With 10+ years professional experience, I am a strategy and corporate development leader driving growth through M&A, strategic partnerships, and venture-led initiatives across complex, global organizations. My work sits at the intersection of strategy, execution, and influence - helping leadership teams translate ambition into outcomes. Across management consulting, venture capital, and corporate development, I have led initiatives spanning deal strategy, partnerships, operating model design, and transformation, with a growing focus on AI‑enabled growth and ecosystem plays. I am particularly drawn to roles that require structured thinking, cross‑functional alignment, and trusted partnership with senior executives. Currently at Honeywell, I support enterprise value creation through corporate development and strategic partnerships, working closely with senior leaders and external partners to evaluate, structure, and execute high‑impact opportunities. I am known for operating effectively in ambiguity, aligning cross‑functional teams, and serving as a trusted thought partner to executives. I hold an MBA from the University of Rochester (Simon Business School) and am a Chartered Accountant (CPA equivalent). Beyond my corporate role, I mentor founders and emerging leaders (set up time here: https://topmate.io/disha_unadkat/) and was recognized as a 2024 LinkedIn Top Community Voice, sharing perspectives on M&A, partnerships, leadership, and growth. On a weekend, you’re as likely to find me networking on a trek as in a boardroom - where perspective, authenticity, and meaningful connection shape the strongest ideas and partnerships.
