For nearly two decades the growth of our company and its people has been my prime motivator and I am extremely proud of what we have accomplished together. My journey has been exciting, enjoyable and fulfilling. It has been a pleasure working with Rohit, the rest of the leadership team, and indeed all the employees of EXL. I leave knowing the company is the strongest it has ever been and stands well-positioned for the digital future. I look forward to watching its continued success.”
