Seventeen years leading sales.
Twenty-two years perfecting it.
Across a career spanning 39+ years, KK has lived commercial excellence from both sides of the table — first as a national sales leader at some of the world's most demanding companies, then as the consultant those companies call when their sales engine needs to be rebuilt.
In his corporate years he held P&L and national sales leadership roles at Gillette, ADF Foods, Marico, MAPI Inc. (USA) and Kansai Paints — managing teams of up to 500 and turnover of INR 150+ crore, and driving landmark launches including Duracell, Gillette Mach 3, Sensor Excel and Oral-B.
Since 2004, as Managing Director of Sales Excel, he has delivered 200+ interventions for 90+ companies — with more than 70% becoming repeat clients.

People
