Meher Pudumjee finished a postgraduate degree in chemical engineering at Imperial College London and joined Thermax in August 1990 – as a trainee engineer.
Her family owned the company. She started on the floor instead.
A year later she and her husband were sent to turn around a small Thermax subsidiary in the UK. She joined the board in 1996, became vice chairperson in 2002, and took the chair in 2004 at 38.
If your children are going to take over, start them where the work is.
