Nature Safari India.

Our Founder, Sharad Kumar Vats.

Born and brought up in New Delhi, it was Sharad’s childhood passion to play cricket for India. He was a passionate outdoor athlete who was excellent at whatever he tried. He changed his concentration to pursue hotel management in order to advance his professional career at a time when his friends were getting ready for entrance tests in engineering and medicine. Following his successful completion of the training, he was chosen by the Taj Group of Hotels (a TATA Group Enterprise), the biggest hotel chain in Asia. As he was selected as Employee of the Year at the beginning of his first year with the Taj Group, praise flooded in.

Divya Bhanu Sinh Chavda, a wildlife expert and well-known author of multiple books on Indian wildlife, was his “Super Boss” and they met shortly after. Sharad visited numerous national parks over the following few years as a result of his encounters and conversations with him.

Sharad traversed the woods of Bandhavgarh, Corbett, Dudhwa, Kanha, Bharatpur, and Sariska during his 1990–1999 journey throughout India. At the young age of 22, he encountered his first tiger in 1990, but little did he know that this encounter would transport him to a world where forests were everything. Sharad did continue to advance in the business sector, but he devoted his life to saving the Tiger and living in India’s forest.

With a fresh enthusiasm, he left the hotels to launch his own business, Nature Safari India Pvt Ltd, with the tagline “Conservation through Tourism.” Throughout his expedition, he honed and expanded his wildlife photography abilities. He documented a remarkable natural history event in 2014 when two elephants and a tiger met. He is well-known throughout the world because of his constant effort and passion for this kind of work.

He reads a lot, and some of his favorite books are “Autobiography of a Yogi,” “Bhagwat Gita,” “Jobs,” and “Built to Last.” Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Jack Welch, Mahatma Gandhi, and Paramahansa Yogananda are some of the individuals that have had a lasting impact on him.

Sharad published “The Tiger CEO,” a book that honed his interest for teaching real-world management techniques and his love of wildlife. “The tiger is a mystery that captivates us all,” he explains. Although there are a ton of coffee table books about tigers written by a wide range of specialists, I felt compelled to share my own thoughts and observations about the essential characteristics that not only make the cat an excellent leader but also an apex predator.

 

I kept looking to the tiger for inspiration during this period of time in history when we sense the need for strong leadership to guide us through the challenges we confront. I have shared with you in the book the qualities I have observed in leaders from all over the world, in a wide range of fields, and throughout history, from Chattrapati Shivaji to Elon Musk. I hope this book encourages you to use these priceless insights from the jungle king.

The Tiger CEO is accessible on a number of international sites, including Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, iBooks, Google Play Store, and NotionPress, for those of you who are not in India.
