Summary

Saying No to Jugaad is a riveting account of how the start-up ecosystem in India evolved rapidly in the last 10 years. Ushering in a new turn in the country's economy that shook up existing ways of doing business, start-ups brought together investors and a rare breed of entrepreneurs to create a set of unicorns focused, for the first time, on solving the country's problems.  
  
The book busts some of the common myths around e-commerce businesses and describes the evolution of grocery as the mother of all categories in this sector. It also is the story of how start-ups go through different distinct stages as they evolve and mature. The courage needed to hold your ground when the world seems to have a contrarian view, the relentless focus on customer centricity and the emphasis on foundation-building are illustrated through lucid and stirring stories.  
  
Entertaining and anecdotal, the book is not a panegyric about the founders or the company but is the story of real people and a real company with real flaws but also several great ideas and moments. Saying No to Jugaad vividly captures the vision, culture and commitment to values which has made Bigbasket one of India's most successful start-ups.
Available since: 10/17/2020.

    Management By Processes In Practice

    A book written for those who really practice business process management. 
    This book was born of an internal corporate training, in which I presented the designed infographic that illustrates the cover page...repeatedly through several years. 
    Participating in other trainings, audits and events, I came to consider that some of my peculiar approaches could always be seen as great nonsense or as a solid experience and its many scars...always being to the taste or criticism of the public. 
    I was careful to name each chapter as a question that someone has already asked me or that I believe I might be asked, and, then, I hope I have been able to put myself in the seated place of the audience rather than on the lightned stage.
