About Raj Bengani

It was Christian Lous Lange who said, “Technology is a useful servant but a dangerous master”. These words that resonate well with me. They express what I grew up believing in – that technology must be harnessed – for the new, for the better and for change. It’s not technology for tech’s sake. I am a big believer of disruptive technology, a champion of innovation and a challenger of status quo. In my mind, status quo means moving backwards. My dislike for the mediocre and my passion for technology came together in my profession. I revel in the dynamism of the changing landscape of the IT world and its challenges. In pushing the borders of the constantly changing interface of the corporate as well as the technology world, I’ve stepped into unknown territories and made them my own. I’m at heart a sales professional grown into a leader and strategist. I play to win. I am at ease with Business Development, Sales, Global Delivery, IT Strategy. My idea of resource management is not numbers (even a but the value the individual brings to the table to create a larger picture.I take on challenges of creating new units out of nothing, making them grow, thrive and very successful. This has been as much as a 300% increase in turnover in less than a year - a repeated achievement in my career. I believe there is a solution to every problem no matter how wicked, and mostly that solution lies with me because of my can-do attitude- I think normal is boring - I believe in the impossible- I zig when others zag. The new wave of technology excites me and I thrive on the dynamism it represents in a VUCA world. I’m here to see and share world visions on technology though the views I express are my own.
