A one man army

Chandra is known for his passion for clients and he has successfully pioneered several key initiatives at TCS

A graduate in Applied Science from the Coimbatore Institute of Technology; a post graduate in Computer Applications from the Regional Engineering College – Trichy, Tamil Nadu; an active member of Computer Society of India and the British Computer Society; named as one of the top 25 most influential consultants in the world; member of Executive Council, Nasscom; Director of E2E SerWizol Solutions Limited (A subsidiary of Tata Sons Ltd.) and NABARD Consultancy Services (P) Ltd; N. Chandrasekharan is truly a man of many talents. He was appointed COO of TCS about 17 months ago, and was elevated to the position of ED on the company’s board. It is being speculated that Ramadorai will hand over the reins to him. He manages a remarkable number of responsibilities that are critical to the success of TCS. Commenting on his competencies, Dhiren Savla, CIO of Kuoni Travel Group, India comments to B&E, “Chandra is a dear friend for the last many years... and I certainly see him as a leader who can take TCS to the next level.” Chandra is responsible for the formulation and execution of the company’s global strategy, including expansion of its business portfolio to include BPO, Infrastructure and Consulting services. He pioneered the creation of a unique Global Network Delivery Model and ventured into emerging markets including Europe, China and Latin America. He is the chief architect of TCS’ Integrated Quality Management System, which made TCS the first CMMI and PCMM level-5 organisation in the world. Well known for his passion for clients and committed to his work, Chandra’s “career trajectory” reflects that of Ramadorai.
