Mumbai: IndianTelevision.com is kicking off an informal, fun series titled ‘Weekend Unwind with.’ It’s a peek into the mind of corporate executives – akin to a virtual water cooler chat. An attempt to get to know the person behind the title a little better. By having them share their nuggets on life and their mantras to deal with the curveballs that life throws – not necessarily revolving around work life – and sometimes going beyond work.
We set the ball rolling with Jayshree Sundar – an industry veteran with over two decades of illustrious career in advertising, helming agencies such as Leo Burnett and Lintas. Sundar is also a published author of books such as “Don’t Forget 2004: Advertising Secrets of an Impossible Election Victory,” and “The Tambram’s Recipes.”
