Hello friends,
When I listened to Anshul Agarwal talk about his morning routine, I expected discipline. What I didn’t expect was how seamlessly he’d connect tennis footwork, coffee conversations, and CFO strategy into a single coherent philosophy.
Anshul is Chief Financial Officer and Board member of Akkodis in India, a global digital engineering company and part of Adecco Group, Switzerland. He’s a chartered accountant by training, but his versatility runs deeper than credentials. Over thirteen years in Bangalore, he’s evolved from tracking balance sheets to architecting business strategy, proving that modern finance is much more about foresight, not hindsight.
“The CFO’s role has moved from running the scoreboard to running the playbook. We are no longer sitting on the sidelines. We are in the huddle deciding plays.”
We recorded this episode in Bangalore, where Anshul has traded his hometown lemon tea for a strong South Indian filter coffee. What emerged was a masterclass in how curiosity, consistency, and strategic thinking compound over time.
