Clarizen Adds Former HP CIO Naresh Shanker to Its Board of Directors
Clarizen,
the global leader in enterprise collaborative work management, today
announced that Naresh
Shanker, the former Chief Information Officer of HP, has joined its
board of directors. Shanker will serve as a trusted advisor to the
company as it moves into its next phase of growth.
"Enterprises want to accelerate their digital transformation efforts,
and Clarizen can help them do so by enabling them to manage all projects
from a single, collaborative work management platform," said Shanker. "I
chose to work with Clarizen because it is the dominant player in the
Project Portfolio Management (PPM (News - Alert)) market, and I'm excited to help the
company continue to achieve its growth objectives and help enterprises
worldwide become more agile."
As HP's CIO, Shanker led the company's global IT strategy and
operations. He maintained that role following the company's landmak
decision in 2014 to split into two separate entities - HP and Hewlett
Packard Enterprise (HPE). Following the split, Shanker's first order of
business was to oversee the massive effort of separating HP's global IT
infrastructure, which he was able to accomplish in just one year.
Before joining HP, Shanker was Vice President and CIO for Palm, Inc. (News - Alert),
where he had management responsibility for the company's IT strategy and
all of its IT assets. He was instrumental in launching webOS solutions
and services to enable the App Catalog, mobile commerce and cloud
services. Previously, he was responsible for managing Agilent (News - Alert)
Technologies' enterprise business solutions organization, overseeing the
delivery of customer-facing and supply chain solutions worldwide.
"Naresh has had a remarkable career and we are thrilled that he has
agreed to bring his expertise to our board of directors," said Clarizen
CEO Boaz Chalamish. "His experience in leading and executing large scale
global software implementations will add enormous value to our company
and our enterprise customers worldwide."
