LinkedIn News India for the story: Global markets home to Indian IT CEOs: I’ve seen firsthand how having leadership closer to key markets makes a huge difference. When leaders are on the ground, they can build stronger relationships, understand client needs better, and make faster decisions. But I also know it’s not always easy—adapting to new cultures and managing teams across different time zones is a challenge. That’s why CEO coaching is so important. It helps leaders navigate these shifts and stay effective no matter where they are. Exciting times for Indian IT!
awesome.

Sad scenario of Indian industrial growth, falling margins all around. Only Mahadev can rescue us on this Maha kumbh. All CEO’s CXOs should go to Prayagraj to have a dip along with Steve Jobs wife. In front of Steve we are nothing. Jai Bholenath 🕉🪔🙏🇮🇳
