  • Led Redington's IT distribution across Tier II and Tier III cities in India — a nationwide mandate spanning 40 branches from Jammu to Kanyakumari. Championed the India 2 initiative at a time when non-metro markets were largely underestimated, bringing sustained focus and investment to regions that had previously operated at the periphery of the organization's attention. Over five years, transformed the company's outlook toward India's heartland, grew the revenue share of non-metro locations meaningfully, generated new enterprise business, and — critically — built the next generation of sales leadership from within.
