Sandeep Aurora
Director – Marketing, Intel South Asia
1 The job: What I love about my job is the chance to work for an organisation that has an audacious vision of connecting and enriching the life of every human being on earth.
2 The weekdays: My day begins very early, if not with a conference call, then with a walk. Given the culture of the workplace at Intel, there is no fixed norm on the number of hours every day. Some days are shorter than the others while some extend well into the wee hours of the night with calls with the global team. However, what matters is how productive each day is. I am a people?s person and like to be on top of my game at all times. I believe constant connect with the team and, more importantly, with the customers is one of the most important aspects of a leader. I look forward to getting things done the right way and do not like long drawn meetings at all. I run the marketing and market development organisation for Intel South Asia that consists of a diverse group of professionals across public relations, advertising, retail, business marketing, market development and social media.
3 The weekend: Weekends are reserved exclusively for family, especially the kids.
4 The toys: My Smartphone and my Ultrabook are what I can’t do without.
5 The logos: The brands that I love are Tag Heuer, Perry Ellis, Kenneth Cole, Cole Hann, John Varvatos and Tommy Bahamas. But the brand that I love the most and is most loyal to is, of course, Intel.
