I have always known the importance of appearance, behaviour and communication, all thanks to my father. He was my image consultant without ever knowing it. He taught me how important first impressions are and how it can help us in realising our goals and be successful.

Later on when I came across the concept of Image Consulting, I immediately realised that it was a profession that was custom made for me. It gave me a chance to help people work on something that is the need of the hour- soft skills.

As professionals in our respective fields, we tend to overlook that soft skills are a prerequisite for a job / profession. Even in educational institutions, hard skills are given more attention and importance than soft skills.

Most of my guiding principles have remained the same: I believe every individual has talent, beauty, intelligence, and great potential — even if they can’t immediately recognise these traits in themselves.

As an image consultant, it is my job to make sure I tell my clients nothing but the truth, something that family and friends often refrain from doing, in fear of hurting their feelings.

As accomplished professionals as we may be, nobody is ever all knowledgeable. I believe nobody ever stops learning, and that one can learn from anybody and anywhere. I live in the state of permanent beta- learning, improving and evolving.

I gather a lot of information from my clients and when possible, I make a point to observe them in their  work and social situations. I do a detailed analysis of what their image related  problems, issues, and limiters are.

I create an action plan with specific goals to close the gap between my client’s current day image and what ‘we’ feel their ideal image for success should look like.

When a client signs on with Lumiiére Image Consultancy, I make sure they understand the commitment they are making towards self-improvement and achieving their goals.
