Monograph and Other Reports
The intersection of capital markets, corporate governance, and sustainable development has, over three decades, given rise to a transformative shift in management practice: the systematic disclosure and evaluation of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance. Once confined to niche ethical investment circles, ESG reporting has evolved into a mainstream imperative, shaping investment decisions, regulatory frameworks, and stakeholder expectations across both developed and emerging economies. Today, ESG performance is no longer an addendum to financial reporting but a substantive dimension of enterprise value and long-term organisational legitimacy. India’s ESG reporting journey reflects a trajectory of incremental but decisive policy evolution. The …
Blending Business And It Strategy : A Conceptual Model, R Ramaswamy
Blending Business And It Strategy : A Conceptual Model, R Ramaswamy
IIMB Management Review
In this new age of the knowledge-based economy, the search for a more dynamic and sustainable competitive advantage has led to many organisations investing substantially in IT–based tools and solutions. But in most cases these investments have not been justified by the returns. The main reason for this is the disjointed manner of framing business and IT strategies leading to the segregation of the people, process, and technology aspects of management. Moreover, the benefits are marginal if carried out over existing strategies, structures, and processes. To derive the real benefits of investments in IT and paradigms of transformation in the …

Competitiveness : Perceptions, Reflections And Directions, D K Banwet, Kirankumar Momaya, Himanshu Kumar Shee
IIMB Management Review
Competitiveness has gained importance as a subject of study during the last decade or so. The initial stimulus came during the eighties when the US experienced an economic decline. As American firms started losing ground all over the world in significantly important industries such as automobile, shipbuilding, electronics and steel, researchers began focussing attention on country and industry level competitiveness. Given India’s low and declining ranking in the Global Competitiveness Report and the World Competitiveness Yearbook, it is imperative that academics, industrialists and policy makers make a serious study of the factors that drive competitiveness at all levels, and take …
Indian Steel Industry At The Crossroads : A Strategic Perspective, Gautam Sinha, Satyajit Jena
Indian Steel Industry At The Crossroads : A Strategic Perspective, Gautam Sinha, Satyajit Jena
IIMB Management Review
In the post liberalisation era, the Indian steel industry is passing through an intensely turbulent transformation, belying the rosy forecasts of the early 90s. The international recession in steel is expected to persist for at least two more years, along with competition of a high order, posing a serious threat to the Indian steel industry. Gautam Sinha and Satyajit Jena attempt to link the intrinsic and extrinsic forces operating on the Indian steel industry in order to gain a holistic understanding of it. Using performance indices such as Debt-Equity Ratio, Return on Networth, Net Sales/ Total Assets and Net Profit/ …

Corporate Philanthropy As Business Strategy : An Indian Perspective, Laxman Mohanty, Neharika Vohra
IIMB Management Review
An article in an Indian national daily some time ago indicated that the HRD Ministry of the Government of India had approached the private sector for funds to build a National Education Fund for elementary education programmes. News items such as these raise a number of questions: Why should corporations pay for what the government is supposed to handle? Is a request for funding social projects a unique situation or a commonly occurring event? Are corporations expected to bear the cost of social infrastructure?
R&D Management : Issues And Challenges, Shikha Suman
R&D Management : Issues And Challenges, Shikha Suman
IIMB Management Review
Before the 60s, there was neither literature nor explicit focus on R&D management. The ‘linear model of innovation’1 prevailed, both in the public and the private sector. It was believed that investments in R&D eventually would pay off when research-based products and processes reached production and/or the market. R&D units of companies were generally left to themselves, managed by the unit’s most distinguished scientists. They set their goals and their priorities based largely on scientific criteria alone, albeit within the frames of the company’s current operations and future strategies.

