About

Amit Sinha — Global Analytics, AI & Decision Intelligence Leader

I help global organizations transform analytics, data, and AI into trusted decision systems that connect strategy, operations, and measurable business outcomes.

With 20+ years of experience across CPG, manufacturing, retail, and digital transformation, I focus on building scalable analytics ecosystems, AI-powered decision platforms, global KPI frameworks, and human-centered data products that leaders trust and teams actually use.

My work sits at the intersection of business strategy, analytics, AI, product design, and enterprise transformation. I help organizations move beyond fragmented dashboards and disconnected reporting toward governed, AI-native decision systems that provide context, explain performance, surface risks, and guide action.

Currently, I serve as a senior leader in Analytics, AI, Strategy and Transformation at PepsiCo, where my work spans Commercial, Consumer, Marketing, Supply Chain, Procurement, Revenue Growth Management, Go-to-Market, Retail Execution, and enterprise performance domains. I also contribute to AI Labs and Innovation Center initiatives focused on applied AI innovations such as digital twins, agentic AI, computer vision, sustainability analytics, and intelligent automation.

This space brings together my thinking, frameworks, and practical lessons on modern analytics, AI-enabled decision systems, and human-centered AI design — grounded in real transformation programs, not hype.

What I Help with:

I focus on three intersecting domains:

GenAI for business leaders: Practical frameworks to move from AI tools to outcomes.
Design thinking & experience design: Creating AI experiences people trust and use.
Leadership in the age of AI: Developing the mindset and capabilities leaders need today.

This isn’t about adopting the latest tool — it’s about designing purposeful AI systems that amplify human decisions.

Over the past two decades, I have led large-scale enterprise transformation programs across global CPG, retail, manufacturing, and modern digital organizations. I have built and scaled cloud, data, and AI platforms—including Generative AI and agentic AI systems—across ecosystems such as AWS, Azure, GCP, and Groq, along with modern data and analytics platforms (Databricks, Snowflake), enterprise AI platforms (Azure OpenAI, Vertex AI), and customer and enterprise systems (Salesforce, SAP S/4HANA).

My work delivers measurable impact across strategic insights, commercial performance, frontline execution, supply chain, and manufacturing, enabling organizations to move from fragmented capabilities to connected, AI-powered decision ecosystems at scale.

One of my earliest AI solutions was recognized as a Top Innovative AI application by NASSCOM — reinforcing my long-standing commitment to practical and responsible AI.

At the heart of my work is a simple idea – Great intelligence systems succeed when they empower people — not overwhelm them.

I apply a mix of – Design thinking, Lean startup principles, Behavioral motivation frameworks and AI & analytics practice. This approach ensures solutions are not just technically sound but contextually meaningful and behaviorally adoptable.
