Today’s episode is one of my favorites and with my favorite people, because it’s about people who shape people.

Joining me are Mala D’Cunha and Priya Verma, co-founders of Crossover Services HR, a Bangalore-based boutique HR consulting firm they started in 2003.

For over two decades, they’ve helped organizations, from startups to global tech players, build strong HR foundations, cultures of ownership, and leadership pipelines.

They’ve seen it all, 40-year-olds retiring early, the dot-com boom, semiconductors, mobile, and now AI startups exploding overnight, and the meaning of open-door HR.
