ABOUT ANAND BALAKRISHNAN

I am a Finance, Technology, and Transformation leader with nearly three decades of experience advising and operating across Retail, Consumer Goods, Airlines, and Manufacturing. A Chartered Accountant (CPA equivalent), I bring deep CFO advisory expertise across finance operations, ERP modernization (SAP & Oracle), compliance, analytics, and performance improvement.In senior leadership roles within global IT services organizations, I have combined P&L responsibility with hands-on advisory work—scaling multi-million-dollar portfolios, shaping industry go-to-market strategies, and delivering measurable outcomes for Fortune 500 clients. My experience includes advising CFOs and CIOs on finance-led operating model redesign, ERP strategy, and analytics-driven decision-making.I have led complex global programs with teams of 500–800+, partnered closely with executive leadership, Boards, and industry analysts, and helped organizations unlock EBITDA improvement through disciplined finance transformation and data governance.Today, through ABK Advisory Services, I advise enterprises and technology companies on finance and technology transformation, operating model design, and architecture-led modernization. I have also advised AI and technology startups on product-market fit, pricing, and go-to-market strategy—bringing an enterprise lens to early-stage innovation.In parallel, I am incubating an AI-enabled software concept focused on simplifying complex, rules-driven workflows in regulated environments. I value collaborative engagements with leadership teams that are focused on clarity, execution, and sustainable value creation.
