Deepshikha Dharmaraj has been named Chief Executive Officer, BCW India Group, by BCW, the global communications firm intended to move people. Dharmaraj will continue to serve as Genesis BCW’s Chief Executive Officer, in addition to overseeing BCW’s entire business interests in India and implementing the company’s growth strategy, which includes people, clients, and partners.
Genesis BCW and Six Degrees BCW were merged into one business group in the market in January 2020, forming the BCW India Group. Both brands continue to operate independently, with safeguards in place in the event of a conflict. Dharmaraj will be aided in his new job by BCW India Group Chairwoman Prema Sagar, as well as the leadership teams at Genesis BCW and Six Degrees BCW, notably Vandana Sandhir, who is now the CEO of Six Degrees BCW.
“Under Deepshikha’s impressive leadership in 2021, Genesis BCW has achieved one of its best years of revenue growth in its nearly three decades of operation,” said Matt Stafford, President, BCW Asia-Pacific. “Six Degrees has also recorded double digit growth this year under Rishi and Vandana. The time is right for Deepshikha to take on a wider role overseeing both of our fantastic teams in India.”
“India is a critical market for BCW and I’m confident in Deepshikha’s ability to lead the formidable talent under BCW India Group,” said Donna Imperato, Global CEO, BCW and CEO, BCW Group. “I am excited to see how, together with the integrated India team, Deepshikha will continue to innovate our Earned-Plus offer to deliver even greater value to our clients.”
“It has been a great privilege to be part of Genesis BCW’s eventful and illustrious journey over the past 30 years,” said Dharmaraj. “Under BCW India Group, we have faced the challenges of the past two years with our combined assets and come out stronger for it. BCW India Group has ambitious plans for 2022 and I am excited to work closely with both the Genesis BCW and Six Degrees BCW leadership teams to take the business to new heights.”
