Throughout my career, I have built and led people analytics functions, managed post-merger integrations, and redesigned operating models across diverse industries including Automotive, FMCG, Healthcare, Retail, Software, and Telecom. My expertise lies in workforce planning, attrition modeling, OKR design, performance management systems, and managing C-suite stakeholder relationships.

I have hands-on experience developing AI-assisted performance management platforms and centralized people analytics dashboards that integrate multiple data sources to provide accurate executive reporting. I have successfully restructured performance review cycles and built promotion and succession frameworks that optimize workforce deployment and internal talent mobility.

My skills extend to workforce planning and retention analytics, where I develop predictive models to forecast headcount needs and identify flight risks early. I design and execute leadership feedback and eNPS surveys to measure engagement and partner with leaders to implement actionable improvements. I also lead growth strategy initiatives, including market sizing, competitive benchmarking, and financial diagnostics, to unlock significant revenue potential.

In previous consulting roles, I have designed target operating models to deliver post-merger synergies, led ERP implementation PMOs, and driven operational excellence through process standardization and governance redesign.
