Will the new CEO be good enough?

We had seen in a previous article about succession planning that, it is really vital for the smooth transition of a firm. We also saw a situation in which a CFO becomes the CEO and really screws up the situation. Now with the fact that Mr Mohandas Pai is all set to become the new anchor of Brand Infosys, will the same question arise years down the line? Was the selection of the anchor rite? Did Infosys have a good succession planning in place? Did Infosys expect the sudden separation of Mr Nandan Nilekani who was a visionary and the man with the golden touch? Time would tell us the answers. Of course, Mr Pai is a shrewd and brilliant man, but his ability to handle business delivery is not tested yet. But with him being the new anchor, it can either be a make or break for Infosys. The shares of Infosys havent fluctuated much over the last one week.
