With the distinction of thus far working in global markets across three major continents, namely Asia, Europe and the Americas, Mr. Shetty would like to contribute to the industry by developing global talents who would like to contribute to this automotive industry. Leveraging a diverse array of experiences in new business development, business turn-around, project execution, new product development and purchasing areas, as well as handling strategic areas such as long term planning, team building and customer relationship management, Mr. Shetty previously built a prolific career throughout the world in a variety of roles. He served as a Global Brand Manager at MANN+HUMMEL in Germany handling the company's Ford account and its joint ventures, during which time he oversaw business endeavors in Europe, the Americas, China, Thailand and India.

Among his responsibilities in this position, he handled business development, new customer acquisition and business proposals from a number of global companies, including General Motors, Motorola, Chrysler and Tata Motors, to name only a few.

Mr. Shetty's performance in the field was born of his academic journey, during which time he studied at the Sri Jayachamarajendra College of Engineering in Mysore, India, from which he earned a Bachelor of Engineering in 2005.

Among his most cherished accomplishments, Mr. Shetty is particularly gratified to have traveled throughout the world and brought various multicultural teams of professionals together for a singular cause. In accounting for his success in this regard, he largely credits the joy of addressing new challenges and also more importantly learning something new every day making him better as a professional and person, as well as his passion for cultivating the talents of others. Looking towards the future, Mr. Shetty hopes to see MANN+HUMMEL continue to as a global leader in its industry, with the mantra "separating the useful from the harmful" and building the networks it needs to contribute to a "cleaner world" in the years to come.
