Akshay Nara is a Senior Manager in Agentic AI at EXL, where he leads engineering teams and advises Fortune 500 clients on building, scaling, and governing enterprise AI systems. With over 9 years at the frontier of Conversational AI, GenAI, and Agentic AI, Akshay brings rare depth — from hands-on platform architecture to C-suite advisory — making him one of the few practitioners who can credibly bridge the gap between technical implementation and enterprise strategy.
His client portfolio spans some of the most demanding industries in the world: healthcare (CVS Health, McKesson, CoverMyMeds), financial services (Experian), and industrial manufacturing (Stanley Black & Decker, Cinch). Across these engagements, Akshay has designed and deployed production-grade Conversational AI systems leveraging platforms including Google CX Agent Studio, Dialogflow CX, Amelia v4–v7, Sierra AI, Omilia, and Google Cloud Vertex AI — consistently driving operational efficiency, cost reduction, and improved customer experience at scale.

His work gives him a practitioner's perspective on what actually works in production, beyond the hype.
Akshay holds certifications as an Nvidia Certified Associate in Generative AI & LLMs, Amelia 7.0 Agentic AI, and holds two Google GenAI certifications.

I am a Microsoft Power Platform Developer specializing in designing scalable low-code solutions for enterprise environments. In my daily work, I build solutions with Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse, and SharePoint Online, often integrating the Power Platform with Azure services when low-code capabilities need to be extended with pro-code components.

I have experience in building business applications, automating processes, and implementing governance and ALM practices across organizations of various sizes — from business team solutions to production environments structured around DEV, TEST, and PROD. My work focuses on architectural quality, security, cost control, maintainability, and the long-term reliability of delivered solutions.

Beyond project delivery, I actively share my knowledge as a speaker and trainer. I lead training sessions and workshops on Power Platform, SharePoint, and Power Automate, and I speak at meetups and community conferences across Poland.

I am especially interested in technology adoption, improving the way teams work, and combining low-code and pro-code approaches in a thoughtful and practical way. I believe that the Power Platform is not just a toolset for building “quick apps,” but a mature ecosystem that — with the right architecture and governance — can become a strong foundation for modern business solutions.

A technology executive with 20+ years turning technology strategy into measurable business outcomes — today leading the web & digital platforms at Italiaonline, Italy's largest internet company.

My remit spans the enterprise-technology agenda beyond engineering: I lead multidisciplinary teams and own the delivery agenda end-to-end, from planning and quality to budgets and vendor partnerships, keeping the technical roadmap aligned with corporate strategy and measurable outcomes.

I make AI work at enterprise scale — and make it understandable to everyone. I own the company-wide AI strategy, including the AI governance framework adopted across the organization, and I sit on the AI steering committee. I modernize platforms on cloud infrastructure and design for security and compliance from the ground up, with ethics and customer value built in.

A few highlights from my career:
• Across senior roles, led cross-functional teams of up to 100+ and owned budgets up to €25M+.
• Shipped a productized, voice-enabled agentic AI assistant to market (AWS, OpenAI LLMs, ElevenLabs voice, RAG, CRM) — autonomously handling lead generation, scheduling and customer support; now at around 100 sales a month, generating hundreds of thousands of euros in monthly revenue.
• Scaled Gucci's global e-commerce platform past €1M in daily online revenue (double-digit growth, 99.9% uptime) and led its full CI/CD implementation.
• Industrialized 80% of delivery processes and cut production time 10—30% by embedding AI across the pipeline for 100K+ SME clients.

I work across finance, fashion & luxury, automotive, pharma, manufacturing, telco, retail, media and food & beverage.

I also believe technology only matters when people understand it. That's why I wrote a book on AI for non-experts, write for Codemotion (Italy's largest developer community), and mentor early-stage founders.

I'm steadily broadening my remit across the full enterprise-technology agenda.

Open to conversations on technology leadership, AI strategy & governance, speaking and advisory.

David Dean is an author, speaker, and business AI realist who explores how artificial intelligence reshapes work, judgment, and accountability in modern organizations. Through his writing and speaking, Dean surfaces the subtle ways automation and intelligent systems alter decision-making, responsibility, and trust in everyday work environments.

He spent eighteen years working inside complex enterprises—healthcare organizations, financial institutions, corporations modernizing under regulatory pressure—watching strategy collide with reality. He built the systems. Led the teams. Cleaned up after initiatives that looked flawless in planning but fractured on impact. What he learned wasn't about technology. It was about behavior.

Rather than focusing solely on AI capabilities, Dean examines the human elements that remain essential: how people navigate uncertainty, where accountability lies when AI assists or automates, and what holds organizations together when technology accelerates faster than clarity. His approach helps organizations notice what's already changing beneath the surface, turning AI-driven uncertainty into clear direction.

Dean's technical background is deep—AI architecture, intelligent automation, data strategy, governance—but his focus has always been what those systems reveal about how people actually work. His perspective comes from the inbox, the handoff, the approval chain where decisions shift and accountability dissolves.

An Inbox Between Us offers a conversation about responsibility, AI, and the shifting landscape of contemporary work. As a speaker and consultant, Dean helps teams understand how AI enters daily decisions, clarify what choices belong where, and build work systems that hold up under pressure.
