Welcoming Ganesh Kalyanaraman to Version 1
We are very excited to announce that Ganesh Kalyanaraman has joined Version 1 as Managing Director for our Global Capability Centre (GCC) and our North American operations. He brings with him a wealth of experience and a passion for innovation and empowerment, along with a stellar reputation for exceptional leadership and strategic vision from previous roles in the industry – most recently as Senior Vice President at Cognizant. His expertise in technology and service delivery, commercial and business development, as well as talent management, will be invaluable to Version 1 as we continue on global growth trajectory.
Ganesh’s visionary approach is perfectly aligned to a shared commitment, one that underscores the importance of making a positive impact on people. His own values resonate deeply with ours and complement our Strength in Balance model – which is our focus on balancing three key pillars of customer success, empowering people and a strong organisation.
He comments,
“People want to work for an organisation that has purpose, one that embraces a real work-life balance from the start and encourages them to be lifelong learners.”
As a strong advocate for lifelong learning for all employees, particularly in our sector of technology and business transformation, he encourages “everyone to see the bigger picture in their work and understand the impact that technology has on individuals as people – it goes beyond simply resolving an IT ticket. That ticket might mean a process or service continues to function avoiding a major impact on the human life at the centre.”
His role at Version 1 will be critical in supporting the strategic goals of the organisation and facilitating growth opportunities while establishing and nurturing long-term relationships with our customers and other stakeholders.
Version 1 currently employs 450 people in India and under Ganesh’s guidance this is set to accelerate at pace. This will ensure that our global customers get the right support and we stay true to our principle of cultivating a workforce that is skilled, diverse and committed to excellence.
We warmly welcome Ganesh to Version 1 and look forward to the positive impact he will make as we continue to grow, innovate and deliver business transformation for our global customers.
