About Naveen Pandrangi
I serve as Chief Transformation and Information Officer at Williams, where I am responsible for aligning enterprise technology strategy execution with financial performance for an energy infrastructure company that connects American energy to families and businesses nationwide. My leadership philosophy is simple: technology investments must meet the same capital discipline as any other asset. Every initiative is evaluated against a defined return threshold; no pilots without a business case, no scale without measurable value. This approach has guided my work across Valero, Phillips 66, and Williams, and it is how I deliver transformation and operations.At Williams, transformation begins and ends with the P&L. Technology decisions follow business cases and expected financial outcomes; not capability roadmaps or vendor relationships. That discipline is what enables technology teams to be a force-multiplier for the company.Beyond the enterprise, I actively support the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy and United Way, investing in literacy, workforce readiness, and community resilience. I serve on the board of CruxOCM and contribute to the WSJ Technology Council.Sustainable transformation requires financial discipline, organizational trust, and a responsibility to the communities we serve.
