S. Sadasivan



With a strong background of more than 20 years in Manufacturing - first as Quality Control Inspector and in-house Technical Trainer for a large automotive component supplier and then as Head of Operations for a plastic component supplier - I had made transition into soft-skills training and human process facilitation in 2001.

Since then, I have offered workshops for students, teachers, graduate engineering trainees, front line sales & service personnel, service mechanics, customer relations executives and technicians in the service industry; junior managers and production staff in the manufacturing industry.


I have facilitated and co-facilitated workshops with students and teaching staff of educational institutions such as PSG College of Technology, Coimbatore, Kalaignar Karunanidhi Institute of Technology, Coimbatore; Jayam College of Engineering & Technology, Dharmapuri, S.A.Engineering College, Chennai; Vedavalli Vidyalaya, Walajapet; Chettinad Vidya Mandir, Karur; Vidya Peetam, Sholingur, Vidya Vanam, Coimbatore and Swami Dayanandha Higher Secondary School, Manjakudi, Tiruvarur District.

I have worked closely with more than 1500 women and men cluster coordinators of Self-Help Groups, conducting workshops all over Tamil Nadu. The objective of these workshops was to help rural women entrepreneurs develop necessary entrepreneurial skills, focusing on their motivation, attitude and behavior, to create viable micro-enterprises. This was sponsored by Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), Chennai and Hand in Hand, an NGO organization based in Kancheepuram.

I regularly co-facilitate workshops for organizations, educational institutions and social service organizations along with Dr. T.T. Srinath.
