SHEROES has brought in Unny Radhakrishnan, as its Chief People and Business Officer. Unny, a WPP veteran was until recently the Chief Digital Officer at Wavemaker part of GroupM/WPP.
A well respected industry professional, Unny will lead company’s efforts in ramping up scale and strength of the company for all its stakeholders – teams, businesses, brands and partners.
“Building a consumer internet company which has Empathy and Trust as the OS (operating system) happens perhaps once in a blue moon. SHEROES is truly the New Internet for women, and I am very excited to be a part of it,” says Unny, who brings with him 20 years of experience in Marketing Communications, Digital Media & Marketing, and Technology & IT.
In his earlier role as Chief Digital Officer at Wavemaker part of GroupM/WPP, Unny was responsible for developing and leading the digital practice, including media, creative, technology, social, and analytics, and building a highly successful team of over 200 people. He spent over a decade at Wavemaker.
“Connecting the world’ is the most often stated ‘mission’ statement of online networks. But building a network as an eco-system with everything focused for the benefit of the community is more challenging and deeper. That’s what differentiates SHEROES. My work, in a sense will be at the intersection of People, Product and Market.”
SHEROES, the largest women-only community platform, is ramping up its leadership team, including its engineering and product teams as it sets out to become a 500 million women platform.
Founder and CEO of SHEROES, Sairee Chahal says, “Having colleagues who believe in our vision of ‘anxietyless growth’ is invaluable as we disrupt and reimagine how women experience the internet.
SHEROES is a value system and an ecosystem. Our core teams live and breathes our tenets of trust, empathy and growth. Unny’s experience in the brand ecosystem as well his personal ethos will help us shape the platform and our narrative. SHEROES ecosystem offers value to women across their core needs of work, play and support. We will continue to build depth in the platform and the company.”
SHEROES is also home to Maya and Babygogo along with its remote workforce platform MARS. SHEROES has language capability in over 20 Indian and global languages and has a footprint across the globe including South Asia, Middle East and Latin America.
