nast Travelers worldwide award. I was involved in repositioning the hotel through the extensive refurbishment of rooms and establishing new service design and rituals. In 2010, I was appointed as the Deputy General Manager at the 543 rooms flagship hotel, The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai. This assignment gave me exposure to reposition and restore the hotel after it reopened post the 26/11 incident. During my assignment at The Taj Mahal Palace, my key contribution was to launch a new service philosophy called ‘Push for the finest’ that helped to improve the guest experience and move up the customer satisfaction scores. Being the flagship hotel of IHCL this assignment gave me an exposure to set new brand standards for the hotel that were later adopted for the Luxury division of the company. During my tenure at this hotel, I gained exposure and confidence to manage a hotel with a large inventory and iconic status. My current assignment started in 2015 as the General Manager of Taj Lands End, Mumbai. In this assignment, I have been involved in upgrading the hotel by adding new food and beverage outlets like Ming Yang, House of Nomad and Atrium Bar. We carried out an extensive renovation of the conferencing facility, 350 rooms and public spaces that helped to reposition the hotel in the market. During my tenure, the hotel customer satisfaction has increased by 15%, and PBT grew to the tune of 17.2% CAGR in last four years. As a recognition of my exemplary performance at Taj Lands End, I was given the additional responsibility of heading West India as Area director for 9 other hotels in 2017. My fortitude lies in the extensive knowledge of the industry, which allows me to maintain the discipline to be highly effective and exceed guest expectations while managing profitability. The one thing that has kept me associated with the company is continuous opportunities to learn and grow during the past 27 years of my association with IHCL. I am an alumnus of the Institute of Hotel Management and Catering Technology, Pusa, Delhi and have completed my graduation from the University of Delhi. I hold a master’s degree in Business Administration of International Hospitality - Marketing and Innovation from the revered Glion University, Switzerland.

  • Group CHRO, Tata Sons
    Tata Network Forums Global updates November 2017 S Padmanabhan Group CHRO, Tata Sons From the Desk of the Group CHRO, Tata Sons These are exciting times for the Tata group. Companies are increasingly coming together to leverage the Tata ecosystem to learn from each other, and deal with common issues. Tata Network Forums (TNFs) are increasingly playing an important role in enabling companies to come together and seek solutions to common issues. A case in point was the TNF MENA meeting which took place to address the diplomatic situation in the Gulf, when Arab nations cut off ties with Qatar. Tata companies came together at Dubai using the TNF MENA to understand the impact on their businesses and plan for mitigation measures. In the past six months, TNFs also enabled companies to seek knowledge and share best practices in various areas like Customer, HR, Ethics, Business Excellence, Digitisation, Communications, Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability. I must mention that the Tata Sustainability Group is increasingly utilising the TNF forum to spread its messages through the Tata Sustainability month celebrations and other workshops. Sustainability events featured in most TNFs across the world in the past two quarters. All these TNF events brought together many more Tata employees during these past few months, which is proof of the growing popularity of the TNFs. The reach and impact of TNF activities is gradually building, and I am sure that it will achieve greater heights in the coming times. As the Tata group celebrates its one-ness, TNFs will be able to connect many more employees and enable the proliferation of knowledge and best practices.
