She managed to figure out the real issues without actually being specifically told.  This absolutely amazed me a couple of times” 

Sarika’s strength lies in simplifying complex problems by understanding the system and each of its parts. In her own words:

“I believe that strategies need to be operationalised through realistic and achievable practices that every part of the organisation can understand and buy into, so that each person understands the desired state or the mandate that they are delivering upon. People are critical assets that can make or break your organisation.”
