Corporate India's revolving doors have swung open with a raft of recent resignations and departures involving some of the most recognisable CEO faces. The high-profile exits even include new-age tech and digital disruptors like Meta, as well as some of the most storied business houses like Tata, Godrej, Kotak, HDFC Bank and IndiGo.
Some of these transitions have been cordial, thought through and orderly handovers. The warring, controversial and morale-sapping ones, though, are undermining some of the trusted brands, managerial bench strength and governance gold standards. Conglomerates that have been cash spigots, or capillaries of growth, are fast getting entangled in trouble spots.
