Honeywell has appointed Jim Bujold as President, Southeast Asia, and
Anant Maheshwari as President, Honeywell India. The appointments reflect the
organisation’s continued evolution, growth and depth of leadership talent in
the country.
Maheshwari, who has been the Managing Director of Honeywell
Automation India Limited (HAIL) since March 2010, will succeed Bujold who is
currently President, Honeywell India. Both Bujold and Maheshwari will transition
into their new roles on January 1, 2014.
“These senior leadership changes reflect not only a robust
leadership talent pipeline, but also our relentless focus on achieving an
outstanding growth trajectory in our High Growth Regions (HGRs),” said Shane
Tedjarati, president of Global High Growth Regions, Honeywell.
“We are confident that both Jim and Anant will play big roles in
Honeywell’s presence in the region. Jim has done a terrific job over the past
three years in driving growth for Honeywell in India. His move to a larger,
regional role aligns with the company’s focus on key HGR countries in Southeast
Asia. The company projects these HGRs to contribute more than 60 percent of the
world’s growth during the next decade,” Tedjarati added. “Anant takes over a
strong organization in India, one of our priority HGRs, and we’re confident
that his leadership abilities will continue to drive growth in the country.”
As President, Honeywell, Southeast Asia, Bujold will oversee
Honeywell’s operations in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Philippines. During
his three-year tenure, Bujold brought to Honeywell India a global outlook,
strategy and vision, with a rich and diverse experience spanning more than
three decades.
Maheshwari has spent close to a decade in Honeywell in a number of
leadership roles of increasing responsibilities. His new role builds upon his
successes in leveraging the region’s growth potential, building strategic relationships
and driving a One Honeywell approach to create a powerful customer value
proposition.
