Subroto has one important message for the current generation about to start their careers - do not overplan. As Rabbi Sherre Hirsch says "We Plan, God laughs". God does laugh even at Subroto every now and then, and to overcome this he shows how a heads down approach has worked very well for him, and should work for most of us too.One flaw in the book from my perspective is that even Subroto falls prey to presenting his DCM experience with a senior manager as a "I'm right, and he was wrong" view. Similarly with his last conversation in WIPRO with Azim Premji. Humility? Errrrr...
One must read this book.it really motivates the young blood 2 stand still in adverse condition and to give more respect to our subordinates than superiors.the feeling after reading this book is really unexpliclable.
Subroto Bagchi shares his life and learning - at various stages - in a candid and forthright manner. The practical insights are deep and enable the reader to relate them to his/her situational context. A must read for all ages - not just the young professional, as today's organisational setting is in a huge state of flux.
