Priyanka Sikka joins Mahler as Director of Sales, Asia

The Mahler Co., a supplier of global leadership development, is pleased to announce that Priyanka Sikka has joined our global management team as Director of Sales, Asia. “Priyanka brings a broad background in marketing professional services in a variety of industries. She has worked for Indian and US companies and we are looking forward to working with her to build our Asian business”, says Mahler board member, Yogi Mistry.

“The challenges faced by the Indian economy are impressive”, says Mahler CEO, Dr. Philip Janson. “With enormous growth in the tech sector, an emerging middle class and strong growth in the rest of the economy, there is a huge need to develop global leaders who can be effective not only on the sub-continent, but with non-Indian cultures as well”, says Janson.

“I believe Indian business can benefit greatly from the Mahler approach to leadership development. The firm has been helping companies all over the world move from command and control to more participative styles of management for over 30 years. My job is to get the word out that we can be enormously helpful as Indian leaders become more global in their perspective,” says Ms. Sikka. “Management, communication, coordination across cultures can be difficult”, she adds. “Our 360 feedback surveys, leadership assessments and management tools and techniques can go a long way toward easing the cultural integration of Indian managers with those in other cultures”.

Ms. Sikka will be working initially on providing solutions and representing The Mahler Co. to the Indian market. She is based in New Delhi and Mumbai and travels widely in the region. Her email address is psikka@mahlerco.com
