Sarang Khare

Developing
People, Growing Businesses
 

My name is Sarang Khare and am delighted to have you viewing my website.

 

Let me begin by introducing myself.

 

Area of work

I am a result oriented Business Analyst and Corporate Trainer, presently in independent business /management consulting practice globally. 

 

Developing people is my speciality – so while I pick up business analysis/consulting engagements, designing and delivering ‘made to order’ training programs is what I enjoy doing most.

 

I design and deliver training programs in the following areas:

  • Banking

  • Business Analysis

  • Soft Skills

  • Management & Leadership

 

Philosophy

  • When you develop people, you also empower them and enrich their work lives. This strengthens organizations enabling them to gradually transform themselves and grow.  In the process, you also build the nation, for people are a nation’s greatest asset. Life is essentially about people, which makes the learning and development function priceless.

 

  • Business /management consulting and learning and development go together well. New learning acquired during training programs can be fruitfully implemented on ‘live’ projects and learning assimilated on ‘live’ projects can in turn be shared with audiences during training sessions. Quite simply put, they add value to one another, which is why I have a presence in both areas. It presents a win-win situation for everyone.

 

Credentials

  • Qualified as a Cost & Management Accountant (CMA) from Institute Of Cost Accountants Of India after completing post graduate studies in commerce and law from Mumbai University.

 

  • Certified Business Analyst Professional (CBAP) from International Institute Of Business Analysis (IIBA), Toronto.

 

  • 25 + years experience in banking and financial services industry (including 10 + years in IT) in various roles - auditor, banker, domain trainer and finally lead business analyst, growing and managing business analyst teams globally.

 

  • Visiting Faculty at Institute Of Cost Accountants Of India, Pune since 2005.

  • Qualified as Independent Director from 'Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs' under the Aegis of Ministry of Corporate Affairs ( MCA) , Government of India in September 2022.

 

Base

I have been based in Pune for the most part but my work has taken me overseas as well as to other parts of India from time to time.  Living and working in Vancouver, London, Hong Kong and Guang Zhou gave me opportunities to view the global banking business as well as the global work ethos. I have also lived and worked in Mumbai and Hyderabad for brief periods of time.

 

Looking forward to opportunities

Feel free to reach out to me ....I am always looking for opportunities to meet new people, renew old associations, create something refreshingly different and develop talent.

Professional Fees

I charge an hourly rate that is applied across the tenure of the engagement.

 

Fees are negotiable depending on the  type or nature  of  the engagement.


To illustrate, commercials for a 'made to order' training program where I will be customizing content to suit individual  industry   requirements will be different from an engagement where this level of customization is not required.
 
Similarly ,commercials for a business analysis engagement that requires process modelling using BPMN will differ from one that requires simple process modelling and so on. 
 
SME expertise will be charged depending on the  complexity of the engagement. 

 

Introductory meetings are free.

Sarang has multiple skills in banking business and information technology. He uses them to good effect to support complex IT projects, training and building teams. A no nonsense approach, attention to details coupled with an 'on the face' sincerity make him an asset to any team and organization that he is part off!

Charleson Varghese

Solutions Lead, Virtusa

I had the pleasure of working with Sarang Khare at HSBC for almost a year. He was our Lead and guided me throughout my journey from Programmer to Business Analyst. He is an excellent mentor, always happy to help and is very knowledgeable in the fields of business analysis and banking. He is a pragmatic leader with excellent abilities to lead multiple Business Analysts on complex projects. I was always in awe of Sarang's ability to command a room and get people on board with ideas, even people who were initially on completely different pages. I would like to commend Sarang for the way he interacts with the team and for what he does to encourage the team to success. He is never short of innovative ideas to engage people and keep the team spirit high. He is great at dealing with difficult situations and an excellent problem solver.

A passion for teaching brought him to corporate training after more than 8 years with the banking industry. Sarang was involved in designing generic and project specific training programs for development teams and analysts, then delivering them - the challenge was to understant the needs and requirement of domain training from technically audience and meet them speedily.It was a full time role. Two hugely popular program across departments and levels developed and delivered by Sarang were - 'Banking For Developers' and 'A Day At The Branch Of A Bank'. He also managed freshers and lateral induction programs , general training administration and research thus providing a holistic experience of the training function over an 18 month period from April 2005 to September 2006. Whatever work he takes up, he does it with passion, dedication. With his sheer hardwork and expertise in banking domain, he was recognised and rewarded every year. It laid the foundation for his subsequent movement to Business Analysis and Consulting in October 2006 where he continued to work , off shore and on site for the last 6.5 years with similar success. Sarang for any team is an asset and he believes in sharing his knowledge, be it Banking domain, Leadership lessons from epics or spiritualilty.

Sarang's association with Hexanika as an independent practicing Consultant has been on 2 fronts - firstly (and mainly) as a Consultant Business Analyst ,analyzing US regulatory reporting requirements and secondly as a Trainer, creating and delivering domain as well as soft skill training programs for the global Hexanika team. His business analysis work and trainings both have been well received. I have worked closely with Sarang on the business analysis piece and found him to be a good team player. He has a collaborative mindset and has bonded well with the team, guiding them as required.

Rahul Bhide

Associate Director , FIS.

Sarang's association with Imarticus Learning began in April 2017. We were launching a course in business analysis and needed an experienced Business Analyst professional who had the right credentials in terms of work experience as also teaching experience and abilities. Sarang brought more than a decade of banking and IT experience from HSBC and was also CBAP certified. We felt at the time that he would likely be a good choice and so it proved. The Business Analyst Certified Professional or BACP program was well received and Sarang subsequently conducted the Change Management Program ( CMP ) with equal success. Along the way we requested him to conduct a few sessions on AML and KYC and he delivered them with ease. Sarang has proved to be a versatile asset for Imarticus in Pune and it’s been a pleasure having him on our panel. He has since conducted programs in Mumbai and we wish him all the best in his endeavours. Thank you very much Sarang Sir for your contribution in the growth of Imarticus Learning – Pune.

We engaged Sarang in two roles - as a corporate trainer and as a business analyst. Sarang excelled in both roles - coming fully prepared with the right content for the training sessions and always having the right tools for his work as a BA. Many of the training programs delivered by Sarang required high levels of customization and Sarang's diligence ensured that all objectives of the programs were met.

Sarang gave a very useful training to the team at Sarvatra based on characters well known in Mahabharata.

I highly recommend his training based on Mahabharata.

I know Sarang as a visiting faculty at Institute of Cost Accountants of India. His approach has been very direct with the students and the students have appreciated his interaction with them. Being a hard core analyst, he always goes to the crux of the problem. Rather than move around in circles, he focuses on 'cause and effect' in any situation. His presentation on management connecting Indian mythology have been a hit.

Shrirang Abhyankar

Sarang made a lasting impact on me when I attended the banking domain training programme as part of my induction at HSBC GLT. His attention to detail, simplicity in explaining how banks work are lessons that I shall keep with me for my life. Sarang's to-the-point discussions were welcome by one and all in my batch. Sarang's session was the best of the induction programmes without any doubt! Little did I know that such a programme shall be the foundation of Sarang's mentorship to me and hence a long lasting relationship.

Sarang's involvement at HSBC was in multiple areas.Firstly, he was a 'hands on' Lead Business Analyst in the Payments work stream and built a strong team in that vertical over a 2 year period.In addition, training was a real passion with him and he delivered a popular series on management and leadership titled 'Leadership Forum' which we had initiated. He also participated in a number of initiatives including one that involved corporate communication and proved to be a versatile associate overall, both on site as well as off shore. He brought to work a straightforward approach and was sincere in whatever he did.
