This is his mantra for success. Ishwar loves Game of Thrones (Even the ending), but he has proven himself as a reliable team-player who is always on his tip-toes to help others and deliver on time.
The parameters for becoming the BCAPS Star are mentioned here, and September 2020 winner, Ishwar Madavi has shown exceptional promise and dedication to receive this accolade. We conducted a small interview to know more about his journey, but before what Ishwar had to say, let's see how he did on the BCAPS parameters according to his team-members.
Being Curious:
Ishwar was aligned to work on the SOP UI module. The project’s UI module was Angular 2. Now him being new to Angular 2 and still managing to deliver the module on time is an appreciative task
Customer Centricity:
While executing the SOP module he took care of the certain UI Gaps during mockups. Since he managed to do everything in time, we were able to incorporate a few more end moment must-have features.
Accountability:
He took full responsibility for the SOP module and guided the team member to be aware of the scenarios that might come
Perseverance:
While working on the project, he was new to Angular 2 and he used to regularly connect with team-members to discuss the components which can be used. He ensured that the resolution was solid which the team gave him. He took his time to learn the skill even if he had to put in some extra hours.
Stewardship:
He was on the UI part of the SOP module, and on the server-side there was a new learner. He could have done only his part and said he was done, instead, he guided the fresher and made sure that everything is working fine and is in the deliverable state.
