The Story of an Indian CEO


IIPM, GURGAON

“It’s quite controversial to comment on how Indians are getting success in terms of moving up the corporate ladder, leading global corporations and even universities!” When 4Ps B&M talked exclusively to Dr. Srikant Datar, Professor of Accounting at Harvard Business School (HBS) on July31, 2007, his statements gave away the trepidation hidden within; as he is one of the top contenders to the most coveted post of Dean, HBS; and he is, of course, an Indian!

Still, ‘controversial’?!? One never thought that discussions about India Inc. growingly becoming a breeding ground for spawning global CEOs were ‘controversial’! But truthfully, are Indian CEOs competent enough to undertake the responsibility of heading multinational corporations? Obviously we’ve heard ad nauseam oft quoted examples of people like Indra Nooyi, Arun Sarin, Rajat Gupta and Lakshmi Mittal, but does the Indian top management fraternity comprise any more than just a handful exemplars of benchmark world-class leadership?
