Gaurav Bhalla

Gaurav Bhalla has led a diverse and varied life as a global business executive, consultant, entrepreneur, educator, author, and speaker. Growing up his goal was to be a scholar-athlete--like Roger Bannister--so he pursued both academics and athletics vigorously. The former won out, though he still catches himself wishing he had participated in at least one Olympics.

His passion is the human condition. How people resolve their feelings of love, hate, envy, jealousy, and anger; how they permit or prevent their feelings from finding their way to words and actions; how they decide which words, which actions to call on stage is what moves him, and compels him to write. He finds the human condition a fertile ground for stories, because it is what makes life and people interesting and attractive, and, at the same time, frustrating and repulsive.
