The Economic Times: Ram Charan, Noted Business Adviser to CEOs, Compliments the Strategic Vision of Cognizant CEO, Francisco D’Souza

“Francisco understands that shelf life of technology is short and he is constantly seeking ways to position Cognizant,” Ram Charan, noted business adviser to CEOs, tells The Economic Times, India’s top-selling business daily, on naming Cognizant CEO Francisco D’Souza among the country’s best strategists—“15 dreamers who have translated their insight into reality.”

Attributing Cognizant’s run as the growth leader in the IT industry to D’Souza, the paper describes him as “a high-energy executive who not only has the remarkable ability to put himself in clients' shoes, but can get Cognizant to adapt and respond to market changes swiftly.” The paper adds, “Aggressively building Cognizant’s brand and keeping customers sharply in focus helped open the right doors for Cognizant, but it is D’Souza's ability to discern the direction of change and steer the ship well in time that is keeping the company ahead of competition.”
