THE PANDEMIC GAVE BIRTH TO EMBARKINGONVOYAGE
As Abhishek quotes, “It was the pandemic (during the first lockdown) which made me realize how much it has affected the whole world. It gave a sharp reminder of our fragility giving true sense to the meaning that Money is nothing but a way to earn living.”
Further, he recalls, “In October 2020, my entire family was Covid affected. During this testing time, I was retrospecting myself, my learnings, achievements, ups, and downs during my 12+ years of employment. Finally, I summarized my side of professional experiences and expectations to myself. Priya and I had a long discussion on the same and, we decided to pursue our experience and knowledge for a broader purpose. A purpose which not only takes us to level up as an individual but also, lets us contribute towards economic growth and prosperity.
In December 2020, we penned down entrepreneurship, identified a few additional core stakeholders, noted down goals, purpose, mission, vision, and how we wanted to pursue (delivery model). I never believed or targeted high-level plans because such plans never conclude meaningful contributions, instead, we did ground-level work. We started working with clients, initially, we failed at a few but that became our solid foundation and learning ground, which eventually become our strength.”
Abhishek says- During my groundwork, as a CEO, I concluded five basic things- Clear Communications, Collaborations, Partnerships, Employee Well-being, and Creating Career Roadmap for our colleagues who would eventually lead the delivery organization and ensure customer success. What else? Since then, we formally started with one client who referred us to many and we are growing through word of mouth and great client satisfaction.
This is how the idea of EmbarkingOnVoyage (EOV) was implemented!
INSPIRATION
The confident entrepreneur asserts, “Well, I believe that there are always new things to learn from each being and every one is unique. Many individuals in my life have inspired me during various phases of my career (Even the ones who weren’t kind to me). However, I am truly inspired by Mr. Ratan Tata who is a great visionary, risk-taker, philanthropist, and a true leader. Taking his thought leadership throughout my entrepreneurial journey, I aim to contribute towards Economic growth, Social upliftment, and a Greener environment.”
Abhishek voices his opinion by saying people make conscious efforts while entering entrepreneurship but for him, it was a radical decision. All elements fell into place and there was sheer willpower and confidence to do something better and the focus is completely on customer success through people empowerment.
VISION
The proud entrepreneur states, “I never say ‘MY’ vision or prospect. It’s ‘OUR’ company- What we are today, is because of our people and their trust in us. Our vision is to be recognized as genuine and valued digital engineering partners. We encourage each of our crew members (EOV employees are our crew members) to pursue their passion fearlessly. Passion has no boundaries and therefore, we nurture the Millenials and channelize their passions towards an exceptional career trajectory accompanied by innovation, excellence, and immense growth.”
HANDLING COVID-19
Abhishek elucidates, “EOV’s inception was itself during the pandemic, hence the new norms of the pandemic is a part of the basic skeleton of our processes. The pandemic has removed the geographic boundaries thus partnering talent with the right opportunity was smooth and has helped us grow in a positive trajectory. Any startup always sails through the challenge between project win and resource onboarding. As a Founder and Executive Leadership member, I am fortunate to have people who came forward and collaborated with the confidence that we can make a positive impact on our clients and took over the complete delivery.
In fact, our team members support us by expressing their intent to deliver work even without pay. Yes, ‘Without pay’, it’s certainly a big thing to hear and this shows how the people who surrounded us trusted our vision for EOV and leadership traits. We are delighted that since we started functioning, we have been maintaining a positive. cash flow, just by ensuring agile and on-time delivery following high-quality code and software development processes. EOV is 100% self-funded and bootstrapped.”
DIFFERENTIATING FACTORS
According to the 2020-started company, EmbarkingOnVoyage is customer-focused, agile, and innovative; carrying three decades of combined leadership experience of engineering delivery with a ready-to-use accelerator for reduced GTM. As far as EOV is concerned, we believe in delivering the right experience, with the right expertise at a rational price point. The primary focus is on quality, experience, and customer success, and hence most of the business leads are through customer references.
THE WORK CULTURE
Abhishek mentions, “What binds us as a team is our value system. Our value system is the pillar of our organization’s culture and we all abide by the same. It’s the experience that we as leaders can pass on to the team that counts which is reflected by the amazing 80% of our team headcount growth through employee references. EOV is confident to onboard close to 1000 team members just through the employee referral system. We aim to keep our employee referral on-boarding about 80%. We trust our people, they have always fulfilled their responsibilities and go the extra mile in delivering value to the customers and the team. We believe in empowering our team rather than micro-managing.”
ACHIEVEMENTS
The luminary has been successful in terms of employee strength since they have grown from 1 to 30 in less than 6 months. Also, within the first six-month of the launch, EOV has won a few Long Term Agreement (LTA) with Fortune 100 companies.
FUTURE PROSPECTS
The visionary acclaims, “As a part of our plans, we are confident to spread our arms in the enterprises and ISVs. Very soon, we will be onboarding a few leaders across Sales & Delivery to grow ourselves in certain geographies.”
CHALLENGE YOUR GOALS AND START FEARLESSLY
Abhishek conveys, “There is nothing called ‘Right Opportunity’. It’s you who has to grab the opportunity and make it right. Do not worry about the failures since those are a part of the learning process. Challenge your goals without worrying about your finances. Just start fearlessly because you do not have anything to lose but everything to gain. Work for yourself but have a bigger purpose where you can create a path for others towards a better life and together making the world a better place to live in.”
