Late Mr. N. Vaghul
Former Chairman,
ICICI Bank Ltd.
“For the last three years I had been assiduously following the quarterly results of ICICI Bank and quarter after quarter they seem to have been accomplishing what I once believed impossible. Whenever I had an opportunity to meet Sandeep I used to ask him what really was the factor behind this transformation. He always replied in his characteristic humility that the teamwork is responsible for the transformation and he personally had nothing to do with it. More out of curiosity I looked at a superficial level for reasons for the change in the iconic book Good to Great. But that did not satisfy me. Your book, which I read with considerable interest provided answers to many of my questions.
This is an excellent book and could be placed on par with Good to Great in understanding corporate transformation. Easy to read, (particularly with bold types) it fully reflects the thought process and the hard work that you have put in to making this book a truly enjoyable reading experience.
Your comparison of ICICI with Tata group is very apt but more interesting was the comparison with your personal experiences. Your narration of how you modified the meditation practices to meet your specific experience was quite interesting.
I warmly congratulate you on bringing out this book and am happy to convey to you and your family my best wishes.”
