THE ECONOMIC TIMES
About this episode

Wipro, a leading Indian IT company, has been under the spotlight for a string of high-profile exits. CEO Thierry Delaporte's abrupt resignation before his term's end follows a trail of senior departures, including CFO Jatin Dalal and growth officer Stephanie Trautman. Can Wipro's new captain, veteran Srinivas Pallia, navigate the choppy waters? This episode of The Morning Brief podcast dives deep into Wipro's challenges. Was it a leadership crisis under Delaporte's restructuring efforts? How will global economic uncertainties impact them? Host Dia Rekhi speaks with two ace analysts - Phil Fersht of HFS Research and Peter Bendor-Samuel of Everest Group to decode the issues and explore what it'll take for Wipro, under Pallia's leadership, to reclaim its former glory as an IT bellwether.
