One trait that Padalam Kalaivanan has when it comes to achieving goals is the desire to succeed. We must think if we have set ambitious goals or strategies right. To find the right strategies, we should keep learning and keep correcting ourselves.

Padalam believes that if we are facing obstacles, as a manager, if we get our team together, we would be able to find solutions to the obstacles. Also, obstacles are opportunities for us to work with our teams and for us to learn new skills.
