Paving the Path towards Success
The 10 Most Influential Women in Tech, 2021 Vol II
With a motto of making a difference and embracing different
opportunities, Anjana Arora had set out on a journey. Today, the pioneering
businesswoman is the Senior Vice President of Infinite Computer Solutions and
is responsible for the company’s burgeoning growth in the market. Herein, Beyond Exclamation proudly highlights
the inspiring journey of Anjana Arora and her road towards achieving business
excellence.
Everything Happens
for a Reason
Growing up, the goal of Anjana was to have a meaningful
impact on those around her. She realized early that both personal and
professional success come from the positive effect we have on our surroundings.
“I have always known that my life was going to be led on
this desire for positive change. As a person that always interested in Science
and Math, so I did not necessarily see myself in a Market Strategy
function. However, I believe my technical
background gives me a good edge is a very measurable industry. I believe everything happens for a reason and
that I am exactly where I was always supposed to be. I found my dream job even though I was not
looking for it.” exclaims Anjana.
Smallest Decisions
have Big Impacts
For Anjana, the best part of her journey has been working
with the many different teams that she has been able to be a part of, both in
small and big businesses. She mentions “By going through this journey and
experiencing new things, I was able to find the best fit for myself.”
Starting off her journey with GE and then moving to PWC
really gave her confidence at a young age to talk to executives and get them to
take action. It also expanded her view of the world. She explains “Being able
to travel and see the world from a different perspective has shown me that
there is still so much to learn and so much more work that can be done.”
However, just like any other individual, the road hasn’t
always been a bed of roses. The toughest part of Anjana’s journey thus far has
been making the decisions that she has had to make to get to where she stands
now. “There are no small decisions in life – even the smallest decisions have
big impacts. Deciding to come back to work after six years, for example, was a
tough decision that left me feeling insecure and scared about what I was
getting myself into. However, that decision brought me to where I am now. Not
only has that decision affected my life, but it has helped me understand where
the younger members of my team are coming from and really help them prepare for
their future,” Anjana recalls.

The ability to serve those who have served us
Vetfed Carenet has
is another work stream that she is proud to be involved with. The company is a partnership between Infinite
and Vetfed. It has established its provider network to provide health
assessments for Veterans across the USA. The strong network of physicians and
medical staff conduct evaluations and capture information required by referring
organizations. The company’s healthcare providers work with the details of each

A Continuous
Journey of Expansion and Growth
Anjana firmly believes her job will grow and change as her
company goes on evolving and expanding. Looking forward, her plan is to
continue to grow as a leader, not only for Infinite but also for her personal
family. “Being a role model for my children has inspired me to not only show
them that they can accomplish anything they put their minds to but also to
empower women everywhere. With a little push and encouragement, people can
accomplish anything.”
Anjana believes that she has not achieved everything she has
set out to do, nor will she accomplish them anytime soon because there are
always new goals to go further than you initially imagined. She asserts “This
is what gives me the fuel and drive to get up every day and finish what I have
started. Life is a long journey full of up and downs, which is what makes goals
and dreams so important; however, those aspirations won’t amount to anything
without hard work behind them. Being able to see Infinite transform from an IT
services company to a front-facing product/Platformization™ company has truly
been an amazing experience. Seeing the company grow and gain market recognition
showed me that my hard work paid off in the end. “
Infinite is on the cusp of its next growth phase, which is an
exciting phase for both Anjana and her team. The company has been growing
exponentially and there is still so much more work that can be done. “This is
just the start of much more to come,” she concludes saying.
