I am Ram Krishnam. Welcome to my blog. As the Global Chief Commercial Officer of PepsiCo, I oversee R&D, Venturing, Marketing, Sales & Insights, Customer Strategy, Revenue Management, Go-to-Market, E-Commerce, and Design to support PepsiCo’s efforts to accelerate global growth. I also work with our CEO to transform and scale the company’s Data & Digital capabilities.

My path to this position has been a rich and rewarding one. Since 2006, I have served in a number of senior leadership roles with PepsiCo: CEO of the Asia-Pacific Sector, GM of global Walmart Customer Team, and CMO of Frito-Lay North America. Prior to that I enjoyed six years as part of the Cadillac team.

My perspective is unique, because it cuts across business disciplines, tech platforms, and retail formats to help me identify the deeper, universal insights shaping commerce today. 

On my blog, I aspire to cut through the tech jargon to provide an insightful view of the intersections between tech + data + humanity in our fast-moving world. 

My posts challenge conventional industry wisdom, nudge readers to reconsider what they thought they knew, or inspire them to engage with a tech topic and importantly on application they hadn’t thought much about. Most recently, my writings include my take on what it means to lead transformation of a company  in the dynamic, post-covid New Normal.

I am an insatiably curious global citizen who is intrigued by our connected world and the people in it. I hope my readers conclude each post feeling enlightened, inspired, and ready to take on new challenges.

Thanks for reading.
