Jaipur, Rajasthan, India , November 2025 — Purva Gera has started a new position as Global Head of Talent Management | Business Services at Capgemini, where she will shape the global talent agenda, build leadership capability, and strengthen culture and people practices across Capgemini’s Business Services portfolio. With extensive experience across Web3, banking, EdTech, AI, fintech, and global HR transformation, she brings a powerful mix of strategic depth, people-first leadership, and talent innovation to this global mandate.
In her most recent role, Purva served as CHRO and Co-Founder, leading culture, HR consulting, and business coaching projects for global MNCs, startups, and mid-market enterprises across Web3, Banking, AI, EdTech, Insurance, and Capital Markets. This portfolio allowed her to partner deeply with founders, leadership teams, and high-growth organizations to embed scalable culture frameworks, strengthen organizational design, and advise on people strategy during moments of rapid change.
Before her consulting chapter, she worked as Chief People Officer at Biconomy, where she built the People Operations function for a globally distributed Web3 workforce. She established scalable, remote-first HR practices, designed community-led hiring frameworks, reduced onboarding time by 50% through systems optimization, and introduced crypto-native compensation structures. She also strengthened Biconomy’s values-driven culture through WAGMIs, AMAs, DYOR, masterclasses, and DAO-aligned operating models that promoted autonomy, ownership, and distributed decision-making.
Earlier, Purva led People and Culture at WhiteHat Jr, steering culture transformation during the organization’s shift from startup to growth phase across six countries and a 9,000-employee base. She introduced the “10X Growth with Compassion” framework, significantly uplifted engagement and retention, built talent pathways, and improved Glassdoor ratings from 3 to 4.3/5 while elevating employee satisfaction to 8.6/10. Her work integrated performance systems, leadership development, predictive engagement mechanisms, and remote-first cultural integration.
Her longest professional tenure was with Genpact, where she worked for more than sixteen years, moving across global roles in People Learning & Development, Diversity & Inclusion, Engagement, and Talent Management for 22,000+ employees. She led one of the largest AI-powered reskilling initiatives (GENOME), spanning 90,000 individuals across 25 countries, built global DEI strategies that improved overall gender diversity from 32% to 51%, created global affinity groups, delivered enterprise-scale engagement campaigns, and consulted for global banking clients such as Westpac, NAB, Santander, Nationwide Building Society, TD, and Citi.
At the beginning of her career, Purva contributed to large-scale banking consulting projects across the UK, US, Guatemala, and Australia, where she improved NPS, ESAT, and operational performance. She also developed a voice and accent familiarization tool that improved accuracy from 80% to 99.6% and reduced learning curves from 16 weeks to 4 weeks, recognized as one of the most impactful Green Belt projects in her early consulting journey.
