ABOUT AMIT SAKSENA

For over a decade, I’ve led Sales Operations helping global teams make better decisions through structure, rhythm, and clarity — from India to the UK.I’ve worked across industries and stages, including eBay, McD, Expedia, and Amazon, before moving to Google.Today, I lead regional landing within Global Forecast Operations at Google, driving the monthly sales forecast rhythm across 5 regions and all google cloud products, aligning sales professionals, and integrating AI-driven tools that make decision-making faster and more consistent worldwide.But beyond workflows and strategy, I’m driven by something deeper. It’s authenticity.As I’ve seen firsthand that great systems aren’t built only on numbers or dashboards.They’re built on empathy and the willingness to stay human, even when the world around us becomes more automated.As AI continues to reshape how we live and work, I’m driven by one question:How do we preserve what makes us human while building what makes us better?My goal is simple: to inspire systems where work, leadership, and technology grow together, with people at the centre.Always open to connecting with thoughtful leaders, innovators, and changemakers who believe technology should serve humanity, not replace it.
