What do you do if you take a break from running India’s most admired company? Naturally, you move base to yet another blue chip.

On Thursday evening, six executive directors of Infosys will step into the offices of The Economic Times in Bangalore as guest editors for a day. The man heading the ET newsroom is none other than their chairman, NR Narayana Murthy, editor-in-chief.

The dapper Nandan Nilekani, CEO, is editor, Business Of Brands. COO Kris Gopalakrishnan takes charge of Emerging Business & IT; K Dinesh will play the lead in our section The Political Theatre; SD Shibulal will handle International and ET Backpage; HR chief TV Mohandas Pai will showcase his dual prowess, chairing sections on Career & Business Life and Finance; and Srinath Batni will lead the ET team for Economy, Finance & Markets.

It took weeks of planning and a visit to the Infosys campus on a Sunday to get Murthy to chair a preliminary news meeting with the ET Bangalore team. Murthy decided on the theme of the issue — The Power Of Execution — and finalised the list of columnists.

He’s been on e-mail ever since, sounding out editors on ideas, while making sure his jet-setting colleagues make it to ET on Thursday. Naturally, for team ET to match the intellectual and creative vigour of the top guns of Infy will be a challenge, something we all look forward to.
