If you want to know how Alphabet Inc’s new chief executive officer Sundar Pichai will run the company you don’t need to look very far – he’s essentially been doing it for several years already.
Pichai, a 47-year-old engineer, grew up in India and immigrated to the US to attend graduate school. His resume reads like the typical Silicon Valley operator: a Master’s degree from Stanford University, an MBA from the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School and a stint as a consultant at McKinsey & Co.
