Spring Health Appoints Dipak Golechha, CFO of Palo Alto Networks, to Board of Directors

We're honored to announce the appointment of Dipak Golechha to our board of directors, effective August 1, 2024. Golechha is the chief financial officer of Palo Alto Networks, the global cybersecurity leader, and a seasoned executive across diverse geographies and industries, including consumer products, education and technology.

"We are excited to welcome Dipak to our board of directors. He is a visionary leader, a highly operational CFO and former CEO, and has seen scale at different sizes and stages of companies," says April Koh, co-founder and CEO of Spring Health.

"Dipak has a personal passion for mental health and understands the innovation required to compete in a dynamic industry. His proven track record helping global organizations grow profitably will be a critical asset to our team as we continue to grow ourselves and get more people access to the care they need.”

With more than 25 years of experience in financial leadership roles, Golechha brings a wealth of strategic financial and operational expertise across global brands and enterprises, further augmenting the breadth of experience across Spring Health’s board. Prior to Palo Alto Networks, he served as the CEO and an advisor at Excelligence Learning Corp, a tech-enabled education company, and also served as CFO for Chobani and Nature’s Bounty Company. Earlier in his career, Golechha was a global divisional CFO and COO at Procter & Gamble. 

“The past few years put a spotlight on our global mental health crisis and introduced new expectations for business and world leaders to contribute to the solution,” says Golechha. “While we may conceptually understand the importance of mental health, Spring Health has an actionable data set that proves supporting employees’ mental health increases productivity, job satisfaction and ultimately, business outcomes.

"I am honored to join Spring Health’s board and to be part of their next chapter of growth. It is rare in a career to get to do one truly meaningful thing, let alone multiple, and that is both a gift and a privilege.”
