About

Passion and Compassion describe me the best. Passion about my work, results and compassion for people around me (Family, Team and Business stakeholders). My last 3 year journey with Accenture has been truly amazing. As part of Practice Team(Pre Sales Enablement), we - Designed, Developed and Delivered Industry best solutions across Process Re-design, specialised technology solutions, operating model design - added many new logos across industry but more importantly focused on customer retention - developed industry first solution on Celonis and got shortlisted for patent development All these successes are attributed to the trust that my leaders have show, support of my team and more importantly my past experience of leading large F&A operation for large global clients (600-1000 FTEs across multiple delivery locations), which helped understand customer expectations better. It always feel good when you get recognised with industry best awards like - Domain Strategist (Top 25 specialist in from a pool of 60k Finance Professionals) - Winner of Best Transformation Project - Greater Than Award 2019 If you are keen to discuss any aspect of my career or projects that I handled, I am just a call away
