The latter is criticized from previous problems related to company governance and waste, because the founder of this ranking is always proud of their origin and humble transparency.Wisely personality, while Sikka is a technology visionary who often amaze stakeholders with futuristic ideas, Parekh is more unpretentious, prefers to subdue his head, win offers and execute.
