Urvesh Goel

“I had the honor and privilege of working with Urvesh when he was a Services Business Leader at Convergys. Urvesh is unique in his ability to identify and solve both technical and business problems. He has a deep understanding of technology and how to utilize it to solve business challenges. He was able to aggressively capitalize on the many opportunities with an entrepreneurial zeal, along with a willingness to take calculated risks not seen by many of his peers. He was also able to effectively work around the corporate bureaucracy in order to deliver results. ”

“Quote below from George Bernard Shaw sums up well what I have to say about Urvesh. “Reasonable people adapt themselves to the world. Unreasonable people attempt to adapt the world to themselves. All progress, therefore, depends on unreasonable people.” Urvesh has been a manager and mentor. Eye for detail, perseverance and single minded focus on results is what I learnt from him. He has taken charge when there were total chaos and no hope of revival and turned the situation around – completely. He would build the best team and engineer results that the team, at first, would not believe itself to be capable of. As he often tells me seeking to be understood take courage and communicating the vision clearly is the key to success of his team. I wish him well and always look for another chance to work with him.”

“I had the privilege of working for Urvesh from 1998 to 2003 in Amdocs as Product Manager. During this time, Urvesh was single-handedly responsible for identifying, visualizing and implementing a telecom billing software application that gained the company several million dollars in revenue. It was the first product implemented as the opening step wherever Amdocs wanted to establish a foothold in a new country. During his tenure at Amdocs, Urvesh transformed this obscure application into a world-class design solution that is still actively in production among the largest telecom providers in the world. Urvesh has the discernment to visualize potential, formidable capacity to plan strategy and the mental will to transform theory into profitable practice. As a previous colleague and team member I endorse Urvesh without reservation: for his professional and technical integrity, his singular determination to achieve success and a unique willingness to propagate that success among his business partners.”

“Mix sharp intellect, innovation, strong execution, inspirational talent management, result orientation and great humor. Present this in the best balanced form of aggression and humility. There's Urvesh for you. As a colleague, I always marvelled at his strategic thinking, dogged determination, leadership skills and most importantly an astute sense of business. And so many of us have learnt such a lot from him. He has always been selflessly focused in giving shape to his vision and leaving the safety net of a cushy job to embrace the risk of leading a start-up came very naturally to him. I wish Urvesh and SyberPlace a very exciting and rewarding future.”
