Bio
Steve Shah
I had the pleasure of having Abhilash on my team from 2010 through 2018 at Citrix where he served as our product leader for our India team and a key voice in setting the strategy for the product line. Abhilash was heavily sought after for presenting a major events, working with key customers, and providing guidance to our global sales team. He held deep ties with the engineering team who trusted his understanding of the product and customer. I trusted Abhilash to bring operational rigor to our release processes. On the GTM side, he was a frequent spokesperson with analysts, press, and a partner with product marketing to ensure the right message was delivered with depth and credibility. It would be a privilege to be able to work with Abhilash again, in any capacity.

I had the pleasure of working with Abhilash for almost a decade, watching him grow from product manager to a genuine authentic leader. A few things never changed, and I'm sure they helped bring him where he is today: always positive, enthusiastic, ready to help with customers, can-do attitude, charismatic, open for candid feedback, doesn't hesitate on tough calls and above all a very caring and nice person. Summarised: a pleasure to work with and a great leader.
