Podcasts about Raksha

According to research from Forrester, organizations that align their go-to-market teams grow 19% faster and are 15% more profitable. So how can you foster effective cross-functional communication to break down silos and secure leadership buy-in for your enablement strategies? Shawnna Sumaoang: Hi, and welcome to the Win Win podcast. I’m your host, Shawnna Sumaoang. Join us as we dive into changing trends in the workplace and how to navigate them successfully. Here to discuss this topic is Sonal Patel, the director of GTM enablement at Rakuten. Thank you for joining us, Sonal. I’d love for you to tell us about yourself, your background and your role. Sonal Patel: Thank you for having me. So my name is Sonal Patel. I’m born in the fantastic city that is London, UK. Shout out to any fellow Londoners listening in. That was my base until about two years ago where I got an opportunity to relocate to US. I’m now living in a much warmer climate based out of Frisco, Dallas. So a little bit about my background. I started my career in digital marketing affiliates client side, which led me to join Rakuten Advertising, managing clients and leading the UK client services team. From there, I moved into a strategy and sales engineering role, supporting sales teams this time with deal analysis, pricing profitability, which was a great transition into sales enablement where I now support commercial teams globally. SS: We’re so excited to have you here now at Rakuten. You have held roles across the go-to-market organization from account management to client services and operations. Talk to us about your journey into your current role and how this experience influences your approach to go to market enablement. SP: Yeah, sure. How much time do we have for this one? Okay. So as I said, I started my career in client services and account management, and this gave me a deep understanding of client, needs and the challenges of building strong relationships and really driving that customer satisfaction. Managing complex accounts, leading high performing teams taught me what it takes to really deliver results. This experience, I would say shaped my approach to enablement. I focus on supporting commercial teams today with the right tools, a clear messaging, and content that really aligns with client expectations and business goals. I also, in this role, work very closely with our delivery teams to help our commercial groups really navigate that internal noise, ensuring that we’ve got alignment. So this spans across teams like product, product marketing, marketing, sales solutions, and more. SS: I love that journey. On LinkedIn, you also mentioned that you specialize in helping leaders overcome challenges to drive success. Can you share an example of a challenge that you’ve been able to help overcome for your business through enablement? SP: Yeah, a big challenge I came to understand is for our sellers really tailoring the experience to buyer needs while navigating really lengthy sales processes to stand out in the market. We really needed to streamline our messaging and make that experience more impactful. So one way I tackled this was by implementing digital showrooms, taking you back a bit. It started when a seller ran out of time during a pitch process to demo our dashboards. So we created short bite-sized demo videos showcasing our features. That prospects really cared about the most. And from there, I developed custom digital room templates that basically allows our sales teams to share our full product suite, as well as RFP documents and all of those documents that is needed within that sales process in less than five clicks. So this has been an absolute game changer. It’s helping us deliver tailored, engaging experiences, while really most importantly, simplifying that process for our sales teams. SS: Another common challenge I hear a lot about, I know a lot of enablement teams face, is gaining leadership buy-in, and this is an area where you have had a lot of success. I’d love to understand, what are some of your best practices for securing support for your programs from your executive leaders? SP: Yeah, sure. Great question. Securing leadership buy-in is tough. It’s not just about getting your foot in the door, it’s about keeping it there. It’s taken me years to figure out, if I’m honest. For me, it comes down to three things. Identifying the right stakeholders. Understanding their pain points and keeping the relationship ongoing and fluid. One aspect I’ll talk about here is early in my career, I thought I was a good listener, but I was really just waiting for my turn to talk. I’d latch onto a keyword and start crafting my response instead of actually processing what was being said. But when I started truly listening, things started changing. Leadership tells you exactly what they care about. And problem solving becomes a two-way conversation by focusing on their needs. And showcasing how my programs address their priorities. I’ve been able to build that trust and secure their support. But like I said, it’s taken years to really figure that out. It’s not a one-time effort. It’s really about maintaining that dialogue, staying adaptable and really continuing to deliver that value over time. So a lot of perseverance, I’d say it doesn’t come overnight. But yeah, I would go back to those kind of three things that I really identified to really help secure a leadership buy-in. SS: And what would you say is the impact of having strong executive support for enablement? SP: Strong executive support, I’d say is critical for enablement because it really drives that credibility, the prioritization and the adoption across the organization. It also ensures enablement is seen as that strategic function that it really is that impacts business outcomes and it’s not just a nice to have. I’m a pretty lean team here at Rakuten Advertising. So that again has taken. A good few years to really establish when leaders champion enablement, it really helps break down those silos. It aligns teams towards shared goals, secures the resources. I really need within enablement to really scale programs. And most importantly, I’d say, it fosters a culture of continuous learning, really empowering those teams to perform at their best and deliver better results for the business, ultimately, is our shared outcome. SS: Now, beyond executive leaders, how do you build and maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders at all levels of the organization, like cross-functional partners and frontline reps? SP: Yeah, great question. Another one that could probably spend a long time talking about. Building strong relationships with key stakeholders, especially reps. It’s all about the three pillars, if you like, which is consistency, collaboration, and