The setting was at Hyatt Regency New Delhi, and the date was September 14, 2023, a day that would soon be etched in my memory. It was the day I attended the "Veeam on Tour" event, an event that would introduce me to someone truly exceptional and inspire me.
This event was not just about inspiration but also a crucial step toward contributing to the ambitious goal of the 7 trillion-dollar economy.
At the heart of the event was the influential speaker and women's empowerment advocate, Chaitra Vedullapalli. In front of an eager and diverse audience, Chaitra delivered a captivating speech that I resonated deeply with the WTi Cabs' core value of caring for its employees.
Chaitra's message went far beyond just empowerment; it was a roadmap for women to excel both personally and professionally. She passionately spoke about the vital elements needed for women to thrive, and it was clear that her vision aligned with the journey towards the 7 trillion-dollar economy.
Chaitra's speech was a rallying cry for women to have their voices heard. She believed that without a platform to express their thoughts, ideas, and aspirations, women's potential would remain untapped, holding back the economy from reaching its fullest potential.
But Chaitra's message didn't stop at voice; it extended to support. She emphasized the importance of having allies within the family and society, individuals who would nurture and encourage women to pursue their dreams. This kind of support system, she argued, was not just a personal triumph but a collective step toward the greater economic goal.
Furthermore, Chaitra stressed the significance of authenticity. She urged women to represent themselves genuinely, ensuring that their voices were not only heard but respected. This authenticity, she believed, was a cornerstone of success, both personally and as part of the broader economy.

As Chaitra continued her inspiring speech, she threw down a challenge to the audience - a challenge to become icons in the 7 trillion-dollar economy. She presented a comprehensive framework for this journey: I.C.O.N.
"I" was all about identifying oneself. Chaitra encouraged audience to understand their unique qualities and strengths, recognizing what set them apart in the vast landscape of opportunities.
"C" represented caring for others, prioritizing relationships, and making a positive impact on people's lives. She emphasized that success should not be just monetary; it should also be about the positive influence one has on society.
"O" symbolized outcomes - setting meaningful goals that served both personal ambitions and contributed to the greater economic growth.
And finally, "N" stood for zero negligence when it came to core values. Chaitra insisted on staying true to one's values, regardless of the challenges faced.
Chaitra Vedullapalli's commitment to empowering women, her advocacy for authenticity, and her dedication to core values were all steps forward in the path to a 7 trillion-dollar economy.
As I left the event that day, I couldn't help but feel inspired, knowing that her message would not only empower women but also contribute to the broader economic growth, aligning perfectly with the ambitions of WTi cabs and the nation as a whole.
Happy Reading ICONic Journey
