You wouldn’t expect someone with just a graduate degree to stress on education as the most important investment in your life but ask Surendran J and he’ll tell you that he owes all of his success to his education outside of the classroom.

Surendran J is a serial entrepreneur and is best known as the founder and CEO of Success Gyan, India’s leading learning platform for personal and professional growth. Growing up, Surendran’s dream was to study at the IIT-Madras but life had other plans for him. He ruled out IIT by opting to go for Polytechnic so he could shoulder the responsibility of his family from a very early age.

Life was hard till he accidentally experienced the magic of learning outside the conventional classroom. A powerful session with the Master Trainer, Brian Tracy was enough to make him realize that he can’t give up on his dreams because he didn’t get to apply to the best college in India. As he invested more and more in his own education, he became a firm believer in the power of lifelong learning and started his most fulfilling venture till date, Success Gyan.

As Success Gyan celebrates its 10th year anniversary, Surendran J, CEO of Success Gyan, stresses on why one should invest in education, “Real Education starts only after school. School never teaches real-life skills such as personality development, financial freedom, health and wellness. With the plethora of knowledge and courses out there, we have no excuse to not invest in self growth and development. We can sit in the comfort of our homes and get the best training from the world’s most sought after experts. ”

Suren believes that every individual should invest at least 10% of their income in education and self development after school and college. Being a lifelong learner is the only skill that will ensure that you can adapt successfully to change, a skill that most of us will agree is important after the pandemic struck the world out of the blue.

Having experienced life changing transformation through learning, Suren offers most of Success Gyan’s programmes on Personal Growth, Financial Management, Career Growth & Effective Entrepreneurship at no cost. In the last 10 years, Success Gyan has brought over 75 international trainers to India, hosted 500 live sessions and more recently hosted 1500+ online sessions as Success Gyan Academy. Success Gyan also offers a daily Learning Hour by bringing the best experts to discuss critical issues over an interactive session.

After completing a decade, Success Gyan is adding more feathers to its cap with new summits and a podcast for an additional consumer touchpoint. Suren encourages more people to Share and Inspire through their stories on social media and is inviting the top 25 entries to meet their favorite trainers including Siddharth Rajsekar, Rajiv Talreja, Puja Puneet among others at their office in Chennai.
