Aspiration is the first step to innovation. An aspiring mind will perceive the situations with fresh and creative insights. That way it will discover instinctively distinct actionable approaches apart from the creative exceptionality.
These approaches will allow us to review three areas: the precise problem needing solution, a novel tech that will create that solution, and a business model that using that solution will earn profit for the enterprise; thus, creating a successful brand.

An Inception Saga of Transformational Journey
Ms Ahuja started the business from a small room near her house in Greater Noida. It’s been more than seven years now since she started and there is no looking back. She had started this business with a mere investment of INR 35000, with a single client, with a very basic facility but with a lot of determination and great support from her husband.
Also, her daughter was just two years old when she registered her firm, but this never became any obstacle to her success; in fact, it added more and more success stories step by step. All of this success which she is referring to here was obviously not a cakewalk but with full of challenges and required a lot of perseverance.
Ms Ahuja mentions, “As on date, we stand with two operational offices in India: one in Ahmedabad and another in Mumbai with more than 200+ clients (and growing) across the globe.”
The Entrepreneur’s Inspirational Family Roots
Ms Ahuja was raised in a business family, as her father was a businessman and so the feeling of being an entrepreneur was in her roots. When she was blessed with a baby girl, she had to leave her private job to take care of her baby. She and her husband had a lot of brainstorming for her future career plans while managing the baby and then finally decided to start the entrepreneur journey. Ms Ahuja remembers, “I really wasn’t sure if I will be able to succeed in this, but the idea of starting off was firm in my mind.”
Overcoming Challenges
The initial investment, zero staff support and the responsibility to manage the family were some of the biggest challenges that Ms Ahuja faced. Also, to maintain pace with the competition, to prove her worth to the clients and how she can make difference was also a great challenge.
However, she says that she with her husband’s and her team’s support has been able to counter each challenge coming their way.
Adept Leader’s Transparent Ethics
Ms Ahuja feels, “The faith that we as a consulting firm hire staff keeping in mind the client’s business requirements and their challenges, maintaining the time frame of manpower requirement and being transparent with our ethics are some of the qualities that differentiate us from other competing companies.” And these are the values that the firm’s clients value the most and have been loyal in choosing it as their recruitment partner.
As an experienced professional, Ms Ahuja’s advice to the budding aspirants willing to enter the business world is expert. She says that to enter the business world, she would recommend the upcoming generation to gain some experience working with a good brand/company, become an expert in one specific trade and then think of starting the entrepreneurial journey.
Also, please keep in mind that it is not an easy sail, but will have everyday challenges, so be prepared for it.
Envisioning both of her companies’ operations with the emerging technologies and automated tools that are revolutionizing the business world by enabling innovations, Ms Ahuja says, “We have subscribed to the latest recruitment platforms to keep up the innovation momentum and we make sure to regularly upgrade our systems and practices with the latest technologies.”
