Nobody teaches you how to be a CEO," says Paroma Chatterjee, CEO of Revolut.

Paroma, an admirer of Robert Frost’s classic "The Road Less Travelled," has spent the last two decades of her career navigating various sectors in a rapidly changing world, with a primary focus on banking and finance. Her leadership style has been shaped not only by her experiences with leading companies like ICICI, Airtel, and Flipkart, but also by the core values instilled in her since childhood.

In conversation with Z47’s Rupali Sharma, Paroma shares her journey of bringing Revolut, a global company, to India, managing all aspects from regulations and licenses to talent. In this episode, she discusses:

👩🏻‍💻Factors that made her an ideal candidate to be the CEO of Revolut
🔍 Revolut’s 4-stage hiring process
📌How to constantly evolve hiring standards
🎓The Revolut Ira Scholarship and other employee benefits
🧑‍💼How CEOs are different from founders

Paroma believes that "You’re not just in business to do business; you’re also in business to do some good along the way." If you’re a founder or leader with similar values, this episode will provide essential insights into effective leadership strategies.
