Chandra's new marathon.

Natarajan Chandrasekaran popularly known as N Chandra has taken the top thrown at TCS from his predecessor Subramaniam Ramadorai who lead the company from 1999.When Chandra became the COO last year signals were sent out for his succession for the top post.If Ramadorai can be termed as the one who created this large enterprise it was Chandra who took TCS global and brought more agility in its operations. Chandra always had control of all the Business Units and it was his decision to venture TCS into different geographies.Chandra's striong Customer focus initiatives and ability to win large deals was critical for TCS's growth in the recent past.The man behind the $500mn Citi group BPO deal and acquisition of the UK based pearl group knows that the company has to move from its linear model of revenue growth.

Chandra would try to make the operations more lean and agile by making more leadership positions which might play a key role in decision making within the individual business units.Given its massive size with 1.5 lakh employees and a strong customer base , Chandra would like to improve the profit margins and Win deals in the space where the global heavy weights like IBM,HP and Accenture are dominant.

Wishing him all the best to take TCS to further heights !!!
