Aspect Global Appoints Abhijeet Powdwal As Group Chief Strategy Officer

Abhijeet Powdwal has been appointed Group Chief Strategy Officer at Aspect Global, arriving with more than 28 years across strategy development, marketing, business modelling and new ventures.
- New role: Group Chief Strategy Officer, Aspect Global
- Experience: more than 28 years
- Previously: IndiaFirst Life, ICICI Bank, 3i Infotech, JWT and his own consulting business
- Remit: growth opportunities, cross-functional initiatives, innovation, business transformation and new business models
A Brief That Spans The Portfolio
Powdwal will work with senior leadership on strategic priorities across the group, covering growth opportunities, cross-functional initiatives and innovation, alongside business transformation and the search for new business models.
It is a wide brief, and the background behind it is wider than most strategy appointments. His career takes in sales, marketing, profit and loss ownership, information technology and consulting, which is an unusual combination in a discipline that more often produces specialists.
Financial Services, Technology And An Agency
The roster of previous organisations reads across three quite different industries. IndiaFirst Life and ICICI Bank sit in financial services, 3i Infotech in technology services, and JWT in advertising. He has also run his own consulting business.
Having carried a profit and loss line is the part that tends to separate a strategy officer who is listened to from one who is not. Strategy work that has never had to survive its own budget is a different thing from strategy work that has.
In His Words
Powdwal said he was honoured to join Aspect Global at what he called an exciting and transformative stage in its growth journey, adding that he looked forward to contributing to a more integrated, agile and future-ready organisation equipped to create enduring value.
