Infosys keen to hire a non-founder CEO

Infosys is keen to choose an outsider as its first non-founder CEO, people familiar with deliberations at the software company said, contrary to the widely held perception that it is almost certain to promote one of its own executives to the coveted post. In its best-case option, the company’s board wants to hire a person capable of being a strategy guru for the company while eloquently articulating Infosys’ value proposition in the boardrooms of the world’s top corporations. This person will work in tandem with an incumbent who will be promoted as chief operating officer, two sources said.
