Why TCS is not hiring a new COO
CEO K Krithivasan has said that the company does not plan to appoint Subramanian’s replacement and will redistribute the duties. “He’s (Subramaniam) been doing many things and no single individual can replace him, our current thinking is, our leadership team, we are re-distributing the work he’s been doing and we don’t intend to appoint a new COO,” chief executive officer K Krithivasan said while addressing a press conference post the March quarter earnings.
