When we discuss “business books”, we often refer to non-fictional works. However, if you’re looking to learn more about leadership, entrepreneurship, or career development, there is no reason to limit your browsing to one particular genre. Some of the most memorable and inspiring lessons on business topics actually originate from fiction. Notion Press, India’s leading self-publication platform, presents The Growth Company by Mansingh Gadhvi.
Think tales of an unsuccessful consultant who goes around the world to pitch his product or an aspiring journalist who reports to a tyrannical editor. Irrespective of your profession or passion, these stories will keep you entertained while teaching you a lesson or two about the corporate world. Through The Growth Company, Mansingh Gadhvi spins an engaging tale that follows the story of Vikram Singh, the Chairman and Managing Director of CSG, as he experiences financial turmoil set against the backdrop of a slowing economy, challenging business environment with a cut-throat competition that makes business life impossible for most entrepreneurs. Often referred to as the Growth Guru, Growth Maverick, and even, the Growth Hacker by the business community, Singh runs a diversified company with a market capitalization of approximately USD 210 Billion along with other philanthropic activities across the globe in areas of education, health and environment. However, with great power comes great responsibilities. It was never a bed of roses for Singh as the Chairman of the CS Group.
The Growth Company takes a reader through the ups and downs that the company had faced. However, through it all, CSG emerged to establish itself in the sector to be known as The Growth Company with a phenomenal growth run for over 20 years. However, the book chooses to focus on the time when the company first suffered a negative growth year after Singh took over the reins. With the whole country crumbling into a painfully slow growth phase, Singh was pressurized by shareholders and investors to avoid negative growth and to get the company back on track. With the morale of the employees down the drain and the leadership team clueless, Singh was at his lowest ever. This is when he stumbles upon a rare piece of timeless wisdom that changes his life as a leader, and subsequently, the fate of his company forever.
It was in his ancestral royal palace where Singh first discovers 17 Commandments of growing his business successfully. Created and abandoned by his ancestors, these Commandments were essentially used to run a huge thriving kingdom spread across the Western part of India for centuries. Singh realizes that these commandments were true then, true for the times we live in and it would remain true and relevant for times to come. Any business that functions on these Commandments would grow its business faster. The Growth Company captures the journey of how Singh discovered these timeless 17 Commandments of running the business and post its discovery, how his leadership team and himself went about applying these Commandments that eventually helped them progress faster.
