The leadership read
A change at the top rarely stays at the top. Delhivery's move reshapes the layer beneath it in the sector as a new leader sets priorities and the team re-forms. Watch the first two or three appointments that follow; they signal direction more reliably than any statement.
Market context: Backdrop: a 103.7 (Hot) Talent Market Index (down 1.8 on the month) with Asia activity steady (-1pts).
Delhivery: 1 signal in the last 90 days; 0.1% of MitchelLake's Asia signal flow.