trust. I focus on building rep relationships first, since they’re the ones using the tools and programs we create. One way I’ve done this is by launching a champions program. So partnering with our early adopters to test use cases, gather their feedback and then refine programs. So these champions also provide testimonials that have really helped me drive adoption across the various projects and deliverables that I’ve set out. It does take time and perseverance to build that trust and credibility, but it’s incredibly worth it. I also lean on my support system. What I mean by support system, this is my mentors at work, external enablement resources and events, coffee chats with other enablement professionals to really stay sharp and learn from their experiences. And I bring that into the activity that I’m running as well. So I’d say staying connected and open to feedback has really helped me build those kind of strong and lasting relationships. SS: And how have these strong stakeholder relationships helped you optimize and innovate your enablement programs? SP: Great question. The stakeholder relationships are really key for any enablement leader, in my opinion, because enablement is a partnership with sales leaders. We’re not the stick when enforcing things. We need sales leaders to really drive that accountability and frontline managers as well have to get behind the programs that we create for them to really succeed. My role, or an enablement role if you like, is to execute, really protect our sellers. And keep that chaos down by streamlining their experience. So when you have that trust and buy-in from stakeholders, from frontline managers, it’s easier to get that honest feedback to make improvements and create programs that actually work and are embraced by the team. So you’ve got that buy-in across all levels. SS: I love that. Shifting a little bit, one area where you’ve started to see a lot of traction with your reps is in the use of Digital Rooms. Can you tell us about your strategy for leveraging Digital Rooms and some of the results you’re seeing so far? SP: Yeah, so Digital Rooms have been a game changer for our reps. I spoke about this a little bit earlier. I’m going to go into a bit more detail. It all started when we couldn’t do a live demo during an RFP pitch. So working closely with sales reps and sales solutions, I created our first digital showroom tailored to our client’s needs, including 25 plus custom videos, centralizing resources, such as RFP decks, commercial proposals, and case studies. From there, I worked with sales leaders to get their buy-in. And what I mean by that is I took this one room that we created. Showcased it to sales leaders, and that led to the creating of regional and then vertical-specific rooms. After a lot of, I’d say, initial hand-holding and training, reps can now create a bespoke room in just under five clicks. We’ve scaled to over ten global templates, and these rooms are really helping reps deliver more tailored, impactful experiences, while making the process so much easier for them. A recent win for the business. That we secured in our sales or prospect actually called out the digital showroom as a standout feature versus competitors. They were speaking to it’s building that kind of trust, building those testimonials, going back to having your champions on the field. That’s really helped us kind of elevate digital showrooms and get the adoption that we have today. SS: Fantastic results. And on that note, how do you measure the impact of your enablement strategy and demonstrate that impact to your stakeholders? Are there any key wins you can share with us? SP: One way I measure the impact of enablement strategy at Rakuten is using heat maps to track activity on playbooks and initiatives. So we have a number of different plays that we push out to the business using high spot as well as digital room and pitch activity. So I share this with leaders to really show that engagement. I also work very closely in conjunction with sales leaders, as well as. Working closely with our content SMEs. So all of our subject matter experts that are producing a lot of this content to review the success of it. So the metrics that I focus on here are internal usage, as well as external engagement, especially through digital rooms by setting shared goals with all of these stakeholders quarterly. It helps my efforts stay aligned and focused on delivering business outcomes that we’ve set out. So it is a shared best practice there. SS: Last question. For enablement leaders looking to gain leadership buy- in within their organization, what is the biggest takeaway you’d leave them with? SP: I’ll share three takeaways with you that have really resonated with me. First is listen first, then act. And what I mean by that is take your time to truly understand leadership pain points and priorities. This took me years. Build trust by showing you’re solving their specific challenges and you’re not just pushing your own agenda. Second, I would say align enablement to business goals. Really clearly connect your programs to measurable outcomes that matter to leadership. So things like revenue growth, pipeline acceleration, or improved rep performance. Show them the why behind your initiatives. And then finally, the last thought I’d leave you with is around building those ongoing relationships. It’s really key. Leadership buy-in isn’t a one- time effort. Keep that relationship fluid by regularly sharing progress, results, and feedback, and really make them feel like partners in the process, not just stakeholders. SS: Thank you so much, Sonal, for joining us. I really appreciate it. SP: Thank you. Closing remarks, if I may, I would like to give a quick shout-out to some of my enablement coffee chat mentors that I talked about. The impact that a lot of the individuals I’m about to share with you have been really pivotal to my enablement journey and where I am today, my coffee trap mentors include Sheevaun Thatcher, Del Nakhi, Kate Jack, they’re all pretty big influences in the enablement space and they were fantastic to take some time out to speak to me about. They started their career in enablement and I was able to take a lot of those learnings and apply them to my day-to-day. Highspot leaders. We’ve got some fantastic mentors that I leaned in a lot and I continue to lean in. Raksha, Lisa, Laura in EMEA, and Matthew. And then finally my manager, mentor friend who gives me the space to really grow, test and learn and has been and is instrumental in contributing to my enablement success in recent years. And that’s Eric Nakano. SS: To our audience. Thank you for listening to this episode of the Win Win podcast. Be sure to tune in next time for more insights on how you can maximize enablement success with Highspot.

