Bindu Malini KrishnanSenior Director at Aon Hewitt
SummaryIn my 19+ year career, I have always been identified for certain strengths - my ability to build relationships,
mentor talent and the ability to think "big picture". I enjoy working with people and I believe communication is
one of my strengths. As a leader, I like to give a lot of space for people to experiment and innovate. I am always
asking the question "What have I given back?" and one of my big interest areas is focussing on the CSR
activities at Aon Hewitt and the work I do in this space gives me immense satisfaction.
In my current role, all the above strengths get used to make sure the business unit that I head is growing and
associates deliver quality work.

ExperienceSenior Director (just a change in naming convention of the designation) at Aon HewittOctober 2003 - Present (8 years 11 months)
In the eight+ years at Aon Hewitt there is almost no area in Benefits administration that I havent been a part
of. I have been instrumental in establishing the Customer Service capabilities in India for Aon Hewitt. Have
also managed other varied processes as well, like Ongoing client processing, Transaction Accuracy audits,
Industrial Engineering Group etc. Setting up the voice operations meant not only ensuring the technology was
in place, but setting up the framework for knowledge transfer and contextual training since the domain is
new.
In my current role, I manage the India operations for the East Business Unit and continue leading the
Customer Service operations across business units. Since the past year I have been leading a transformational
initiative called "Control Your Destiny" for my team and the results have been outstanding. The teams are
more engaged and the sense of ownership has increased significantly. This year the continuation of this
initiative is called "Own your destiny". The crux of the program has been to create an inclusive work
environment and "ask" rather than "tell".
Senior Manager at Wipro SpectramindMarch 2001 - October 2003 (2 years 8 months)
I was one of the earliest managers for the technical helpdesk of a leading global PC manufacturer at Wipro
BPO. After being part of operations for a year and a half I moved into the transition team. I was actively
involved in transition and implementation of multiple processes from the US and UK, ranging from customer
service for a large credit card company to an internal technical helpdesk for a leading US consulting
organization. I was also the lead coordinator for COPC both in operations and transition.
