“Salil and I have worked on over a dozen of the most strategic, high value and platform based deals generating over $5B in total contract value in the last several years. We have known each other for about 8 years and I have reported to Salil as part of Cognizant’s global BPaaS (Business Process as a Service) sales capability. He is an outstanding leader and has created a collaborative and productive environment. Salil is a strategic thinker and is excellent at working with C-level executives. He has an ability envision a business solution and understand the implications on required capabilities and capital investments. Salil has created some very lasting relationships inside and outside of Cognizant and has created a strong team environment where everyone sees and feels their contribution. I would highly recommend Salil for his understanding of people, his grasp of business concepts, emerging markets as well as his strong ability to lead. ”
