Tonight’s production
Thirty-five years. Four cities. Hundreds of people who are better at their jobs, and as people, because of him. From a trainee at the Chennai plant to Vice President of Operations, Mr. Krishnan led with patience, integrity and a very good sense of timing.
Please join us for dinner, tributes, music and a few surprises as the curtain falls on a magnificent career, and rises on a well-earned encore.
A career in three acts
1992 – 2003
Joined the Chennai plant as a graduate trainee. Learned every machine by name and every colleague by heart.
2004 – 2015
Led the Pune expansion, launched three new product lines and mentored over 200 young engineers.
2016 – 2027
As Vice President, he built a culture of trust, and a tradition of Friday filter coffee.
