 Preface

Those who don't learn from history are condemned to repeat it, observed a great thinker. One may add, :those who don'tshare possible lessons from their own experiences, tend todo the same.

Few executives, till recently, chose to pen down their experiences, so that others may gain prospectively. Dr.Godbole is one of them.

Even among such writers, Godbole is unique. He is unique because, - the hall mark of his writing style is to give an Indian touch and couch Sanskritterms to makea point.

The book is autobiographical and still not autobiographical.Even the autobiographical part isabout events that are not 'self flattering’. Godbole reflectson the many events in his working life, rather than merely recording them. Itis introspective and also prompts the reader to introspect visavis their working environment.

Each chapter or adhyay, as Godbolecallsit, makes a lasting point..

Professionals —_willwelcome the pointers for being a thoughtful, reflecting executive, in today's environment.

I heartily commend this book.
