Embrace technology to prepare for futuristic roles: TCS Chief

 “I’m impressed at the sheer scale and resilience we have seen across many parts of the economy… But I believe that the response that we are seeing all around us is way better than anything that we could have imagined, say six months back. So overall I believe the operative word is adaptability and resilience, and we are well past the challenge phase of this whole event.” 

 India’s IT sector employment potential will continue to be quite strong and will relatively keep growing in pace with where we see the opportunity… Into the foreseeable future, IT services will remain very attractive and a significant part of the job environment in India, because I believe that the demand for talent and the demand for the services is only going to explode, given the role that technology is playing today and in future.” 

“There are kind of three horizons in which enterprises need to think about it. The first horizon, which has been further accelerated by the pandemic, is how resilient is your digital core… The phase two of it has been significantly driven by innovation and research and essentially integrating best practices across industries into your operating model… Phase three is a more challenging one and that will define it as purpose-led changes to industry structure by adopting ecosystems as an operating model.”
