Together with Krithi, I am working diligently to ensure that the leadership transition that will take place over the next few months will be as painless and unnoticeable as possible for all of our constituents and that TCS will be in a strong position to capitalize on the opportunities that lie ahead “said Rajesh Gopinathan.
