Management gurus like Michael Porter, Peter Drucker and other worthy practitioners have attained cult status. Their pithy phrases are repeated across the globe from Business Schools to board rooms as universal truths. But do these management truisms always hold good everywhere? Or are they myths that need to be examined for relevance in today's rapidly changing world? In Busted, industry leader Ashok Soota and management consultant Peter de Jager cast fresh light and prompt a rethinking of received wisdom. They focus on seventeen commonly accepted management principles and crisply examine the reasons why these can't be accepted as universal truths. Backed by the authors' wealth of experience in building, scaling, and consulting with organisations across sectors, cultures, and continents, Busted incorporates real-life examples and first-person interviews with industry leaders and practitioners, inspiring readers to question, test, and validate all advice regardless of the source.
The TTK Group was founded in 1928 in Chennai (then Madras) by T.T. Krishnamachari, who later became a Union minister and held the portfolios of finance, industry and commerce for close to fifteen years. In this book, the current chairman T.T. Jagannathan, along with Sandhya Mendonca, takes us through the journey of this extraordinary company which fought off bankruptcy and rose like a phoenix to become a highly profitable, successful entity. What makes this story all the more startling is that T.T. Jagannathan is an accidental and reluctant businessman. He came into the profession very unexpectedly, and without any preparation, with neither an MBA nor having ever worked in the family business before having its very survival entrusted to him. Like a phoenix, the Group and its constituent companies, have risen from the ashes, many times over, to stand tall and proud. This is the story of a journey that began with early success and experienced catastrophic disasters, and set about turning its fortunes around in stunning comebacks, time and again. With invaluable business lessons, decades of experience and innovation distilled in these pages, Disrupt and Conquer is a must-read for aspiring entrepreneurs, executives and business leaders.
