He will help the company adopt an approach that enables agility and innovation across business teams without risking business resilience, scale and data security.
"It's clear there has been a seismic shift in how businesses serve their customers and how their employees engage with technology, with their work, and with each other," said Jan Arendtsz, Founder and CEO at Celigo. "The agility and innovative spirit born out of the pandemic is now a permanent part of the organizational culture. Meeting these new expectations demands that technology leaders reimagine their roles to empower this cultural change. Asad is the ideal person to lead this transformation at Celigo."
