As Asia’s businesses seek to scale their investments in technology, they are looking for software that will help drive greater agility, efficiencies, resilience, and innovation across their operations, at speed and scale. With Terry’s passion for people and unyielding devotion to driving exceptional customer-centric outcomes, I am confident that he will lead our team and customers into the next stage of growth, and further strengthen Infor’s roots in the APJ region.”

With a background in entrepreneurship, Smagh is passionate about scaling businesses and grooming leaders, and a huge believer of “get the right team, and the rest will follow”. “We are in a people business -- empathy, humility and respect are the attributes I look for in a leader,” said Smagh. “It’s about developing and motivating a high-performing team that’s collaborative, thrives under pressure and enjoys coming to work every day. I believe that we can foster success and commitment through culture and constant reinforcements on holistic customer engagements and experiences. My goal for talent retention and recruitment is simple – we must continue to stay interested and vested in our people, and create a Best Place to Work in the process.”
Smagh will be responsible for spearheading growth for Infor across a broad range of sectors in APJ, including industrial manufacturing, food and beverage, automotive, high tech, distribution and logistics.
