He also believes in putting clients first and building quality relationships,” Brinded said.
What were White’s thoughts on the new role?
White said, “My success is attributed to the teams I have built and the culture I have helped create. Such culture celebrates even the smallest win and empowers teams to become the best and have the courage to try new ideas. I look forward to fostering this spirit across Nutanix in Asia Pacific Japan and working with the team to help even more organisations modernise their data centres and establish hybrid multicloud environments using Nutanix.”
