Jayshree is a big believer in bringing your "whole self" to any task.  She is very passionate about teaching, coaching, mentoring and is a sought-after speaker, globally, on a multitude of topics such as innovation, leadership, career development and intellectual property.

In the last few years, the role confidence plays in one’s career journey has become somewhat of a focal point. But it’s evident that the very definition of confidence, and, how it is processed, projected and perceived by the two genders is different. Jayshree has been breaking boundaries, personally and professionally, all through her life. She says that with age and experience she has discovered her own virtuous cycle—action, success, confidence! Jayshree encourages audience to find their virtuous cycle that allows them to stay authentic to their own brand of confidence, and, have satisfying STEM-based careers.
