Srini Pallia’s job as Wipro CEO: Drive growth, stem senior-level exits

Wipro has once again chosen to bet on an insider who has grown through the ranks to lead the company. Srini Pallia has spent over three-decades at Wipro and it’s the only company he has ever worked with. Till now, Pallia was heading the Americas-1 unit.

Before Wipro gave the mandate to Pallia, Wipro had ‘outsiders’ as its chief executive for seven years. On January 4, 2016 Abid Ali Neemuchwala was appointed as CEO. He resigned in 2020, and was succeeded by Thierry Delaporte.
