BENGALURU : When Frenchman Thierry Delaporte took the CEO’s job at Indian IT services major Wipro Ltd , the currents had not been in the company’s favour. Our new operating model will drive agility and empowerment for leaders and teams who are closest to the clients," Delaporte said in an interview. “This is in line with putting (the) customer at the centre of the operating model and driving proximity with them," he added. Wipro has taken an aggressive stance on mergers and acquisitions because “M&A is an integral part of our business strategy," Delaporte said. Vivek Paul replaced Soota as the vice chairman in 1999 and under his leadership, Wipro touched the $1 billion revenue mark in 2004.
