Burn‘s’ing desire!

Exclusive In chat with Society Magazine - Prof. Arindam Chaudhuri

It seems that Ursula Burns, (the 30-year veteran at Xerox who just took over as its CEO in July this year), is acting boldly to change Xerox’s stodgy image. Well, Xerox has just agreed to buy Affiliated Computer Services (ACS) for a whopping $5.75 billion. No doubt, it’s a smart move from Xerox as the combination will result in $400 million of annual synergies, but then, the moot question is will the deal finally take it away from its age-old image of being just a printer company? “We’re creating a new class of solution provider,” Burns said in a statement. No doubt, the move is a big bet to transform Xerox into a $22 billion business that does everything – from collecting tolls and installing systems to retooling business processes and information technology outsourcing. And who knows ACS may prove to be Burns’ most radiant strike in her new role as CEO!

Designer Tarun Tahiliani gets candid with 4Ps B&M’s Angshuman Paul

IIPM B School : King Khan, Bollywood Badshah and Quiz Wiz — that’s Shah Rukh Khan for you

4Ps B&M: If you were reborn, who would you like to be born as?
TT: If I ever get a chance to choose who I can be reborn as, I would like to be born again as myself but with the wisdom I have today.

4Ps B&M: One thing you can’t resist?
TT: Definitely a good scotch.

4Ps B&M: If you were invisible for a day, what would you like to do?
TT: I will go to my office, simply sit there and watch what exactly happens in my absence.

4Ps B&M: What puts you off?
TT: Arrogance and Hypocrisy. I cannot stand it.

4Ps B&M: The perfect festival outfit?
TT: Definitely not a bikini (laughs). If it’s a festival, I prefer to keep it simple and ethnic. However, as a general rule, anything that you are comfortable in, is the perfect dress for any occasion (smiles).

4Ps B&M: Your most cherished childhood memory?
TT: It’s a Diwali memory. I still remember when I was a kid, my grandfather used to get a huge tokri (basket) full of crackers for all of us. And we used to wait for the festival season all year long. I cherish those times.

4Ps B&M: The person you miss the most during a festival?
TT: My mother. I remember when my mother was alive, she used to run around during festivals decorating the house, making various arrangements and ensuring everything was in place.

4Ps B&M: Fashion today...
TT: ...has moved much beyond just east or west and today’s customer is much more concerned about the colour contrast. But I think one should not be so fussy about colour matching and contrasts. For me fashion is what you are confident in carrying yourself. But yes, you should know the right dressing for right occasion.
