Learning and Leading Through Experiences

Shagun Chowdhary

Divya Shlokam

Shagun Chowdhary, is a volunteer at Divya Shlokam’s Leverage LinkedIn movement.

He says, “Sharing experiences and learning is a learning in itself,” and it gives him immense joy.

He believes that if people are given a choice, they will do good work if we give them a chance to experience freedom. He channelizes this in his volunteering work too. Breaking away from his everyday routine to help others keeps him motivated. Even at his workplace, he gives his juniors the encouragement and freedom to voice their opinions.

Shagun coaches and counsels people struggling with their career. Especially, during a pandemic when many have lost their jobs. He helps people in distress by sharing his professional experience and wisdom. For many this might not seem as social work as it is not laborious, but how many of us are willingly ready to share our wisdom and experiences to help someone else secure a job in this competitive world.

Shagun along with his 9-year-old daughter makes it a point to carry some biscuits to give it to the less fortunate whenever they step outside of their homes.

Shagun’s efforts towards the community are a great way for us to learn that sometimes sharing our knowledge with the ones in need, is also a way to give back to our community.
