Bio
Jeff Christensen
Hari is a tremendous product and design leader. He faces challenges with humility and determination, and reinforces positive core values through his decision making and actions. He is equally skilled at navigating large organizational structures as he is at creation of teams and processes. He exemplifies teamwork, and optimizes globally for the betterment of the portfolio and company. He thinks and acts strategically, tactically, and empathetically. He earns and commands respect from his subordinates, peers, superiors, and cross-functional collaborators. He is strong in process, but also flexible. He is the quintessential bar-raiser. I would jump at the opportunity to work with him again. My absolute highest recommendation.
Ravi Adapathya
Hari delivers a rare and valuable blend of technical design expertise, business acumen, and empathic leadership. I was fortunate to have him as my colleague while at Honeywell Safety & Productivity Solutions where he led the North American component of our global design practice. Always demonstrating a professional and calm demeanor, Hari consistently delivered quality and timely results for a broad variety of products by managing the deliverables of specialists drawn from multiple studios. He coached teams on how best to apply sophisticated design and research methods based upon his comprehensive graduate training in human factors, effectively distilled broad business objectives into actionable steps to guide product teams in their day-to-day tasks and showed genuine care and advocacy for the personal wellbeing and career development of his teammates. Hari is adept at creating data-backed strategies and roadmaps that balance the needs of the user, engineering capabilities, and business requirements. I always had confidence in the effectiveness of the constructively assertive and focused style with which he represented those outputs to customers and business stakeholders from the C-Suite to the front line. Finally, Hari does all this while being a humble, authentic, and genuinely decent person with whom it is a pleasure to collaborate. I hope our professional paths cross again in the future.
