With an international background in accounting and property management, it makes perfect sense that Shridhar Sheshadri landed at Yardi as a Senior Consultant in the Professional Services Group, based in Yardi’s Toronto, Canada office.
His career has spanned four continents, taking Shridhar from his home country of India to the United Kingdom, Nigeria, Australia and New Zealand, Dubai, and now to Toronto, where he and his family have lived for nearly seven years.
The opportunity to work for Yardi came along after his Canadian immigration paperwork had been approved. Shridhar told us he was struggling with the decision to leave Dubai, since he had a good job there as a controller for a large property management company. But after being referred for an interview by his brother-in-law, everything fell into place.
“It was lightning speed. I think it was providence,” Shridhar said. After spending much of his life moving and also traveling for professional reasons, he hopes that Yardi Systems will be the company he retires from.
His widely varied experiences, from his career start as an accountant in India to his oversight of factories in Nigeria and property management of one of the world’s largest residential towers in the Middle East, have given Shridhar a unique perspective that comes in handy when he visits Yardi clients. He travels to assist clients in the U.S. and Canada with their professional implementation processes.
“This position has allowed me to mix my past experiences, my background of being a Chartered Accountant, all of my professional experience – and sit across from a Board of Directors and discuss their business rules, how their entire organization works, and try to translate how Yardi programs can best help them,” Shridhar explained.
The move to North America has been advantageous for Shridhar’s children as well. Daughter Shraddha, 29, recently completed a master’s degree from William & Mary University in Virginia and is soon to earn her CPA license. Son Skandavimal, 24, completed his engineering degree at the University of Waterloo in Canada and has accepted a job with a Southern California firm.
In his free time, Shridhar and his wife, Malathy, enjoy meditation and reading.
“I’ve learned not to judge other people,” he said of the application of meditation practice to his professional life. “When you learn not to judge other people and take them for what they are, it makes you much more tolerant. Professionally, when you learn tolerance and you go out in the field, it takes you a long way.”
