Mohan Aiyaswami, Former CTO Defence Australia and Strategic Advisor

Culture Makers

I sought out Mohan Aiyaswami after hearing him speak at conference because I was blown away by his breadth of experience in delivering huge pieces of work, his humility and humour.

Mohan's perspective on successful transformation - and the importance of culture in that - was shaped by an early role at Indian Railways working on a complex and ambitious project to introduce online reservations to the largest public sector company in the world at the time.

From there Mohan has worked on the Coles-Myer integration and been CTO of the Australian Defence Force as well as roles at Toll Group, Optus, Mercator Software, Haltek and Citicorp India.

In this episode of Culture Makers Mohan shares his experiences and perspectives on:

Always remembering the end user

Risk-based cultures

Recognising and accepting different cultures and sub-cultures

Disagreeing without making it personal

How innovation lives everywhere

The role of the leadership team in the change journey

How giving back brings people together.
