How to Be Bold
by Ranjay Gulati
"Ranjay Gulati is a good friend, but heâs also someone whose advice I value immensely.
Even as a Professor of Business at HBS, his sensibility reaches far beyond management; it embraces the full breadth of human experience.
Ranjayâs new book How to Be Bold is a reminder that in todayâs whiplash world, caution has an expiry date.
His framework shows that the phrase: âfortune favours the boldâ isnât just a motto, itâs methodology.
A must-read for anyone charting their own course through today's uncertaintyâŚ

"Indiaâs ability to rise and deliver on its immense potential will require the nation to fly, not just metaphorically, but literally as well.
âAbove and Beyondâ offers a fascinating guide to this important industry that is a critical enabler for India to soar to new heightsâŚ"
