I am Ram Krishnan. Welcome to Ramalytics.
I am Ram Krishnan. Welcome to my blog. As the CEO of PepsiCo Beverages North America, I have the honor of leading PepsiCo’s iconic beverage business in North America and look forward to meeting as many of our 60,000 associates across 400 locations as possible as I travel across North America engaging with our employees, customers and consumers.
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. Most recently as CEO of International Beverages and Chief Commercial Officer of PepsiCo. Before that, I served as CEO of the Asia-Pacific Sector, GM of Global Walmart Customer Team, and CMO of Frito-Lay North America. Prior to my tenure at PepsiCo, I enjoyed six years as part of the Cadillac team.
My perspective has been shaped by experiences across business disciplines, industries , geographies, tech platforms, brands and retail formats. My hope is to identify and deliver unique 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 aim to challenge conventional industry wisdom, nudge readers to reconsider what they thought they knew, or inspire them to engage with a tech topic and importantly an application they hadn’t thought much about. Most recently, my writings explore the implications of emerging technologies on traditional digital interfaces - emphasizing the importance of adaptability among business leaders.
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.
