About Manoj Rajawat

I believe the real power of Data & AI lies not in technology itself, but in how it transforms the way people and businesses make decisions. Over the past 20+ years, I’ve partnered with global enterprises to modernize their BI and AI ecosystems — shaping GenAI-ready data foundations, building intelligent BI practices, and creating delivery models that scale.My role blends BI practice leadership with advancing AI for BI. I am actively driving our latest point of view, building accelerators and tools, and scaling delivery capabilities so organizations can realize faster, more meaningful impact from their data investments.I am also an executive coach, focusing on mid-level leaders who are navigating the leap into senior leadership, and I mentor underprivileged students on a pro bono basis — because preparing for the future means investing in both technology and people.I’m deeply curious about the next frontier of AI-powered BI — blending human judgment with intelligent systems to create enterprises that are not just data-driven, but insight-led.
