Rajashree R (born 1972) is the Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) of Tata Consultancy Services.[1], a global IT services, consulting, and business solutions organization. She took up the CMO role on February 1, 2020 [2], before which she led the Retail Practice at TCS for 16 years [3], engaging with leading global retailers and driving their transformation and innovation programs.

Education[edit]

Rajashree R obtained a PGDM in Marketing [4] from IRMA, Gujarat.

Career[edit]

Before her stint with TCS, Rajashree learned the ropes of brand management and product marketing as an assistant product manager/assistant brand manager at Beauty Cosmetics [5]. She played a key role in launching Fairever and the perfume brand Spinz [6]. Rajashree then joined Health & Glow, a beauty and wellness retail chain, as Head of Marketing [7].

Rajashree led the Retail Solutions Group for over 16 years, where she built retail as a vertical for the organization. She believes this is where she learned technology and AI and even got patents in AI [8].

Rajashree is also the co-inventor (with a patent in her name) of a system that helps identify various products on the shelves at a retail store to facilitate compliance with respect to planograms [9]. The system provides an expected arrangement of products on the shelves, identifying if the product is placed in an appropriate location [10].

Since taking on the role of CMO at TCS weeks before the global shutdown due to the pandemic, Rajashree has played a key role in helping the organization navigate the extraordinarily challenging times. Under her leadership, TCS' brand value grew by $1.4 billion in 2021[11]. The organization was ranked among the Top 3 most valuable brands in the IT Services sector globally as per the Brand Finance 2021 report [12]. In 2022, Brand Finance named TCS as the second most valuable brand in the IT services sector globally [13].

In 2021, TCS underwent a brand revamp and changed the tagline from "Experience Certainty" to "Building on Belief," which Rajashree believes is "an evolution."[14]

Personal Life[edit]

Born in 1972, Rajashree grew up in numerous cities. She is an admirer of Irish singer-songwriter, activist, and philanthropist Bono and American singer, songwriter, and musician Bruce Springsteen [15]. She enjoys listening to and watching music videos and also admires singer O S Arun, whose concerts she often attends [16].

She lives in Chennai with her husband and son [17].

Awards and Honours[edit]

In 2021, Rajashree R won the Most Promising Tech Marketeers Award for Best Corporate Narrative/Storytelling.[18]

In 2022, Startuplanes ranked Rajashree R no. 2 in their list of top 50 CMOs in India who have created an impact [19]. In 2021, HOTTOPICS.HT named Rajashree R one of the top 100 B2B marketing leaders in technology worldwide [20]
