Bio
Moji Akingbade
My connection with Ninesh goes back to when he joined Avery Dennsion in 1998 as a junior IT executive up to the point of him becoming a senior regional manager and my business partner when I took on the role of GM in 2005. Hence I am in the prime and honourable position to give feedback on Ninesh in terms of his skills and his contribution to the organisation where we worked together. The early days: Ninesh was not one to overwhelm with IT complexities and mysteries! I remember him being helpful, resourceful and very good at breaking things down to aptly meet the requirements of his target audience. His strong work ethic alongside his positive and upbeat personality clearly shone through from the start. With his ability to put people at ease especially if one was occasionally lost in the IT jargon, Ninesh fitted into the Avery business culture very easily. These traits stood him in good stead within the international business domain enabling Ninesh to expand his exposure within the Avery Dennison global network. It was not long before that he became known as the 'go to' IT person in Avery Dennison Sri Lanka - and subsequently within South Asia. Head of IT: By the time I became the GM of Avery Dennison Sri Lanka, Ninesh was managing the Sri Lanka IT team very effectively I must add, and supporting projects for South Asia. His position in my team locally and the respect that the global teams had for Ninesh made my job so much easier. He was a key contributor to a very strong team of department heads that I had the pleasure of managing for ten years. Regional IT head: The ideal business partner - reliable and trustworthy. At this stage of his career, Ninesh was my support and advisor on all things IT. For example with customer project launches, I relied on my team of experts in their relevant disciplines to alert opportunities and avert possible disasters which Ninesh much to my delight always accomplished. In summary, Ninesh’s expertise is IT - equally he is a smart business person and savvy at collaborating across all levels and cultures. Such traits no doubt brought him to where he is today and will certainly take him further forward as he progresses with his career. It would be a pleasure to work with him again.

I first came to know Ninesh in 2007. We since had the opportunity to work as colleagues. With his comprehensive knowledge and experience in the IT field, he is the go-to person for projects from implementing an ERP system, customization, automation and identifying hardware requirements. His holistic approach of understanding the business requirements & generating the required IT platforms and solutions to optimize performance and enhance productivity is a great contributory factor to business success. Ninesh is a strategic business leader with a passion towards achieving excellence.
