Mahatma of Indian Business
by PV Rao on Aug 24, 2006 07:32 PM

is Mr. NaryanaMurthy. He has shown the world how a son of middleclass School teacher can not only make tons of money but share it with others. This is strange concept to Indian Business with Tatas and Birlas and Ambanis only throwing crumbs to their employees. Secondly he has run his business by standing up to corruption and politicians. This requires courage just like Mahatma had courage when he stood up against the British. Thirdly he has shown that its possible to be a nice guy and still be a winner. In today's world where every MBA is taught how to be aggressive, mean and cook books. Mr. Murthy has shown that if you stick to the path of TRUTH and DHarma you will succeed. This is the ETHICAL way of doing business.Yes Nice guys too can win and when they win its BIG. Fourthly, he is not handing down anything to his children. We have already seen in today's business, the consequences of handing down to children, though they may be educated in Stanford, Wharton etc., if they don't have values it means NOTHING. I can only say that it will be a very LONG time we will see a business leader like Mr. Murthy...Kudos Mahatma of Business. may your tribe increase.
