HR is often relegated as a less important component of a business. Marketing, product development, and corporate all drive the company externally — but, a good HR department can keep the business organized and thriving. More importantly, HR is at the heart of inclusion for people who are overlooked.
Inclusion and internal excellence are exactly what Suchitra Rajendra does best. Suchitra is the Founder of QED!HR and the former PepsiCo India VP of Human Resources. Under her leadership, their HR department succeeded in challenging the status quo and diversifying the business.
