Amit Kumar is an excellent educator. I happen to know him through the Indian Society for Training and Development, Hyderabad Chapter. I interacted with him on several occasions. What impressed me most were: He is an extraordinarily a positive person and therefore, accomplishes the outcomes he desires. Second quality I observed was, age isn't a factor that causes prejudices him. I invited him to address the Indian senior citizens to educate them on AI. He made such an impact that many who attended fondly recall how much they learnt from this sessions and that they were able to practice what they learnt from him - they live in India and aboard. Third, his patience to repeat clarifications when seniors asked in virtual events are remarkable. Never ever ever he indicated impatience. For a true teacher, patience pays..he is truely a teacher, notwithstanding, he lectured to those who were decades older than him. Fourth, passion is the lead to inspire others: this quality of his enables him to become a mentor of those talents as well as identify such resources. Fifth and finally, Amit is a wonderful friend, a lovell dad and obviously an adorable spouse and a mentor, whom people can seek guidance from. The society will witness his involvement and support to take forward his agenda on AI besides his HRM skills. Best wishes
