Girish Rishi is Chief Executive Officer of JDA Software. Rishi joined JDA in January 2017 from Tyco International, where he was responsible for the firm’s global retail solutions business and North America building automation business, which had more than $4 billion in annual revenue. Prior to his role at Tyco, Rishi was senior vice president for the Enterprise division of Motorola Solutions where he transitioned the portfolio to new application frameworks that delivered a compelling user experience.
Previously, he held positions of increasing responsibility in early-stage, high growth companies, including at Symbol Technologies, where he led the EMEA theater. He serves as a board member of Digi International, is a member of the board of directors at UI Labs, and the board of regents at the University of Hartford. He holds a master’s degree in public policy from Johns Hopkins University, a master’s degree in business administration from the University of Hartford and received his undergraduate degree from the University of Mumbai.
Moving from S&OP to IBP is fundamentally changing the way HEINEKEN plan their business and helps them to get to grips with complexity and volatility.
It gives HEINEKEN a better grip on demand and supply making them more ready to respond to business challenges with scenarios and smart segmentation. Moreover, HEINEKEN are working to achieve value rather than volume in order to boost business performance, foster entrepreneurial behaviour and to help beat the competition.
Johan has a strong track-record delivering sustainable operating performance improvement and organisational change, enabled by improved cross functional collaboration with Sales, Finance, Supply Chain and Procurement, empowered by advanced Technology implementations.
The digital revolution is moving fast – how do you best capitalise on the opportunities now? Machine learning, data science and AI are changing the game for companies and consumers. It is at the heart of the collaborative work that Google and JDA are doing to power the digital supply chain of the future and drive extraordinary business value for customers worldwide.
