BENGALURU: In his New Year’s message to the employees, Infosys CEO Vishal Sikka on Monday has stressed the importance of automation and warned employees against “lackadaisical” attitude towards greater value creation.

He said that teams have begun to understand and execute on the duality of automation and innovation and to bring value to clients “not just mechanically execute the jobs we are handed,” adding, “there is a long way to go, and the road ahead is long and not easy.”
By achieving all that they set out to do, Infosys can be a force powering the purposeful evolution of our world, he noted.

“We must remember that operational excellence is an imperative for each one of us. We must focus on delivering the best solutions in the smartest, fastest way possible, and not give up or give in to weaker instincts,” Sikka said.
“Often teams deliver only what is told without going beyond the given scope and with a lackadaisical attitude towards greater value creation. This can no longer be the case.” He said “the mountains ahead are tall ones. But there is no other way but to get there and go... if we don’t, we will be made obsolete by the tidal wave of automation and technology-fuelled transformation that is almost upon us...,” he added.
