“I have known Mani for the last 8 years. I met Mani when he was introduced as the Cognizant Account rep at PepsiCo. At the time, I was responsible for overseeing the Sales and Go-to-Market IT systems for Pepsi North America Beverage, which spanned 35,000 users across US and Canada. In this role, I partnered with Cognizant (under Mani's leadership) to spearhead the Sales Transformation initiative, which drove significant top and bottom line benefits for the company. The success of this work was partially due to the solid results that Mani brought to the table. He has a blend of sales and solutioning, but more importantly he is a true partner that I can fully trust. He is ethical, fair, flexible and has a great attitude and innovative mindset. Mani can handle himself in difficult situations. He is transparent, very open to listening to suggestions / feedback and always brings fresh ideas and solutions to the table. Most importantly is that even if/when mistakes were made over the course of the program - Mani always just made things right. He didn't question or debate who was right or wrong - he simply would say 'what do we need to do to make this right'? This is a rarity in my career. I truly enjoyed my time working with Mani.”
