Madhu Rao’s Summary

A vagabond with about 14+ years of successes and mistakes in software services/ products, business consulting, and worldwide sales/ marketing and strategy.

Ran the full circle with stints in entrepreneurship, large and mid-sized corporations. Have grown businesses consistently by leveraging multi -geography/culture/skill based teams into the organization's business vision. Have had significant management, consulting and operational experience in EMEA and APAC geographies with relationships across strategic partners, influencers and client spectrum. Have managed multiple functional roles ranging from Business & Strategy consulting/ Marketing to Sales and Overall P&L for the EMEA and APAC Sales regions.

Professionally, the 'want' to tango with super achievers is greater than 'where is my corner office?' syndrome. Personally, a cautious yet cocky Virgo who would probably set up a 'pay as you go' parachute mall opposite to Heathrow, Terminal 4. (Sir Richard - We could discuss further)

Outsourcing, Offshore/ Nearshore frameworks. P&L expertise. Strategic sales, and business consulting. EMEA and APAC business and operational leadership. EMEA & APAC sales and marketing.
