Chander Mohan

Chander Mohan, born in a small picturesque town in the foothills of the Himalayan mountains, was educated in Delhi, the capital of India. After a few short stints in the Indian Air Force and private organizations, he started his banking career in 1973 with Canara Bank, one of India's largest and most dynamic public sector banks. After serving the bank in various middle and senior management positions throughout India for 17 years, he parted company with Canara Bank to permanently settle in Dubai. In between he managed to complete his M.B.A. as a practicing manager from a prime institute in India.

Equipped with the relevant education and experience, strong in communication and presentation, Chander Mohan decided to move from the hard-core banking career to HRD and joined Mashreq Bank, Dubai as the training manager in 1990, the year in which the bank decided to shed its traditional image and become a world-class organization through total strategic change and transformation. The next six years were too involving, challenging, exciting, and rewarding to ever be forgotten. The training department, under the leadership of Chander Mohan, took a major share of the responsibility in facilitating the change process.

In 1996, it was again time to move forward to achieve his personal mission of enriching and sharing his professional expertise with a wider cross-section of business organizations, industries, people, community, and society at large. A sweet good-bye to Mashreq Bank in 1996 saw the birth of Creative Management Consultants, Dubai, with a carefully decided business credo of "Ambition without Greed" and CMC's vision, mission, philosophy, business strategy, etc. in place.

In addition to his responsibilities as CMC's executive director, Chander Mohan actively handles various training and consultancy assignments. During the last eight years, he has trained over 7,000 personnel in TQM, performance management, leadership development, etc. in UAE, India, Pakistan, USA, and some Gulf countries. He has delivered a number of honorary presentations to various professional groups, educational institutions, and non-profit associations. He has received extensive training from world-class organizations such as ODI, Boston; Covey Leadership Centre, Utah; Kaizan Training, UK, etc. Global travelling, playing the organ, creative cooking, family outings, and intellectual debating are some of his favorite past times.
