The founder of information technology company Infosys, Narayana Murthy, will appear on CNN's chat show Talk Asia. The show airs on 23 August at 7 pm with repeats on 24 August at 8 am, 25 August at the same time and on 26 August at 6 pm.

In the half hour interview with host Lorraine Hahn, Murthy talks about his youth, his success in business leadership and his vision for Infosys. Recipient of many business awards, he was most recently named as Fortune's Businessmen of the Year together with his chief executive, Nandan Nilenkani.

When asked about the Infosys Leadership Centre and his thoughts on leadership, Murthy responds saying, "Leadership is all about courage. Leadership is all about raising aspirations. Leadership is all about convictions, about value system. Leadership is all about meritocracy. I would say these are the fundamental principles that we discuss and debate (at Infosys Leadership Centre). It's mostly interactive and we use a lot of anecdotes from our own lives, from our own experiences. And then people are quite welcome to challenge those beliefs."

On his retirement plans, Murthy says, "I still have another three years and a half or so, I hope I'll spend it in a productive manner. Maybe I'll teach somewhere, either in a school, or some management subject in business school. Ideally I would like to teach mathematics, and physics, or perhaps computer science, to school children."
