If you have a burning desire to achieve, power comes automatically and few men could exemplify the power, the success and the strength of character like Deepak Sharma, Managing Director, Powerware India. Heading one of the most promising and fast growing companies in India, Sharma has added a new dimension to its growth and expansion by imparting a technological edge to the company over his rivals. A 100 per cent subsidiary of US based Powerware Corporation; Sharma has helped the firm incorporate a wide range of products, which include a variety of UPS from power ratings (500 VA to 5000 KVA) for SOHO and Corporate Sector and DC Power System Solutions for the Telecom sector with remote monitoring.

Sharma whose mantra for success is maintaining a technological lead over his rival and giving his clients the most efficient power solutions has carved a niche for himself. He has, over the years, taken up fresh challenges and has drawn market strategies to fulfill his ambitious projects. Sharma is masters in management studies and is an alumni of BITS, Pilani. He has 24 years of working experience in the IT and office automation industry. Having extensive exposure in sales, advertising, product management, technical service, marketing, customer support and finance, the Powerware India top job is right up his street.

Under Sharma, Powerware India became the first power solutions company in India in 2002 to have launched an online, round-the-clock customer relationship management (CRM) initiative. The company, under him, chalked out offering its customers international levels of service as its topmost priority. And it has stood the test of its customers' satisfaction. The new initiative has enabled customers obtain an assured, reliable and effective after-sales support. To say the least, it was just one of the milestones, but very crucial leap, which Powerware India achieved under Sharma's able eyes.

To make the Powerware India cost-effective in its operation, Sharma was the main force that began outsourcing most of its activities like manufacturing, distribution, service and marketing services to third parties. This helped the company in keeping all its checks and balances in the right place. It goes to Sharma's skillful management of the company that it has been operating without making any loss. It is certain that Sharma is not going to rest where he is today but has plans afoot to launch his products in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal. But there is more to Sharma than his prudent approach to financial and production management skills and his uncanny understanding of the market. The fundamental drive behind his successes is his sharp intellect and his ability to take action with a lightening speed. It goes without saying that he has added new matrix to achieve greater 'power' in the Indian market.
