About Jai Shankar
My career as an award-winning & industry-recognized executive leader has allowed me the privilege of serving organizations ranging from $5M to $80B global businesses. I have consistently exceeded expectations managing revenue goals of up to $25M, operational budgets of up to $20M, and capital expense budgets of up to $7M. As a manager, I have always focused intensely on employee engagement, as the results that drive companies forward and maximize ROI seldom come from a severed workforce. I take pride in being a mentor with a track record of attracting, recruiting, and advising teams of up to 500. Together, my teams and I have built the foundations necessary to accelerate performance and increase revenue, leading to multiple successful shareholder exit events.
