TOKYO, Oct. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Genpact Japan
K.K. (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo), the
Japanese subsidiary of Genpact (NYSE: G), a global professional
services firm focused on delivering digital transformation, today
announced that it has appointed Junichi
Tanaka as the new Representative Director Japan to
strengthen Genpact's digital transformation business in the
Japan market. The appointment is
effective immediately.
Prior to joining Genpact Japan K.K., Tanaka was partner, Digital
Labor and Transformation Lead at KPMG Consulting Co., Ltd., where
he focused on assisting clients in achieving their business
transformation goals using next-generation technologies such as RPA
and AI. He has been also an active speaker and contributor for
promoting the adoption of RPA in Japan in his role as executive director of the
Robotic Process Automation Association. Tanaka served as partner at
both global and domestic consulting firms in Japan prior to joining KPMG Consulting. He
received a bachelor's degree in science and engineering from
Waseda University, Tokyo.
"We are thrilled to have Mr. Tanaka, a recognized business
leader in driving digital transformation, join us as Genpact's
leader for Japan. He brings with
him invaluable experience in leading complex business
transformation which perfectly bolsters our strategic agenda to be
the partner of choice," said Ahmed
Mazhari, Chief Growth Officer, Genpact. "In a complex
business environment, our clients increasingly need trusted
partners with deep business and process expertise as well as
significant digital capabilities. Under his leadership, we will
strengthen our presence in Japan
to accelerate and comprehensively enable Japanese companies to
achieve end-to-end business transformation."
"In this wave of digital disruption, existing businesses are
facing a crisis of survival, and transforming business models and
ways of working is a pressing issue for Japanese companies,"
said Yoshiaki Fujimori, Senior
Executive Advisor, Genpact, serving since January 2018. "In order to improve the
productivity of Japanese companies that is stagnant globally, we
need to harness newly emerging technologies such as RPA and AI, and
to advance the change with a sense of speed. By Mr. Tanaka's
appointment as Genpact's leader of Japan, I expect that Genpact will further
strengthen the business base in Japan and be able to create additional
corporate value through digital transformation."
"Digital technologies such as RPA and AI have deployed rapidly
in Japan, regardless of the size
of a company or organization, and are expected to be introduced to
Japanese companies by 70 percent in 2020. On the other hand, as
digital technologies expand rapidly, various risks are surfacing in
adoption and operations. Genpact has a wealth of experience in
driving digitally-enabled intelligent operations and digital-led
innovation for global companies, so we will build on this strong
foundation to further expand the company's digital business from
planning to adoption and operations so that Japanese companies can
reap substantial outcomes in digital transformation," said
Junichi Tanaka.
