Few service industries are designed to be 24x7 in India, and thus there was no 24x7 mentality.

But the real focus should be on people who are buying today because the base is so big it will take a long time for any change materialize on an overall basis.

I'm very comfortable in having a strong team. I'm very comfortable in sharing the limelight with the team.

It didn't make a lot of sense for us to be doing Lotus Notes implementations.

Clearly, every company needs a leader. That's an important part of being the CEO of the company.

I have a high degree of confidence about India's growth potential in IT.

We have believed at CA that consolidation of this industry is something that was required ten years ago.

Today we're focused on small acquisitions to add technology where necessary. I think it's fair to say we're not out looking for a large one, but I think it's also very fair to say that as a public company you can never say never.

There are companies that are cutting their costs by over 50% by offshoring.

As I said before, a big part of my strategy says - and the management team I think is in agreement with this - we don't have to be out there with a lot of noise all the time. What we need to do is paint a vision for customers, promise them deliverables, and go hit at it.

Few service industries are designed to be 24x7 in India, and thus there was no 24x7 mentality.

Failure is unfortunately as common as success.

So in 2000, when we changed the business model and started really focusing on that triangle and putting the customer in the center, we decided we should hold off - we've done enough consolidation; we've got enough critical mass.

That's a very critical phase in customer service because you can start to really understand what part of customer service has value to customers and what part is bothering customers.

And I'm comfortable being who I am, so I think a lot of people who take over from a founder worry about how they compare to the founder; I worry about doing the best I can.

To me, it's really important to drive change through a team because one person, while the buck has to stop with somebody, the company is just too big for one person.

So if you're a customer today, the same person who came in to demonstrate the technology for you and helped you architect the solution before you bought it is likely going to be leading the team to help you do the implementation.

Finance is critical. If sufficient investment is made in infrastructure and venture capital is made available, there will be a big improvement in the situation.

One, we committed to put about 650 people in the field to focus totally on customer satisfaction.

India has the unique advantages of having the biggest domestic market and this should support IT companies.

So far, Indian companies have focused more on customer application. This needs to shift to packaged software for sectors such as banking and financial services.

Well, the security business has been growing. I think security is one of those areas where it's to some degree not linear but maybe exponential growth.

Finally, I have to say that the most surprising aspect has been the speed at which the folks in India adapt to Western practices. They learn fast, really, really fast.

Well, if you look back, in almost two and a half years, the biggest change probably was in late 2000 when we decided to totally change the CA business model.

So let's say you're using XYZ product and you want to do something very sophisticated. You subscribe to this thing, you hit a button, and a CA expert pops up in video.

Some story appears in some newspaper that says that somebody said X, Y, and Z, and a customer says, I don't understand what they're talking about - we're running that product, we've been using it for five years, what are they talking about?

Clients do not expect the infrastructure to be any less reliable just because the service is being delivered from an offshore location; thus, the uptime requirements justify the expense.

There is nothing in the company that is either above or below me, as far as I'm concerned.

I think that a lot of companies are still amazingly price sensitive.

We will announce a new offering, where you can get a CA expert on your PC live, via video, on a range of topics about a product.

So it's really for us about new products, because we have released a lot of new products.

I'm equally comfortable in getting out there and taking a stand when I have to take a stand.

Companies are starting to measure how effective their customer service is and trying to understand what they can do to improve the customer service process.

Finance is critical. If sufficient investment is made in infrastructure and venture capital is made available there will be a big improvement in the situation.

I can assure you, public service is a stimulating, proud and lively enterprise. It is not just a way of life, it is a way to live fully.

I'm working harder than ever now, and I'm putting on my pants the same as I always have. I just get up every day and try to do a little better than the day before, and that is to run a great restaurant with great food, great wine, and great service. That's my philosophy.

The Germans certainly - the intelligence service believed that there were WMD. It turns out that we were all wrong, probably in my judgment, and that is most disturbing.

My whole life was service to people and the Fatherland.

In the service of Caesar, everything is legitimate.

It is obvious that the greatest and most important service that is required of our agriculture under existing conditions is an enlarged production of the staple food crops.

Man can never be a woman's equal in the spirit of selfless service with which nature has endowed her.

As a personal beneficiary of the service that Amtrak provides and as someone who represents a congressional district that counts on safe, reliable rail service, I am a strong supporter of providing this vital industry the funding necessary to continue operations.

The Council of Islamic Affairs is doing a great service to the world by promoting a greater understanding in America of the rich heritage of the Islamic peoples and their hopes and aspirations for the future.

Maybe the answer to Selective Service is to start everyone off in the army and draft them for civilian life as needed.

Our nation owes a debt of gratitude to the 9/11 Commission members for their valuable service and important recommendations to improve homeland security.

Another differentiator is that Skype is free and simple to set up, and it costs us virtually nothing for a new user to join the Skype network, which is why we can offer the service for free.

Books can only reveal us to ourselves, and as often as they do us this service we lay them aside.

It only stands to reason that where there's sacrifice, there's someone collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there's service, there is someone being served. The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master.

I declare before you all that my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service and the service of our great imperial family to which we all belong.
