Nikhil brings a very calm and pleasant demeanour to his leadership style while excelling in leading the teams with positivity, encouragement and clear direction. He has evolved in to a global leader with highly successful stint in Sanofi headquarters in Mumbai & Paris. He displays refreshing adaptability in different cultural and country settings. He is a clear and brilliant communicator and has a very strong bias for action. He has the capabilities to lead operations by building a strong vision and aligning the teams to a common roadmap to achieve the same. I have great pleasure in endorsing Nikhil.
