        i have had the pleasure of working with Aarathi over the last few years at IFRC.  Apart from being a valued colleague, she has grown to be a good friend and confidante at work often providing value insight and support for the work that i do.  I have in turn have learnt so much about the science of future and foresight strategic thinking and planning from her.  Based on her introduction and insights, this has opened a new possibility of work and thinking for me.

Aarathi is leading a very complicated process for facilitating the new strategic plan for the IFRC and i am amazed by her ability to consolidate vast amounts of data into something legible and comprehensible and to do this with a smile

        Aarathi and I worked together at the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. As a colleague, I found her to be an extraordinarily thoughtful professional whose expertise covers a range of subject areas and approaches. Aarathi brings a critical and reflective perspective to everything she does.
