    Back to basics
The Mahabharata and the Gita could soon be an inspiration for many managers and businessmen. Professor Arindam Chaudhuri, dean of Indian Institute of Planning & Management (IIPM), Delhi, has picked up threads from these two epics and built the ‘Leadership Success Multiplier’ model of his ‘I’ Management (India-specific management) theory (which he has so far been teaching to corporate managers and CEOs through management consultancy workshops) to pen it down in his forthcoming book, Count Your Chickens Before They Hatch.

Wide breadth, but no depth
THE state of awareness about the World Trade Organisation (WTO) among Indian business, even six years after the organisation came into being, and years since India began implementing various Uruguay Round agreements, is truly alarming. Even up to two or three years ago, the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) was still putting out booklets titled ‘What is the WTO?’ For God’s sake! An entire industry which claims to feel severely threatened by the organisation and which, at the very least, owes the loss of effectiveness of much of its domestic lobbying with government to it, can surely do better.
