About

Garen

Roukhkian

I have a solid track record of structuring and driving enterprise-level transformational programs. With a strong generalist profile, I am recognized for my ability to clearly articulate strategic direction, translate it into an actionable roadmap, and mobilize resources for execution. The breadth of my food industry experience enabled me to organize large, cross-functional and global programs around key strategic pillars, ranging from sustainable cost management to innovation and growth. In between McCain and Kraft/Mondelez, I spent 6 years in Management Consulting, where I helped client organizations transform their business processes and define new operating models. I particularly enjoyed, and later specialized in Innovation Management – helping my clients build lasting capabilities in innovation strategy, portfolio management, and idea-to-launch processes. My client engagements span a range of industries in North America, Europe, Australia and Asia.
