It was like a big joint family,taking care and looking out for one another. I still remember Sudha Gopalakrishna looking after my daughter Akshata with all care and love while Kumari Shibulal cooked for all of us. Murty made it very clear that it would either be me or him working at Infosys. Never the two of us together\u2026 I was involved with Infosys initially.<\/div>\n
Nandan Nilekani suggested I should be on the Board but Murty said he did not want a husband and wife team at Infosys. I was shocked since I had the relevant experience and technical qualifications. He said, Sudha if you want to work with Infosys, I will withdraw, happily. I was pained to know that I will not be involved in the company my husband was building and that I would have to give up a job that I am qualified to do and love doing.<\/div>\n
It took me a couple of days to grasp the reason behind Murty\u2019s request. I realized that to make Infosys a success one had to give one\u2019s 100 percent. One had to be focussed on it alone with no other distractions. If the two of us had to give 100 percent to Infosys then what would happen to our home and our children? One of us had to take care of our home while the other took care of Infosys.<\/div>\n
I opted to be a homemaker, after all Infosys was Murty\u2019s dream. It was a big sacrificebut it was one that had to be made. Even today, Murty says, Sudha, I stepped on your career to make mine. You are responsible for my success.<\/div>\n
Great, isn\u2019t it? \u2026. That\u2019s the Power of Love.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
