Rajeev Agarwal, author of "What I Did Not Learn at IIT", realized early on that success in life and career largely depended on the right habits, behaviors and mindset, not on a college degree and technical knowledge. He is a living proof of his teachings in the book – he is, after all, the founder and current CEO of MAQ Software, a privately-held software services company that offers digital marketing, analysis and technology systems and solutions. His company is also an Amazon Consulting Partner and a Microsoft Preferred Vendor and Silver Certified Business Intelligence Partner.
He has a B. Tech. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur as well as several master’s degrees in engineering and management from the Iowa State University and the University of Michigan Business School, respectively. He worked with Frigidaire and Microsoft Corporation in various capacities including product management before establishing his own company. He has also been recognized in the industry with various awards including as finalist for the 2010 Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year.
