In this month’s episode, Akansha Gandotra talks to Irfan Khan about finding your industry fit in the field of Life Skills Training and Life Coaching.

Listen to their candid conversation as they talk about exciting times ahead for this domain and what it takes to survive and thrive in this space.

Irfan Khan is a driven Life Skills Trainer and a profound Content Strategist with over 7 years of experience working with non-profit, developing organizations, and corporates. He is a thoughtful conversationalist and believes in the power of listening.

The journey of one’s life is predominately determined by their experiences and how one puts the experience to work. With his experience in facilitating redefined education to youth in Delhi, Irfan discovered a strong inclination towards learning and development. He was then introduced to the concept of Life Skills and the impact they could have on one’s life, family, and in turn, the society.
Thereafter, he set on a voyage to work with school and college students to impart Life Skills education and to bring in a difference. He worked with close to 5000 students across 10 Indian states. It gave him the opportunity to further brush up on and hone his beloved skill, writing. Developing and managing Life Skills Content and delivering them with a variety of learning strategies and pedagogies became his forte.
To fill the bag of experience further, Irfan then stepped into the corporate world as Life Skills Trainer and Content Strategist. This brought in the realization that managing oneself and one’s emotions is inevitable, irrespective the age. Irfan now is involved in the management of courses and programs content on professional and personal development.
For him, the purpose will always be to connect with people to elevate their self-esteem and help them.

Listen to their candid conversation as they talk about the exciting times ahead for the Analytics industry and what it takes to survive and thrive in this space. 

Gregory Streatfield, Founder of Knowsis, is a customer insights expert with over 18 years of intensive experience consulting on the use of customer data to inform business decisions and growth strategies across a wide range of industries. Holding a Masters of Science in Research Psychology and a Bachelors of Science (Honours) in Cognitive Science, he has always been intrigued by why customers make the brand purchase decisions they do, which drove his initial decision to pursue a career in customer insight. 

His award winning paper on Big Data entitled “If we are good researchers, why should we fear more data” initiated an interest and exploration of the broader use of customer analytics, data science and machine learning beyond more traditional qualitative and quantitative methodologies and approaches commonly used in Market Research. Most recently senior roles in the advertising and grocery retail industries have given him first hand experience in the huge opportunity for customer insight generated through the integration of traditional customer surveys with other rich customer data sources (i.e. customer panels, social media, digital analytics, loyalty programs and transactions).
