About Laxman Rajagopal

Laxman Rajagopal is a passionate technology leader with a global mindset gained from a career that has spanned across Europe, North America, and Asia. Laxman leads value management for the Digital Technology Group at ServiceNow and serves as the product leader for implementing the Strategic Portfolio Management suite of products, enabling ServiceNow to plan and execute for scale without compromising agility.

“What’s next?” drives Laxman’s thinking pattern and his early career stint as an entrepreneur has defined his work, life mantra – own, deliver, adapt and thrive. Prior to his current role, he served as Principal Managing Consultant for a prominent global tech firm and was a member of the employee shadow board of a $5 billion enterprise, collaborating with CXOs on strategic initiatives. Laxman is married, blessed with two curious kids and calls California home. You can spot him noodling on seemingly far-fetched ideas on tech startup events.

To scale their business more effectively and maximise value across the enterprise, ServceNow needed to rethink how they could deliver work as a holistic organisation, and not as a group of disparate Agile teams.

Laxman Rajagopal will share how transforming with a purpose has enabled ServiceNow to align its work with a set of strategic, measurable goals, while visualising cross-functional plans through different business lenses.

ServiceNow uses Agile every day within the organisation. Laxman will walk you through the process, challenges, and successes and show you how you can achieve full transparency and flexibility to prioritise and share common strategic goals with various stakeholders, using a single platform.
