profile

Rahul Karwa

I am a seasoned business turnaround specialist and a Sales / Marketing / Communications expert with over 20 years of experience, who thrives on building winning teams and prolific businesses. With a career marked by engagements with esteemed companies like WPP, Ogilvy, DDB Mudra, VMLY&R, and Reliance Capital, my current pivotal role at Shipyaari, a SaaS-based logistics solutions provider, reflects my unwavering dedication to excellence and experimentation. Throughout my 15-year leadership journey, I have demonstrated skill in managing diverse P&Ls, consistently delivering business growth by adeptly handling people, processes, and profits. My bold and creative problem-solving approach, fuelled by a genuine enthusiasm for both ideas and numbers, has led to the success of multiple start-ups and business turnarounds. As an empathetic and people-oriented leader, I prioritise inspiring and mentoring teams, cultivating workplaces that are both fun and fair. Beyond my professional pursuits, I find fulfilment in my passion for yoga, music, Bollywood, and teaching. Fun-filled moments with family and friends are my lifelines, and I am an enthusiastic road tripper, despite a less-than-perfect sense of direction. Over the weekends, I am a professor, a family man, a chef and a singer in making.
