I've had the pleasure of working with Joel over the last nine months. We've collaborated on numerous HR projects and he has been efficient and consistent with delivering results. He's also done a great job of advocating for employees when it comes to global HR decisions. The way that he approaches solving problems always starts and ends with an employee-first approach. He always has the best interest of employees in mind. He possesses a vast knowledge of HR core functions such as performance management, employee engagement, recruiting, and employee experience. Whenever I've given him feedback, he's always been very receptive, which shows me that he is always looking to learn and improve. Esper is very lucky to have Joel leading the HR team and HR function in India.

Joel was the HR Business Partner for the Business Unit that I was working for at Unisys. Back then I led the training and coaching function for the BU and Joel was very helpful with responding to HR queries and challenges from the team. He was friendly but not a friend and maintained a professional decorum. Instead of rattling HR policies he helped the team understand the reason behind the actions thus treating the team as partners. Joel has a way with people and works with the people in the true sense. Thank you Joel for all the support you provided while we worked together.
