Ani Achugbue Email & Phone Number

Ani Achugbue is a VP of Product at Edgevanta. Colleagues describe them as "I had the pleasure of working with Ani for nearly two years while he was the Executive VP of Product at Clariti Software. During our time as close colleagues, our Product Team and product were undergoing significant evolutions, first to incorporate ideal customer profiles and then to scale quickly to accommodate some of the largest deals in the company’s history. It was clear how Ani carefully and thoughtfully created, articulated, and then put into motion an insightful vision and direction as the company’s product leader. Balancing the tension between the wants and needs of customers, the product and development staff, other collaborating teams, and implementation partners is no small task, and Ani’s ability to listen to and address feedback in such a fast-paced SaaS environment is a testament to his skill as a visionary product leader. I also served with Ani on the company’s EDI committee where I learned more about how he balances his humility and collegiality with the ability to advocate for vital cultural shifts. In meetings and while working on projects, he was an ideal team member, creating space for others’ opinions, sharing his own, and consistently helping us all move towards our common goal of improving equity and inclusion at the company. In addition to being a leader in the truest sense of the word, he is a thorough, dedicated, and generous colleague. I’d be glad to work with Ani again, and any organization looking for an inspiring product leader would benefit tremendously from his skills and leadership." and "It's not every day that you come across a standout talent like Ani. I had the pleasure of working alongside him at Clariti, where he was the head of the Product team. From the outset, Ani made a lasting impression on me during a critical "all hands" project early in my tenure. His intelligence and thoughtful approach to problem-solving were not only impressive but also pivotal in navigating the complexities of the project. As time progressed, our collaboration deepened, especially on initiatives aimed at bolstering interdisciplinary collaboration. Ani's enthusiasm and energy in these meetings were infectious. These sessions, where we tackled challenging and sensitive issues with candour and persistence, are among my fondest memories at Clariti. Ani's leadership style was not just about guiding his team but nurturing a culture of excellence. This was evident in the way his team members presented product features at their bi-weekly scrums – it was a testament to Ani's ability to foster a team of superstars. Working closely with Ani, I've seen firsthand how his blend of intelligence, experience, and drive brings out the best in those around him. His contribution goes beyond just leading a team; he inspires a collective striving for excellence. I feel privileged to have worked with Ani and wholeheartedly recommend him for any future endeavours he chooses to pursue."
