Bengaluru/Mumbai: Tata Consultancy Services Ltd’s (TCS’s) chief executive officer (CEO) Rajesh Gopinathan likens his role at India’s biggest software services company to that of a conductor leading a musical ensemble. Less than three months after the Tata group holding company, Tata Sons Ltd, sacked Cyrus Mistry as chairman on 24 October 2016, Gopinathan was named CEO of TCS. Typically, it takes 18-24 months to know for sure if a company has managed a successful CEO transition. But with Rajesh, financial discipline is one thing I have learnt,” said Ghosh of TCS. Otherwise, I am merely a financial investment engine- TCS CEO Rajesh GopinathanGopinathan maintains TCS will build both technologies and talent rather than buy it from outside.
