Behind the Scenes of Moving to the United States for Graduate School with Trishala Pillai

“Learning is a lifelong journey.” Few people will disagree with this statement, but in the fast-changing world we live in, our learning journey won’t be linear. In the interview with Trishala Pillai, an enterprise software account executive turned education technology enthusiast and advocate, we hear her own non-linear journey getting to and working as the director of strategy at Rumie, an educational nonprofit working with the world’s most influential organizations to create and distribute micro-learning materials to meet the needs of the economically-displaced, smartphone-first modern learner.Similar to the frugality concept that what the tech world is fascinated with, Trishala turns the clock back to ancient India and introduces us to the concept of “Jugaad”, referring to non-conventional, frugal innovation emphasizing on “doing more with less”. Towards the end of the interview, Trishala also shares with us her thoughts on the rise of “social learning” and what skills required in a world humans are going to be intertwined with machines.

S3E2 Unstoppable Millennials - Learn More, Effortlessly with Trishala Pillai from Rumie 

Trishala Pillai is fascinated by humans, machines and the impact human-AI collaboration will have on society and work. She is fuelled by work where she can be curios, contribute to revenue and growth, while creating shared prosperity. Trishala is the Partnerships Manager of AI + Voice Channel Partners at Myplanet, where she is working with big and emerging tech companies to help the world's most influential organizations take complex business problems and understand where AI can be useful. Her career in tech has made her realize that technology is advancing faster than human wisdom and to advance our collective knowledge on the challenges of our lifetime, we need to stay closely tied to our communities. Trishala founded a change project called The Dialogue Xchange which enables her to influence change within our community. This is a change project, that is backed by 2 leading incubators in Ontario and endorsed by the Ontario Government. You are double down on what makes us uniquely human and use dialogue as a hard tool to enable society to deal with the vast amount of change in the world. You are researching the ultimate human interest activity we take for granted and have historically struggled with...dialogue. Trishala's Why My why is to leave the world better than it was when I got here through my direct contribution – through something that I built or was a part of. I’m really passionate about systemic change and I really want to be a part of molding and shaping our systems that have not traditionally served as many people as it could. This is what motivates me every day.

Daring to Be Great & Living in Alignment with Trishala Pillai

"Sometimes we forget to look sideways, and that's really important because some of the biggest opportunities are sometimes not forward. It's in front of us or around us." Episode #44 of Season 2 of The Social Impactors Podcast features #SocialImpactor Trishala Pillai, Partnerships Manager of AI + Voice Channel Partners at Myplanet, where she is working with big and emerging tech companies to help the world's most influential organizations take complex business problems and understand where AI can be useful. Trishala is also the Partnerships Chair for the B Local Committee for East-Central Canada where she looks at bridging the gap between the B Corp community and key stakeholders across all sectors outside of the community to expand our reach and amplify our impact.  Trishala and I talk about the importance of building local communities, why social enterprises will lead the future of work and build better companies for tomorrow, and how her career in tech has made her realize that technology is advancing faster than human wisdom, and that the only way to address the challenges of our lifetime, is to stay closely tied to our communities and to never forget to look sideways.
