Professional Summary
With 4 Years as Service Line Head, 4 Years as Global Strategy Head, 6 Years as CMO. Overall 20 years in management at TCS between 1997-2024 I have alternated between Seeding & leading a service line, Strategy, Change Management & Governance & overall unit strategy and operations. I also led industry offering incubation and sponsored product development for 15 apps on a third-party platform. Apart from this I was CMO for a Business Unit, leading the Incubation & Acceleration function.
I thus see myself as a thought leader who continuously challenges and improves the status quo; a storyteller who envisions solutions and aligns the team; sometimes a change catalyst driving organization reimagination and, always a leader & manager enabling disciplined execution.
