Review of 'Business Sutra : A Very Indian Approach to Management' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
One of the concepts is that because India has (many!) different belief systems and operates differently, it must be wrong and therefore change. I hadn’t ever realized how dominant the thought is that the west favors science and logic, and therefore must always be right – and therefore everything else must be wrong.
If you’re looking for insights into the roots of western, Chinese, and Indian beliefs and how those impact day-to-day thought at a high level, the first section of the book is wonderful.
If you’d like to take a detailed look at how Indian beliefs impact day-to-day behavior, the latter part of this book would be interesting. It ties into mythology, translates that into behaviors, and often includes practical, business-related examples.
