Vital Role in Companies Like...

Since then, he has played a vital role in companies like AirTouch, Infospace, Accel-KKR Telecom, The Charles Schwab Corporation and Cisco, apart from his dubious Vodafone drill. Arun Sarin’s hold over boardroom politics will be considered nothing short of legendary. History would rarely see a CEO who could have smooth-talked his way into not being thrown out in the face of unbelievable losses; a relationship management model now taught in top B-schools. While management style & boardroom politics will be topmost on shareholders’ agenda for change of leadership, the fact is that investors need to raise more important issues like the need for change in strategy.

Lance Armstrong Finally choose...

It was as if the gods were smiling down on their chosen child. The ensuing scenes – of equal parts revelry and disbelief – at the Champs Elysees had to be seen to be believed. The rapturous reception that Lance received was well deserved, and even I was cock-ahoop with elation. Victorious in the most tortuous event known to man only 33 months after cancer surgery, who would say miracles don’t happen in real life?! Bearing testimony to the fortitude of the human spirit, Lance Armstrong finally chose to hang up his cycling boots in 2005 after racking up a stupefying 7 consecutive tour wins (something even the likes of the legendary Miguel Indurain or Eddy Merckx can’t match) at what is more aptly termed the Tour de Lance! From zero to real-life anguished hero, it’s been an eventful and unforgettable journey for Lance. Having ridden roughshod over all opponents (cancer included), Lance remains the most enduring paragon of hope and shining beacon of inspiration to those who clutch to the word ‘impossible’ in their dictionary…

...Out of History

So, the New World isn’t so new after all...!
Current day America is a cornucopia of plentiful bounteousness and a haven for anyone aspiring to reach for the heavens. Far and away, the most progressive country in the world, America too, however, has its dark underbelly. Post the cataclysm of 9/11 – to take a critical point of reference – its image has been sullied by the pugnacious predilections of a cantankerous Texan at the helm of affairs, and even American taxpayers are raising a furrowed brow over the temperamental transgressions of their armed forces. It can then be safe to assume that Americans have always played a prominent part in the composition of world history, as we know it to be. What if I were to proclaim perchance that I could actually rewrite American history itself?

A passage into the changing construals of Utopia’s ultimate illusionists…
We begin this section with a compellingly introspective look at the way the world should or would have been, had the fragments of history fallen its way. These worlds harbour a vision that might just yet be realised. So, do read on and prepare...

I stand here in the courtyard of Cephalus, in ancient Greece, transported in time to Plato’s Republic of 390 BC, witnessing Socrates’ discourse on that cardinal virtue so much in scarcity today, justice. He theorises justice to represent “working at that, which is naturally best suited,” and “to do one’s own business and not to be a busybody,” and presents the ideal concept of society, where the ruler creates fair norms, the warrior executes these laws, and the producer accepts them sans discord. Socrates exiles poetry, music and dramatics, for these pervert the land and proliferate corruption, that vice among vices.

The Real ‘Contagion’

What happened in Brazil in the late nineties is something the Brazilians can’t be held fully responsible for. The contagion was so severe that policy makers were forced to react in a way that left the country in the midst of a crisis. A series of events, ranging from the Mexican peso devaluation, the Asian financial crisis and the Russian debt default, made the emerging economies, a risky asset class in the portfolio of investors. Very soon, capital migrated out of Brazil and the government had to increase interest rates; an obligation which the country could never honour; and Brazil did a sovereign default.
