Delhi, India
As a Chief Compliance Officer with over 25+ years of experience, I’ve led compliance, governance, and risk management initiatives across a range of industries, including banking, oil & gas, aerospace, and IT/OT automation. Currently, as Chief Compliance Officer, India at Honeywell, I drive strategies to navigate complex regulatory environments and develop data-driven, risk-based programs that enhance governance structures. Throughout my career, I’ve successfully executed predictive analytics and personalized risk management strategies that anticipate potential challenges. Leading cross-functional teams, I ensure robust governance systems that adapt to the dynamic global market. My work at Honeywell has been recognized with awards such as the Golden Peacock Award for Corporate Ethics and Top 30 Chief Compliance Officers in India by Startup Times. With deep expertise in anti-corruption, fraud detection, and third-party risk management, I’ve designed forward-thinking compliance frameworks, particularly for high-risk geographies like South Asia. My leadership includes managing sensitive investigations, overseeing compliance efforts during M&As, and establishing enterprise-wide monitoring systems. Prior to Honeywell, my roles at General Electric and American Express helped me develop and lead compliance programs in high-risk environments, winning accolades like GE’s Functional Excellence Award. I’ve been fortunate to contribute to growth-oriented compliance strategies that support resilience and ethical standards in all organizations I’ve been part of. Beyond my professional contributions, I’m committed to empowering women in leadership. I mentor emerging leaders on building their personal brands, executive presence, and leadership skills, while actively serving on corporate boards and advisory committees that shape the future of compliance and governance practices. Recognized for my leadership in ethics and compliance, I’ve received multiple honors, including the Sashakti Sanmaan Award for top women leaders. In my continuous pursuit of knowledge, I’m currently pursuing an LLB to further refine my expertise in law, complementing my MBA from S.P. Jain Institute of Management and Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from R.V. College of Engineering. I believe in the power of collaboration and integrity to drive success in today’s evolving compliance landscape.
