About

Hi, I am Vinita Bansal. Technology enthusiast passionate about building great teams and scaling organisations. 

I love geeking about practices to think better and exploring ideas, principles and mental models for living a purposeful and meaningful work life. 

I have worked with some of the great companies like Swiggy, Flipkart, DailyHunt and Trilogy. My writing is inspired from all the experiences at work that shaped up my thinking, people who taught me to be a better version of myself and countless hours of getting lost and pouring myself into the writings of people from multiple domains and disciplines.  

Drawing inspiration from Charlie Munger “I believe in the discipline of mastering the best that other people have ever figured out. I don’t believe in just sitting down and trying to dream it all up yourself. Nobody’s that smart”

I occasionally like to pack my bags and travel around the world with my family. Travelling not only refuels my mind and body, it helps me embrace everything with an open mindset. 

Skills I am currently working on: Deep focussed work 

I practice: Gratitude journaling twice a day

My fixation: Yoga and salsa dancing 

My sense of essentialism: Learn and be better everyday 

I prioritise: What’s under my control

I don’t waste time on: Things outside my circle of influence

I don’t like: People who say one thing and do another thing 

Go to books: Refer my personal library of recommended books

My latest mantra: Think what’s right to think, not what’s easy to think

I hope to connect with my readers in ways that bring great value to their work life. Whether you are a leader, manager or an individual contributor, you will find timeless ideas in my weekly newsletter. Join it now!
