I was having a conversation with a colleague where I am visiting faculty. We were discussing cross cultural management and reviewing some of the case studies we use on the programme. I was keen on using examples of Indian owned companies that have globalised. My colleague asked for rationale, I gave 3.
- From being an emerging economy, it is now the fastest growing emerging economy.
- India is the second home for many MNCs, and these are now a strategic value add and the old stereotype of 'back office' is declining.
- Talent migration is much more fluid, senior Executives from India are now holding prime roles across the globe.

- How to demystify the stereotypes people have & to accelerate growth?
- Can India change at the pace required?
- What are the golden nuggets that are enticing for businesses to believe in the 'make in India brand?'
