“TEDx speaker, Top 10 Diverse Leaders UK Tech, who led $150M+ in global deals”
Padmasini Dayananda (Padma) is a TEDx speaker, ICF-certified transformation coach, and strategic growth advisor with 24+ years of global tech and business experience. She spent 18+ years at Cognizant, rising to Global Head of ESG Outreach, where she built one of the world's largest volunteering-led social impact programs across 40 countries - including the IBM initiative to adopt 250 UK schools. She has personally led deals worth $150M+, holds credentials from Harvard Business School Online and London Business School, and has been recognised as #4 in the Top 10 Diverse Leaders in UK Tech, Women in IT 2022, TechWomen 100 UK, Social Mobility Champion 2023, and Brainz 500 Global Awards 2025. She is also a certified Social Value Practitioner. A call with Padma suits women leaders and entrepreneurs in tech navigating AI disruption, career reinvention, or burnout - who need both strategic rigour and personal transformation. Her proprietary Triple-E framework helps clients break cycles of overdoing and under-recognition, elevate their visibility, and scale sustainably. She delivers keynotes on AI, uncertainty, and social impact - including at events connected to King Charles III's Harmony project - runs the Triple-E Reset Retreat, and coaches aspiring speakers through her Idea to TEDx Stage programme.
