“I have had the pleasure of interacting with Zensar CEO Ganesh during his stint at Harvard and later during the writing and teaching of the case at HBS. Ganesh and his team have built an exemplary company; their Vision Community and HR processes are especially innovative and world class. My MBA students are always thoroughly engaged when we teach the case.”
“I have had the pleasure of working with Zensar for more than a decade. I have watched the organization grow from small distributed offices to a large world-class campus location. Through all of this growth, the organization has continued to be humble, modest, and customer focused. Over the years, I have come to value the easy access to great talent and key leaders in the organization. Zensar is truly a relationship-based organization that is flexible, creative, and innovative—and above all, it has a customer-first mindset.”
“In a number of ways, the story of Zensar is the story of the Indian IT services industry—from bit players in the global IT value chain to an industry today that is $100 billion in revenue, from body-shopping and Y2K staff augmentation just 15 years ago to complex digital transformation that will define what the world of the future will look like. Ganesh and his team have built a significant and differentiated market position for Zensar in digital, retail, and Oracle; and Apax is delighted to partner with the team on its next journey of success.”
“It has been my proud privilege to know Dr Ganesh Natarajan and through him, several members of the Zensar family.
“Kapela made an investment in Zensar three years ago. We find Zensar to be very professional and honest partners. They have a blue chip client base in South Africa, especially in the financial sector. An indication of their exceptional work ethic and delivery is the fact that they retain their clients for many years; many clients have been with them for longer than 10 years. One could also describe them as very innovative in developing new solutions for leading industry players.
“Zensar has been a very consistent performer under the leadership of Dr Ganesh Natarajan, creating shareholders’ value year after year. Zensar has been one of the top performers in the IT industry and has grown through the core values of customer centricity, continuous innovation, and excellence. Zensar has been highly rated in IT industry by NASSCOM for over ten years.
“Zensar was a fledgling software service company that was transformed into a fast growing mid-size company through relentless pursuit of product process and business model innovation. The company adopted a mature framework for sustaining and accelerating growth by managing business opportunities across horizons of core, emerging services, and future technologies.
The success of companies like Zensar give me hope that India has a great future. I am confident that many Indian companies will build their futures on such a model, helping to change the world for the better.
