Bio
Tim Sherwood
I worked with Olivier at Tata Communications when he served in two primary roles: 1) a Chief-of-Staff to the CEO and 2) as a business development lead for our new mobile virtual network business unit. In the former role, Olivier worked close with the product, sales and engineering times to coordinate the annual and long-term corporate planning process - ensuring the various functional teams not only aligned on the high-level financial metrics, but, more importantly, developed more detailed plans and objectives to achieve our financial targets. In the latter role as a member of my mobile business development team, Olivier helped to institute a more formal customer acquisition and funnel management process helping to drive more stability and predictability into our deployment and revenue ramp for the new business unit.
Gaurav Anand
Oliver is one of the most resourceful and driven individuals I have ever met. He is always on a mission. He will question, he will do the research, and he will execute. Olivier has a very thorough understanding of the enterprise space and can zoom in and out of various aspects - from sales and GTM strategy, to operations and customer experience management, and from building and managing relationships, to individual account and opportunity level planning. With an incredible work ethic, and an uncanny ability to make teams work together to produce results, Olivier is an asset to any team he’s on.
