What excites me most about my work at o9 is being able to shape journeys of growth and transformation.

As a Talent Development Specialist, I’m passionate about building impactful learning experiences for our people. I love helping o9ers tap into their potential, build future-ready skills, and grow with purpose.

 

It’s deeply fulfilling to know that the work I do today, every program I design, is laying the foundation for o9’s sustainable success tomorrow.

I see every session as an opportunity to spark curiosity, build confidence, and support continuous development.

Blending empathy with strategy, I design each session to be interactive, reflective, and rooted in real-world relevance.​

When designing a workshop, whether it’s on interpersonal skills, personal branding, or strategic thinking, I follow a learner-centric approach.

 

I focus on the objective, the target audience, their understanding of the subject, their context and mindset, and where I want them to be by the end of a session.

Whether it’s about executing strategy or emotional intelligence, I always aim to create a safe, energizing space where learning is practical, personal, and long-lasting. My focus is always on enabling sustainable growth, not just delivering content.

Books allow me to dive deep into theories, models, and real-life stories that bring learning to life.

Books are a core part of my session design process; I rely on them for their intellectual foundation and conceptual depth.​​

​

They offer richness and context that shorter formats often lack.

 

I use books to design sessions that are not only informative but also transformative, filled with layered insights that stay with people well beyond the sessions.

With MyBookWorks, I can discover quality material quickly and easily. ​​It's like having a curated library of ideas, frameworks, and inspiration at my  fingertips. It allows me to explore a wide range of perspectives and integrate meaningful content that adds lasting value to the learning experience.

Shambhavi Jha | Talent Development Specialist

When I’m designing a session, I often look for ways to ground it in timeless ideas from books.

For instance, while researching content for my Executing Strategy for Decision Making session, I integrated Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits with The 4 Disciplines of Execution by Sean Covey, Chris McChesney, and Jim Huling.

 

This helped participants connect personal effectiveness with strategic decision-making. Habits like “Be Proactive” and “Begin with the End in Mind” resonated strongly when applied to real-world scenarios.

 

The same research also enriched my Campus to Careers session, which was well received. Participants found the approach both practical and deeply reflective.

MyBookWorks keeps me connected to emerging ideas and diverse viewpoints, from inclusion and empathy to systems thinking and future leadership. It has helped me refresh my content, explore new formats, and keep my programs relevant in a fast-changing world.​

It’s not just a resource; it's a creative partner in my design process.

Shambhavi Jha | Talent Development Specialist

Going forward, I see MyBookWorks playing a central role in evolving our learning strategy.

With MyBookWorks, I’m able to stay curious, stay creative, and continuously push the boundaries of how we learn, share, and grow at o9.

​

As AI takes over many technical tasks, I believe soft skills, or as I prefer to call them, human or life skills, will become even more critical.

 

Skills like empathy, adaptability, and critical thinking will be what truly sets professionals apart.

​​

That’s why I look forward to partnering with MyBookWorks to design more interdisciplinary, forward-thinking programs that prepare our people not just for today’s challenges, but for tomorrow’s opportunities
