Most professionals who come to me are not in crisis. They are performing well, being paid reasonably — and the career they actually want still feels just out of reach. That gap is exactly what I work on. I am Pia Shome. 22 years in HR. 4 years as Head HR and CHRO across Barclays, DBS Bank, RBL Bank and U GRO Capital. I led the people and cultural integration of the merger that created IDFC First Bank. INSEAD alumna. Best 40 Under 40 HR Leader in India. Founder of Wave HR & Advisory. I have sat on the hiring side of every conversation you are about to have. I know what gets people hired, promoted, and paid what they deserve — and what quietly holds them back. I work with two groups of people: Ambitious professionals — who want to make a smart career move, negotiate a number they actually deserve, or finally understand why the career they have built is not quite the one they wanted. Founders and people leaders — who are scaling teams and need a senior HR thought partner, not a consultant who delivers a deck and disappears. What I bring to every session: the unfiltered perspective of someone who has done this at the highest level — not theory, not frameworks, not generic advice. Just honest, senior-level clarity on your specific situation. 5.0 rating · INSEAD alum · Wave HR & Advisory The session that changes things is one click away.
