Dear Colleague:
I am delighted to share with you some information about my just-released
book on one of today's most important topics for companies:
Anil K. Gupta & Haiyan Wang, GETTING CHINA AND INDIA RIGHT:Leveraging the
World's Fastest-Growing Economies for Global Advantage.
Jossey-Bass/Wiley, February 2009;
http://gettingchinaandindiaright.com/
Jeffrey Garten (Juan Trippe Professor and Former Dean, Yale School of
Management) captures the book's essence well in his jacket cover
endorsement: “At a time when China and India present enormous opportunities
and equally considerable risks, no global CEO, nor any of his or her senior
colleagues, can afford not to read this timely and insightful book. What
makes this book particularly compelling and valuable is that it not only
leverages the authors' insider perspective on China and India but also
brings cutting edge ideas on global strategy to examine how the China-India
phenomenon must reshape corporate strategies." Echoing these views, Graham
Mackay, CEO, SABMiller plc, calls this book "a real tour de force."
Some of the other business leaders who have endorsed this book include
Ratan Tata (Chairman, Tata Group), Narayana Murthy (Chairman, Infosys),
Ronnie Chan (Chairman, Hang Lung Group), Bill Hickey (CEO, Sealed Air),
Edgar Hotard (Chairman, Monitor Group China), Ming Zeng (Chief Strategy
Officer, Alibaba Group), Mark Penn (CEO, Burson Marsteller), Wim Elfrink
(EVP & Chief Globalization Officer, Cisco), Ed Fuller (President, Marriott
Lodging-International), Ravi Venkatesan (Chairman, Microsoft India), Harsh
Manglink (Chairman, Accenture India), and Kyung Yoon (Vice-Chairman,
Heidrick & Struggles).
Getting China and India Right argues that each of these two emerging giants
represents four game-changing realities, all playing out simultaneously:
large and rapidly growing makets for almost every product or service,
plaforms for global cost reduction, platforms to boost a company's
intellectual capital, and springboards for the emergence of a new
generation of ambitious and highly capable global competitors. Based on
solid research as well as case studies, we dissect the anatomy of each of
these important realities and then lay out in concrete terms the strategic
implications of these developments. We also discuss reasons why the future
of the global enterprise requires thinking in terms of China and India, not
China or India.
I hope that you'll enjoy reading this book - available at Amazon.com,
800CEORead.com.
Best regards, Anil
