“We are one of the finest software service providers in the world”

Yogesh Sood, India Empire Magazine’s Consulting Editor (Business), interviews Mr Asoke K Laha, Founder, President and CEO, InterraIT ...

With a successful business how do you intend to pay back to the society in general?
We have a very interesting program of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). We are working closely with Noida and UP government in fighting the menace of gender abuse and discrimination. InterraIT has developed mobile apps which women employees of the whole area can use to inform police and seek official help. In fact my company is highly concerned about women’s progress and we undertake CSR with this idea into our heads. Apart from this we also help needy children with computers, needy students with computer education and so forth.

What you will figure as a major differing point between employees and what makes them different.

Communication and ownership. I would say we should hire people with A+ communication skills only. That makes your team integrally different to serve gl;obal clientele like we have. We have a very bubbly Toastmaster Club in our company which helps people to develop, improve their communication and leadership skills in a completely non threatening way. I myself take lot of interest in the club and mentor many members to go ahead in their life and career. As the leader I consider it my duty to lead them from the front and coach them through practical hassles of career.

About ownership I will only mention that I view my employees as “ individual corporation”s, this idea was read by me long back. I have nurtured these values ever since. I encourage every individual employee to behave like a business unit on his or her own and make the work profitable in this way. This is the way one learns to take ownership.

What is your chief hobby or pastime.

I would say I enjoy reading management books and watching videos of synergic values. With age and time I am having more faith in spreading right ideas all around you.
