It also makes an interesting and lucid illustration of the India centric Theory I Management development by Prof. Chaudhuri himself.
The book extensively employs winning experiences and illustrations of a myriad of success icons- from Mahatma Gandhi to Martin Luther King, from Mr. Honda to Fidel Castro, from Stevie Wonder to Sir Don Bradman. from Swami Vivekananda to Gautam Buddha. The section on Theory I Management draws liberal inspirations from the cultural nuances of India and the life experiences of Mahatma Gandhi and Lord Krishna in Mahabharata to develop principles of success for an India specific management model.
Adds Prof. Arindam, ”Inspite of having the best talent pool in the world, our organizations have not been doing well-One of the most significant reasons for the failure of Indian management has been our failure to develop an indigenous management style, which resolves around our cultural roots and upbringing. Theory I is an attempt to understand and define the indian worker just like the Japanese had tried to do with their theory z.
Just be passionate about what you think-is how Arindam Chaudhuri urges us to delve deeper and make headway into what the title of the book has in store for us. He also urges us to be the change agent. Finally, this inspirational book reminds us that-” Success does not come to you, you have to go to it.”
