Detroit, MI (1888PressRelease)
May 27, 2009 - Renowned author Dr. Anil K. Gupta will address the Detroit business community at the Indus Entrepreneurs meeting on May 28, 2009 from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. at PI of Southfield, 28875 Franklin Street, Southfield, MI 48034.
The Ralph J. Tyser Professor of Strategy and Organization at the Smith School of Business, The University of Maryland, Professor Gupta is the author of over seventy papers and four books: The Quest for Global Dominance, Smart Globalization, Global Strategy and Organization (John Wiley, 2003), and co-author of the new book on Getting China and India Right.
He will present to TiE members and guests ideas from his new book, "Getting China and India Right”: Strategies for Leveraging the World's Fastest Growing Economies for Global Advantage - a strategic guide for multi-national corporations who are contemplating expanding into both China and India.
Gupta and Haiyan Wang interviewed managers in over 100 companies to discern effective strategies for operating in China and India, including labor, market branding, building technology and innovation hubs, and tapping multi-segment "mega-markets". They explain that many corporate leaders continue to view China and India from the narrow lens of just off-shoring and cost reduction, and focusing their marketing strategies on only top 5-10% of population. Companies must develop long-term strategies and leverage the unique strengths of the Dragons and Tigers for global advantage. In short, “Getting China and India Right” outlines the global consequences of their near simultaneous growth.
Dr. Gupta is recognized by Business Week as an Outstanding Faculty in its Guide to the Best B-Schools, inducted into the Academy of Management Journals’ Hall of Fame and ranked by Management International Review as one of the "Top 20 North American Superstars" for research in strategy and organization.
