Satyendu Mohanty, EVP & Global Head – Talent Management, Hexaware, said, “The advantage comes from seeing talent development as a continuum, from how people enter the organization to how they build depth, move across roles, and stay relevant as the work changes.” Vinod Chandran, Chief Operating Officer, Hexaware, added, “Workforce readiness has to move at the pace of technology and client demand. These programs give us a more systematic way to build capability ahead of need and deploy it faster.” “Every year, the HCM Excellence Awards® remind us that innovation is ultimately about impact.
