Have you ever wondered why the government is very often rebuked by the courts? What can be the influencing power of big businesses on the government of the day? How do the courts impact the businesses by their judgments? What can a small change in government policy do to the entire business environment of the country? Why contract enforcement still remains a sore point in India? How does the bureaucracy play a vital link between the political masters and businesspersons? What harm can a whimsical judge do to the legal environment and how can it dampen the morale of the people? Lawfully Yours focuses on the interplay between business, government and law. It is from the perspective of an observer interested primarily in doing business legally and ethically as profit-making ought to be incidental and not the sole goal of doing business. It reveals how and why the external forces of the government and the law impact a businessperson's decision-making. The subjects discussed include business, judiciary, legal system, politics, world trade and infrastructure. Devoid of technical jargon, it uses simple language to drive home important and interesting concepts and points for the reader.
This book discusses doing business and making profit on the right side of the law. It explores the role of aligning business and legal strategies, and using the law as a powerful tool in making businesses successful. In this unique book, the author draws on his experience teaching future business leaders at the IIM Ahmedabad for more than a decade. Numerous case studies from across the globe and involving top-notch companies are discussed from both the business leadership and legal perspective, with takeaways included at the end. Intended for senior managers who would prefer to have the law as their friend, philosopher and guide, the book offers analyses of judgments from various courts, but mainly from the Supreme Court of India and the US Supreme Court, and provides judicial finality on several issues commonly faced by business leaders. As such, it serves as a valuable reference guide for senior business managers aspiring to take on top leadership positions.
The book focuses on the different aspects of business in India required to be taken care of by any businessperson, especially a foreigner, willing to do business in India. India is known for “unity in diversity.” The country being a very old civilization, and of continental size with great diversity, often remains a mystery for most of the foreign investors and businesspersons who get very easily attracted to it because of the humongous market and its potential. The book goes deep into the various important aspects of business in India which essentially hold the key to success of a business venture. A good understanding of the political, economic, social, technological, environmental, and legal aspects (the PESTEL framework) of the business environment in the country holds a businessperson in good stead in comparison with others who have little or no idea of the big picture. The book discusses these aspects with pertinent examples to make understanding their interplay easy. Any person unfamiliar with India as a country will get a good idea of different aspects of the country through the PESTEL framework and will be able to understand the true meaning of unity in diversity. Also, it makes it possible for someone well versed with the system of business in India to appreciate the finer aspects. The book is divided into three modules. The first module provides an overview of business in India, scope and potential for growth, opportunities, and some good success stories. The second module goes into the details of the PESTEL framework and discusses each arm at length. The combined study of numerous factors, which has been divided into different heads for better understanding, brings out many stories giving a fantastic learning experience. A closer look at how things are changing and what can be anticipated arguably is the most important part of the book, providing pointers to remain connected with day-to-day happenings. The third module goes into the practical aspects of doing business and deals with investment, establishing and running a business in India. Altogether, the book is a complete package to facilitate ease of business in the country and will be of interest to practitioners, policy makers and researchers working in this field.
Leadership qualities are best demonstrated under tough conditions. Negotiating during bad times to get the desired outcome is the real mark of an astute leader. Motives and emotions can play a major role in making one a leader who can negotiate with others to arrive at a mutually acceptable win-win situation. The Power of Negotiation explores the subject mainly from a possibility thinker's perspective. It elaborates on the art and science of negotiation, underlining the importance of possibility thinking for leaders to negotiate effectively. It demonstrates how possibility thinking can often make the parties agree to something which otherwise is supposed to be impossible. The book is a valuable handbook for senior business executives who spend most of their time meeting people, negotiating deals and resolving conflicts.
Business and Intellectual Property reflects on the future of IP in the age of new media and shows how—in a rapidly changing business field—managers and decision-makers need to be more perceptive, agile and vigilant than ever before. Drawing on contemporary business affairs and strategies, it explores the nature and scope of IP and the evolution of national laws and global agreements like the TRIPs to protect it. It also explores the measures (the use of patents, copyrights and trademarks) used by some of the biggest brands—Coke, MGM, 20th Century Fox, Microsoft, Harrods, Maruti, Tata—to manage disputes and protect themselves.
This book discusses the proper use of legal language in business communication. While communicating, a business leader has to bear in mind the relevant legal framework, and be sure to never violate it. However, legal language in itself can be so complex and difficult that it is often unclear as to what meaning can be ascribed to different words and phrases used in a particular context. Also, while it’s easy to say that there are certain limits to the law, those limits are not readily visible to the uninitiated; occasionally, even experts flounder. Exploring precisely these topics, the book will be of interest to students of business, law, and business communication; managers; lawyers; researchers; practitioners; and general readers alike.

At the end of the corridor was the ICU. Crashing through its swinging doors, I stood still for a while. Hands on my knees, I waited to catch my breath. As I straightened up, I felt a chill run up my spine. I hoped it was simply because of the hyper–cooled AC of the ICU and not an omen of things to come…. Come, let's hide in here, tucked away quietly in the middle of a doctors' mind, and watch from up close, the heavy traffic of tiny, short-lived electrical action potentials crashing into the consciousness and changing into long-lasting memories and life-changing philosophies. For that is where this book will take you – right into a doctor’s mind. And watch Death from up close. And admire the pristine innocence of a child, the pride of the poor and the phoenix of Man rise from the ashes of defeat. And watch Life from up close. And marvel at its intricate alignments and infinite hope. Witness from up close the gladiatorial battle between raw human emotion and cold clinical logic. Hold on tight as the pendulum swings from death to life, from defeat to victory, from despair to joy. Come, let's watch a Bipolar Life and the many short stories that make it.
