Abstract

Moksha Data, a boutique data consulting firm specializing in public sector work, started in January 2017 with a handshake between friends and a shared commitment to the principles of egalitarianism, ownership, and collaboration. Since its inception, the Houston-based firm had built momentum despite early challenges and the obstacles posed by an ongoing pandemic. By October 2021, it has become a go-to consulting firm for non-profits and local government agencies in the Houston region. Yet, Moksha managing partner Neeraj Tandon was acutely aware that the firm faced both internal and external challenges. How it responded to those challenges would determine whether the firm would sustain its momentum and what kind of a firm it would grow into.
