It is my pleasure to recommend Saptarsi Goswami for his achievements and work done during his tenure at Cognizant Technology Solutions. Saptarsi is critical and out-of-box thinker. He analyzes the challenges, understands its strength and weaknesses and then leverages the resources and situation best to achieve program goals. False bravado is not his core skill and he is grounded to reality while making commitments. Saptarsi is an excellent team-builder. He is highly respected by his colleagues and subordinates and skillfully managed the plethora of personalities involved the projects that we worked together. His enthusiastic, optimistic demeanor is contagious and serves to motivate and energize his team. He is a natural leader who has the gift of identifying each staff member’s primary talents and bringing out the best in each one throughout the course of the entire project. He is very calm and collected under pressure. His communication style is mostly succinct and to the point, however while managing difficult political situations he displays the fineness of an erudite lawyer who balances and treads the situation such that it brings out an amicable solution agreeable to all parties – which I believe is very difficult skill and not easily mastered. Though, Saptarsi has moved on to a different trajectory in his career, I continue to follow his rise. The qualities that he displayed early in his career continue to manifest with finer nuances. Today because of his initiative he has successfully brought together the largest forum of Data Scientists in Eastern India, who are working on applying AI to programs for social causes and spread of knowledge. His in-depth understanding of technology combined with fine management skills makes him an excellent choice to make him leader for any program. I personally have great faith & trust upon Saptarsi and am happy to recommend him. Please get in touch with me if you need any further information.

Saptarsi has all the ingredients that you wish for in a manager and a leader. It was a joy to have him in the leadership team. He is attentive, mature, technically sound and has the right customer and people skill to navigate through various project/engagement challenges and put the team on the winning side. I have never seen him back out from a challenge, rather seen his willingness to pick up difficult subjects and see them through. I am sure he will be successful in whatever he chooses to pursue in his professional career and I wish him all the very best!!
