REUTERS/Dado Ruvic/Illustration/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSept 28 (Reuters) - Cognizant Technology Solutions (CTSH.O) on Thursday named former Wipro (WIPR.NS) chief financial officer Jatin Dalal as its CFO, a week after his resignation from the Indian information technology (IT) major. The pace of executive churn has picked up in the Indian tech industry in recent months. Dalal became Wipro's CFO in 2015, and with CEO Thierry Delaporte steered the company through the pandemic as demand for digital services boomed. "We are pleased to welcome Jatin to Cognizant and confident he will help us achieve our goals as we continue to focus on driving revenue growth," Cognizant CEO Ravi Kumar S said in the statement. Cognizant projected third-quarter revenue above estimates in August as more businesses turned to the IT services provider to digitize their operations.

While Iyer will take over as CFO on Sept. 22, Dalal will stay on until Nov. 30, Wipro said. Dalal, who became CFO in 2015, and CEO Thierry Delaporte guided Wipro through the pandemic years as demand for digital services boomed. Delaporte said in a statement that Iyer has been integral to Wipro's finance transformation over the last few years.

Hong Kong CNN —Wipro, one of India’s top providers of software services, wants everyone on staff to know how to use artificial intelligence. The IT giant announced Wednesday it would spend $1 billion on improving its artificial intelligence capabilities over the next three years, including training its entire staff of 250,000 people across 66 countries in the fast-moving technology. Its move comes as generative AI, the technology that underpins popular platforms such as ChatGPT, has taken the world by storm. “With the emergence of generative AI, we expect a fundamental shift up ahead, for all industries,” Wipro CEO Thierry Delaporte said in the statement. Businesses are increasingly using AI to either bolster or replace tasks usually carried out by humans.

BENGALURU, July 12 (Reuters) - Indian IT services provider Wipro Ltd (WIPR.NS) said on Wednesday it planned to invest $1 billion into artificial intelligence (AI) over the next three years. The investments will focus on the expansion of AI, big data, and analytics solutions, as well as developing new research and development and platforms, it said in an exchange filing. This comes almost a week after rival Tata Consultancy Services (TCS.NS) said it planned to train 25,000 engineers to get them certified on Microsoft's (MSFT.O) Azure Open AI. Companies across the world, from banks to big tech, have doubled down on investments in AI after ChatGPT, a generative AI chatbot by Microsoft-backed OpenAI took the world by storm in late 2022. "Especially with the emergence of generative AI, we expect a fundamental shift up ahead, for all industries," Wipro CEO Thierry Delaporte said.

"I think that in some ways quiet quitting is the natural sequel to the Great Resignation," professor Adam Grant said. But so has been the Great Resignation, which has seen a massive number of workers actually leaving their jobs. James Detert, a professor of business administration at the University of Virginia, detailed in a post on The Conversation how the Great Resignation, quiet quitting, and unionization efforts at big companies are actually similar. As noted during the panel and seen in previous coverage from Insider, "quiet quitting" isn't actually a new thing. The Great Resignation, and thus its "sequel" of quiet quitting, may continue in 2023 and be sticking around.

The idea of "quiet quitting" may not be anything new. Thierry Delaporte, CEO and managing director at IT company Wipro Limited, also sees quiet quitting as a chance for leaders to reflect on how they need to adjust to the changing labor force. The term quiet quitting was coined in 2022 on social media — with different definitions. People who were unable to resign or were unsuccessful in changing their work environment started asking questions, he said. Long term, it's not just about quiet quitting either, the Davos panel suggested.
The Indian IT services industry, which enjoyed a pandemic-led boom, is now contending with slower spending or at least delays in decision-making due to growing fears of a global recession. Earlier this week, both Tata Consultancy Services (TCS.NS) and HCLTech (HCLT.NS) said European clients were tightening spending. Bengaluru-based Wipro said its fourth-quarter IT services revenue, which accounts for about 98% of overall revenue, could range between a 0.6% sequential drop and a 1% sequential rise, in constant currency terms. Wipro's IT services revenue rose 0.6% sequentially, to $2.80 billion in constant currency terms, in the third quarter, and had jumped 3.1% sequentially in the fourth quarter last year. Still, the company's total order bookings rose 26% year-over-year to $4.3 billion in the quarter ended Dec. 31.
