Competing with the Best offers the blueprint of being a successful corporation, in India and elsewhere. It remarkably brings together the research and practice of management—that have drifted far apart—and outlines the viable strategies and organization designs for corporations, and the ways of configuring them for success. These have proven effective in a variety of contexts, including for most of the cases in the book, by standing the test of time for well over a decade. The book remains a world-class work on strategic management from India and makes up for the lull globally in breakthrough thinking in this area since the 1990s. It will be an indispensable resource for senior executives, researchers and students alike.
