Bio
Sriram Raghavan
Mr. Krishnan has been an inspiring mentor. I have had the chance to take coaching sessions from him during the pandemic. These sessions helped me think clearly about my areas of professional and personal growth. This clarity helped me be more focused and intentional, and just in a few months, I was given additional responsibilities at work. His support was instrumental in getting me through a challenging phase in my life. If you are looking for clarity and direction in your career, do not hesitate to reach out to him.

Krish is a high energy HR person. He has the great ability to stay calm and pick the best from any situation. His passion for learning and self modulation is a great strength. During the period of our collective engagement in the early stage of Whirlpool Of India we had the challenging phase of high ambiguity with need for urgent actions across function in a continuous manner. A significant "change management" effort with high pitch communications for business delivery as imperative. Krish did very well in mixing all these priorities in a seamless manner and through his personal commitment brought significant alignment in the team across the organisation. He leads from the front and has good skill to mix a diverse group to contribute at its best. It was great to have Krish in the team and I wish him all the very best. Regards, Raman
