S. GOPALAKRISHNAN...
CEO & MD, Infosys Technologies Ltd.
That’s Infosys’ very own Kr(r)is(h)!
Replacing Nandan Nilekani as the CEO & MD of Infosys Technologies Ltd. was never easy, but this man actually made it look smooth! S. Gopalakrishnan (who was the President and JMD since August 2006) was amongst the founder members of the company. He was the prime force behind management of design, development, implementation (and other unheard tasks during those times in India) since the very beginning. He played a key role in aggressively pioneering areas like customer services, technology et al at Infosys. And being a weathered rock when it comes to M&As, he talks of his company’s future merger strategies as, “About 85% of acquisitions fail to deliver value. We are cautious and selective in acquisitions. We want to make sure it’s on our terms...” Proof enough why he’s a leader well-versed with business strategies to take total control of dynamic modern businesses.
