Question #1
As Kapoor directs heavy investment into AI which compresses margins, what is his process for balancing bold, strategic bets against the disciplined execution required to avoid another costly failure like the Health Integrated acquisition?
Question #2
Will Kapoor’s visionary strategy for the AI pivot be undermined by a historical weakness in integrating complex acquisitions and bringing the existing workforce along with his vision?
Question #3
As EXL competes for elite AI talent, can Kapoor evolve his leadership style to foster the necessary innovative culture, or will the reputational risks from his past conduct hinder their ability to attract and retain the people needed to win?