Success Parameters For Technology Companies In The It Arena - An Indian Perspective, M Chandrasekaran
Success Parameters For Technology Companies In The It Arena - An Indian Perspective, M Chandrasekaran
IIMB Management Review
The very word ‘technology’ in the context of the IT industry conjures up visions of radically different products that are made possible by esoteric and futuristic technology implemented through pure hardware or pure software or increasingly hardware/ software combinations. It is also clear that the evolutionary change to increasingly software intensive solutions is here to stay. In the context of this article, ‘technology companies’ will refer only to companies that are pure software or software / hardware plays that operate in the area of emerging technologies. Such companies will typically develop Intellectual Property( IP), license this IP, and use it …

Ten Commandments For Organisational Renaissance, Pritam Singh, Asha Bhandarker
IIMB Management Review
With the world on the brink of developments that are transforming the way people transact business, the time is appropriate for reflection on many fundamental issues that Indian organisations have to deal with in the next couple of de-cades. Increasingly, countries in the developed world are acknowledging Indian software talent, the pool of engineering and R&D skills. In fact, a World Bank re-port in the mid-90s predicted that India was poised to become an economic superpower. However, unless sustained, strategic and collective efforts are made, and Indian companies reinvent them-selves to prepare for the new challenges, India will miss out …

Consulting Demons : Inside The Unscrupulotls World Of Global Corporate Consulting By Lewis Pinault, New York, Harper Business, 2000, Price : $26; Rs 940., Rishikesha T Krishnan
IIMB Management Review
This irreverent and perhaps slightly exaggerated account of the world of global consulting has behind it some sharp insights into a highly sought-after industry. Having worked in a range of consulting firms - from the strategy- and idea-driven Boston Consulting Group (BCG) to the more conservative and thorough Coopers & Lybrand (now Price Waterhouse Coopers) -Lewis Pinault has a range of experiences to offer and he does so in an engaging and easy-to-read manner. The book reads like a thriller, but every chapter ends with a section titled ' consulting demonology in which the author distil the learnings from his …
Business Strategies In Transition Economies By M W Peng, Internationa L Business Series, Sage, 2000, Pp 322, Price: $29.95., D Sampath
IIMB Management Review
Most theories on strategy have originated from the western world, which presupposes the existence of a certain type of institutional support existing in the economy. The "core competence" of Prahl ad and Hammel, Porter's vision of competitive dynamics, and Krishna Palepu's theory on non-applicability of focussed strategies for emerging economies have unfortunately been regarded as globally applicable by academics and practitioners alike. Culture specificity of a nation, which may be under transition, and the need to reorient the strategies with culture as one of the key variables has either been ignored or scoffed at. However, it is becoming increasingly clear …

Crafting The Strategy: Concepts And Cases In Sategic Management By Ranjan Das, New Delhi: Tata Mcgraw Hill, 2000., S D Kshirsagar
IIMB Management Review
This quotation summarises aptly the dichotomy of approaches to strategy as an encompassing concept and to its implementation in a business. If strategy is a science in all its facets, its descriptive or normative theories could be applied to a business situation. Seminal contributions in this respect made by H Igor Ansoff, Kenneth R Andrews and others, established that ‘sustained performance’ is determined by a firm’s ability to find a fit among its intrinsic capabilities, the environmental factors, and the strategy it adopts. In this sense, strategy is not only contextual but also resource specific. It is, therefore, dynamic and …

Economics And Strategic Management: Bridging The Divide, Rakesh Singh
Economics And Strategic Management: Bridging The Divide, Rakesh Singh
IIMB Management Review
There has always been a great divide between economic theory and management theory. On the one hand, most business schools put basic economics on their curriculum and insist on compulsory courses in the subject. On the other hand, management theorists have found economics too abstract to be useful. Economists have always tried to run clown the case study approach as lacking in rigour and have criticized management's approach of generality.

Corporate Strategies: A Comprehensive Handbook Based On Indian Experience: By Bani P Banerjee, New Delhi: Oxford University Press, 1998., K R S Murthy
IIMB Management Review
These are two very different, but complementary, books on strategy. Strategy is a term used widely with different meanings and in different contexts. It is often also used with various prefixes and suffixes, as in these two books. The basic notion of strategy underlying the two books, and therefore their approaches, differ, and it is important to understand the bias of the authors to be able to use the books properly.
