Prior to his current roles, Muneesh was the MD of CIO Network, a peer-to-peer subscription-based community of IT executives. The objective of the forum was to provide senior IT executives with the opportunity to share experience and learn from the experience of their peers.

He is passionate about building community and fostering collaboration between stakeholders, taking a purpose driven approach to business, and exploring the role of ethical technology in business and its impact on humanity. 

Some of the highlights of our conversation include the story of an ex-meditation teacher turned CEO, applying design-thinking principles to solve problems for the not-for-profit sector, exploring the ethical implications of the explosion of AI, how AI is amplifying illusion and presenting a challenge to humanity of not knowing what is real anymore, and understanding that there is no true leadership without self-awareness.

Enjoy the conversation.
