Punit Renjen has been named chairman and chief executive officer of Deloitte Consulting LLP, one of the world’s leading technology consultancies. A principal, he succeeds Douglas J. Lattner, who led Deloitte Consulting in the U.S. since 2003.
"Working alongside the leaders of our audit and risk advisory, tax, and financial advisory services businesses, I’m confident Punit will be instrumental in driving Deloitte to be globally recognized for setting the standard among professional services organizations in client service excellence and creating an environment where top consulting talent chooses to be,” said Barry Salzberg, chief executive officer of Deloitte LLP.
Renjen said in a statement, “Deloitte Consulting LLP is known for its strategy and execution capabilities; helping companies transform; helping companies optimize their talent and human capital strategies; providing innovative technology advisory and implementation services; and delivering merger and post-merger integration services.”
“We have a track record of double-digit growth over the past six years, and we significantly expanded and fortified our presence in strategic sectors, including the federal arena, through the acquisition of BearingPoint’s North American Public Services practice earlier this year.”
He added, “Our commitment to our people is best reflected in Deloitte being named ‘The Best Place to Launch Your Career’ by BusinessWeek magazine for two years, being named a ‘Best Firm to Work For’ in 2009 by Consulting magazine and perennially ranked on Fortune’s ‘Best Companies to Work For’ list.”
Renjen has more than 22 years of experience with Deloitte Consulting. For the past two years, he was global and U.S. leader of Deloitte Consulting’s strategy and operations practice.
Named one of Consulting magazine’s “Top 25 Most Influential Consultants" in 2007, Renjen currently serves on the Deloitte LLP board of directors and the Deloitte Consulting executive committee.
He is also a member of the board of trustees of Willamette University, where he obtained his MBA. He and his family reside in Portland, Ore. |
