Do you think that there is something called the Indian management style that describes the way Indian companies do business? We have, of course, heard of the Japanese management style and the American way. Indian?? Indian companies are becoming successful not just in India but also on the global stage. Indian managers are gaining international recognition. Indigenous management techniques are being adopted by companies all over the world. Yet, we still haven’t seen the Indian management style being talked about or taught. Isn’t it? The wait is over. In this pioneering book–What They Don’t Teach You About Indian Management Style, Anand Kumar R.S., a homegrown management professional with exposure to working in Indian and foreign companies, looks at the established Japanese and American styles of management and the style adopted by Indian businesses. While doing so, he brings into perspective the unique and not-so-unique features of the Indian management approach. Digging into his vast experience, Anand delves into aspects that define the management style in typical Indian companies-small and big. For academia, practising management professionals in India and abroad and those watching India, the book serves as a treatise on the Indian management style. This also gives a perspective of the Indian way of doing business to those from outside India wanting to do business in India.

In this landmark book, bestselling author, leadership coach and mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik shows how, despite its veneer of objectivity, modern management is rooted in Western beliefs and obsessed with accomplishing rigid objectives and increasing shareholder value. By contrast, the Indian way of doing business, as apparent in Indian mythology but no longer seen in practice accommodates subjectivity and diversity and offers an inclusive, more empathetic way of achieving success. Great value is placed on darshan, that is, on how we see the world and our relationship with Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth. Business Sutra uses stories, symbols and rituals drawn from Hindu, Jain and Buddhist mythology to understand a wide variety of business situations that range from running a successful tea stall to nurturing talent in a large multinational corporation. At the heart of the book is a compelling premise: if we believe that wealth needs to be chased, the workplace becomes a rana-bhoomi - a battleground of investors, regulators, employers, employees, vendors, competitors and customers, if we believe that wealth needs to be attracted, the workplace becomes a ranga-bhoomi - a playground where everyone is happy.

Regardless of whether we want to deal with the Chinese, integrate staff from India or work with various different regions in the same country, cultural habits are there to trip us up. Conventional thinking and lack of cultural intelligence constantly wreck masses of opportunities. And if you are one of those expats here in the Kingdom of Denmark, then you have bigger challenges than most. According to studies around a third of highly skilled people who move to Denmark get negatively surprised by the cultural differences. But that’s not very surprising. In the social sciences it’s nothing new that Denmark and the rest of Scandinavia are significantly culturally different from a lot of other places in the world. You can’t find a country with more trust, less religiousness, a greater emphasis on equality but also a significant tendency to social reclusiveness and much more. But why are they so different and how do you crack the code of Danish society? Dennis Nørmark has written an easy-to-read and practical book. With specific examples, funny anecdotes and thorough research, he gives us a solid tool for collaboration and co-existence. First and foremost about encounters with Danes, but he also gives examples from the whole world in this easy-to-read handbook about how we can take control of our most primitive instincts and turn cultural problems into opportunities. The book is also available in Danish.
