"I worked with Ashish on a number of complex initiatives both onshore and offshore. Ashish's thorough understanding of contact center operations, technology solutions, great communication skills, and the ability to skillfully articulate complex solutions gives him the superior ability to find great solutions through difficult scenarios. Coming from the sales side of an organization, Ashish is one of the best executives I have had the pleasure of working with. I will eagerly bring him into any sales situation and know that he will deliver. He is quick on his feet, looks for win-win solutions and is always looking at optimizing the teams he works with. I learned a lot from Ashish and have tremendous respect for his abilities and the value he brings to nearly every type of scenario. I would not only recommend him, but if I knew of an executive opening in any company, I would put him forward as the person for that role.

"Ashish and I were paired through a professional mentoring program, and I benefited from his vast leadership experience. Ashish is an accomplished and capable executive who brings unique and innovative perspectives to his pursuits. However, what I want to add is that Ashish is an amazing human being. He mentors from a position of recognizing those who have helped him through his journey and with a desire to pay it forward. He brings no agenda other than to connect, understand and guide his mentees. He has the ability to listen acutely and connect professional or personal experiences to real tactics focused on improving one's self. His ability to relate to you on a human level promotes an environment of trust, openness and mutual learning. He is so accomplished yet treats you as his equal. I walk away from the experience with lessons I will be able to apply for a lifetime. Most importantly, I walk away with a new friend who has committed to being available any time I need advice or just want to connect. The experience was both exceptional and inspiring."
