Sairam is a highly talented international IT professional, who is as comfortable in a Boardroom setting, as he is in a deep technical team. He is a true gentleman and a pleasure to work with. I have no reservation in recommending him to any organization.
Sairam used to work for me when he was Chief Operating Officer, HSBC Bangladesh. Sairam did a wonderful job and even in a short period transformed both the morale and the delivery of his teams. Sairam was well regarded by his local peers and CEO, and forged great working relationships with the Regional Delivery teams. I will always be grateful to Sairam for his work in Bangladesh and he helped me a lot to stabilise the situation we had there.
Sairam was "discovered" and fast tracked relatively early in his career with HSBC because of his obvious talents and accomplishments while I was managing the captive digital services company - HSBC.com. I then had the privilege and the pleasure of observing Sairam grow and blossom professionally from 2004 as an individual contributor and then onwards in progressively more senior management roles in the USA, in Asia and in Latin America. As a Program Manager or CISO or a country COO, I knew that I can always count on him to deliver superior results and to motivate both his peers and the teams he was leading to perform better and to continually improve. Sairam is a cross-cultural executive who effectively engages and motivates diverse teams while continually building talent and driving execution.
Sairam is also an excellent relationship manager and a great presenter to the highest levels in the corporation such as the HSBC main board and the C-suite. The most notable example of that was a series of compelling boardroom presentations to help secure funding for several Innovative financial products.
Sairam is a very capable individual who worked with me at HSBC.com. Not only was he highly skilled technically, he was a team player who was a delight to work with. I know he was well respected by his team mates for his problem solving and technical know how and he could always be counted on to get the job done. I highly recommend him.
Sairam and I worked together in Mexico, where Sairam led a key workstream seeking to identify inefficiency in our IT estate. Sai's diligent focus on detail, core knowledge of IT and highly personable manner enabled us to delve into the detail of our cost base to simplify and streamline our infrastructure, driving down our operating costs. Sairam's leadership was critical to our success.
Sairam worked for me whilst in Mexico. Sairam led a programme to identify cost inefficiencies within the IT infrastructure and to streamline working practices. These initiatives led to over USD 55m in sustainable cost savings. Sairam has a broad IT knowledge coupled with a tenacious and personable nature which enables him not only to identify key initiatives but also encourage others to be as equally focussed. Sairam knows how to get the best from everyone whilst maintaining a critical eye for detail. Sairam is excellent at managing upwards, ensuring that he was given sufficient support for me whilst at the same time I knew that he was totally in control of the programme.
