How To Reboot Into One Of The Fastest Growing Tech Powerhouse Brands, Sandeep Kalra - CEO Persistent
Hyper-scaling in a highly competitive sector is not for the faint of heart. You need a team that is hitting on all cylinders—while adding new engines to increase horsepower and capabilities along the way. In the tech-world, you need to competitively unseat and outpace the other business-as-usual systems integrators—and help your clients build out next-generation systems that will allow them to transform their businesses too. After 17 straight quarters of growth, Persistent Systems, is one of the fastest growing global services and solutions company, with 23,000 employees who have tripled revenue to over $1.2B, while its market cap exploded from $700M to over $9.5B. Persistent CEO, Sandeep Kalra, joins us on this episode of The Reboot Chronicles, to unpack how he went beyond merely turning around the company after it hit a speed bump. After developing a new approach to growth, he and his new team rebooted the company through aggressive organic growth, smart acquisitions, and a deep roster of who’s who partnerships. As our listeners know, Reboots must transform an organizations People, Platform, and Passion to be a long-term success—and Sandeep has done just that. Listen in to learn about his journey, as he continues to reboot Persistent into a multi-billion-dollar industry leader, through a positive leadership style, and a hands-on approach to growth—and blind spots that CEOs need to uncover about their businesses and AI.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