On this episode of the World Game-Changers podcast, Paul is joined by returning guest Raksha Daryanani to continue their conversation about how storytelling can help us overcome fear. KEY TAKEAWAYS I grew up being told I was an extrovert but, as I grew older, I realized that's not true because when I'm around a lot of people all the time I get exhausted. I like spending time with people but not for extended periods, I need time for decompressing and time alone. Introverts and extroverts can both be great public speakers, it all comes down to what energizes you and how much time you need to decompress. We don't decompress, rest, take time for ourselves enough, and that's becoming increasingly important in the digital age that we live in because more of us are working from home and you can go straight from work to going on social media on the same computer/device, or you can watch TV for hours. The brain is not getting rest. Some communities are more open, engaging, supportive when you are your true self, but others shy away from that and are more closed or reserved and expressions of vulnerability or opening up is frowned upon or met with very little reciprocation. It's something I've noticed moving around in my life. It's good to assess what a culture is like and whether you can fit in and be yourself, if not are you OK with that? It can be quite hard to mask who you are every day. The onus is on both the speaker and the listener to connect to the message. The speaker shouldn't communicate in a way that can be misinterpreted. And, preconceived notions of the listener can block us and create judgement, bias, and an unwelcoming atmosphere for someone trying to convey a message. BEST MOMENTS‘I would like to inject more fun, I often thing I'm a bit serious in my writing, I think starting off on a lighten note engages the reader in your story. It's a real art to make someone laugh with your writing'. ‘If we someone else opening up we soften. These moments where we are our true, whole selves and not putting up any façade are precious and relatable'. ‘There's no way you can guarantee that a person wrote something in a certain tone if you're just reading written text'. ‘When you hear someone tell you something remember there's another side to it if there's someone else involved. Don't make up your mind too fast'.

On this episode of the World Game-Changers podcast, Paul is joined by first-time guest a freelance creative story-teller, Raksha Daryanani, to talk about how storytelling can help us to overcome fear, specifically the growing fear of AI. KEY TAKEAWAYS At university I was told that I had a flair for writing, so I started experimenting and went from writing admissions essays to CVs to recommendation letters, basic communications that anyone would need help with. Then, when the pandemic struck, I started writing on LinkedIn, sharing stories of working in HR about miscommunication, biases, the moments I didn't feel adept at what I was doing, as well as personal stories of how I overcame challenges as a professional, as a human being, as a person of colour. It was great to see the traction of my personal stories where I'd learned something and could share it with someone else who may have a shared experience or learned something from it. Most behaviour stems from unresolved traumas, unhealed moments in our lives which we then project on to other people. But, the more we are aware, the more we grow, the more we understand why something happened – even if it was unfair, because a lot of things that happen to us are unfair – id that really an excuse to ill-treat or label others? Is it really an excuse to say “you're not one of us”? It's a delicate balance between emotional intelligence, cultural intelligence and basic common sense. If I do to you what you do to me, how am I any different? The first generation that migrates doesn't have the resources, usually, and the awareness to work on unresolved traumas because they're too busy making a living and surviving. The second generation is usually the one that has a bit more time and awareness and the safety net to come out of survival mode to think about their personal development, fulfilment and the likes. This lines up with Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Before you have the moment where you awaken or you have a change of mind, there is a phase where you feel distraught and unable to help yourself, much like a victim. I've been there and it really shaped how I saw things. I felt helpless and that the world was a really bad place, that my good intentions were never being met, so it was a me vs the world thought process. In my early 20s, the realization hit that I don't have to be a victim of my circumstances and I don't have to suffer and tell myself I'm losing out and that things happen to, not for me. Changing that narrative helped me to do things and say I tried rather than I'll fail no matter whether I try or not. BEST MOMENTS‘We all have something we can't help, what happened to us is not an excuse to not work on our traumas'. ‘We are all good on the inside, that's what's going to get you further'. ‘The worst things can happen to us because we're not aware of the boundaries we can have, the boundaries we can set, the way we can speak up, and make choices that empower us'. ‘Either you are Superman or you are the victim, but you chose that narrative in your mind'.

