Swapnil Jain: When you call your bank, you hear that the call is being recorded for quality and training. A human would come in and listen to it manually. While listening, they are filling out a form about the call details. Then on the other side, the supervisors who are coaching the agents are doing the same thing. The operations team, which is trying to improve processes on how to best handle these calls, is doing the same thing.

Mack Sundaram: I was born in South India in a village near Chennai. I spent some time of my childhood in Chennai and Pondicherry. I later went to school in New Delhi. Since then, I moved over to the United States where I had an opportunity to pursue a doctoral degree in Economics. That’s where the transition happened.

Sramana Mitra: What was the idea that you zeroed in on? What was the process?
Swapnil Jain: It was a pretty long process that lasted two years. Towards the last two days of my job, I started formalizing some ideas. More often than not, you pivot. I started with one idea. I had eight different ideas during that period. I’d test and idea; if it’s working, keep moving forward. If not, then pull back.