In this episode, Aparna shares her family's immigrant story. Her family opened the first Indian restaurant in Atlanta back in the 70s, which became a hub for South Asian communities in the South. Aparna takes us with her on the journey of what it meant to grow up being South Asian in the 70s (going to school as a young girl in the South and understanding her identity while at UGA.) Through her memories about her father's community organizing and her work today, Aparna highlights the importance of uplifting different forms of community advocacy like creating gathering spaces, preparing food, and organizing celebrations. Finally she talks about intergenerational healing in her family through the advocacy work she does today. Aparna has served as Executive Director of Raksha since 1998. She started her career as a victim advocate in the City of Atlanta and helped train and coordinate the 1996 Olympic Crisis Response team. Much of Aparna's work is focused on crime victimization and gender-based violence in immigrant communities and providing training on the needs of underserved communities. She has been faculty for Georgia's statewide Victim Assistance Academy since its inception in 2005. Over the years, she has been a part of creating organizations like Tapestri, Inc and International Women's House to meet the needs of immigrant and refugee survivors in Georgia. In 2023, She was listed in the 500 Most Influential Leaders in the 2023 Atlanta 500 list by Atlanta Magazine and serves on the board for two national organizations- The Asian Institute on Gender-Based Violence and South Asian Survivors, Allies, and Organizations Rising.

Stonehenge is Tony's favourite piece of archaeology – he's had so many adventures there over his long and varied career digging up history, so the second of two Cunningcast launch episodes is all about Stonehenge.Around 5,000 years ago, ancient people began construction on this Neolithic monument and Stonehenge has been a mystery ever since - the big questions of why did they do it and how still leave us guessing. Whoever built it left no written record and few clues for us to piece together, but clues there are. In this episode, Tony is inviting some old friends onto the podcast - fellow Time Team presenter Raksha Dave, Professor Mike Parker Pearson and archaeologist Alison Sheriden - to find out more about the world's most famous stone circle, which never stops surprising us. Hosted by Tony Robinson @Tony_Robinson Featuring:Raksha Dave @Raksha_DigsField Archaeologist, Public Archaeologist and Broadcaster, recently appointed as President of the Council for British Archaeology London. Raksha's experience spans prehistoric times to the Second World War with primetime documentaries and series on BBC, Channel 5 and Channel 4.

A year that promised so much for Indian corn producers turned out much the opposite when crops began being harvested. Fertiliser shortages, adverse weather conditions and pest damage all played a role in driving down the yield and quality of both the earlier and later harvests (Rabi and Kharif). In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Lokesh Gupta and Raksha PR to discuss the findings from the 2022 harvest analysis program in India. 

As NDTV is taken over by Gautam Adani, billionaire and ally of Indian prime minister Narendra Modi, Emily Tamkin speaks to Raksha Kumar, a journalist who covers media freedom in India. They discuss the importance of NDTV and how it came to be under Adani's control.

They also consider how the media landscape has changed since Modi came to power in 2014.

Raksha has over 15K subscribers, and uses journaling to help people slow down, reflect and pursue what really matters to them. Raksha believes that by looking after our minds and getting to know ourselves better, we can live happier and more fulfilled lives.  In this episode we explore bullet journaling and its benefits, building an audience on YouTube and how this community led to Raksha creating her own products using a 3D printer. I've never met anyone who is using a 3D printer to create their products before, so I was fascinated to learn about the process and how it works. It is much more accessible than I realised, and is something that anyone could do from home. I hope that you are as inspired as I was by this episode, whether it is to start bullet journaling or experiment with a 3D printer!

If you've been a listener of this podcast, you'll remember Raksha from some of the older episodes. The idea behind this episode is to question entrepreneurs about their existing business model.
