UNTOLD STORIES is a collection of real-life stories, of the MBA class of 1987, from the haloed IIM Ahmedabad, India’s best business school. This batch has seen much success – and the career trajectories of some of its famous alumni have been well-chronicled in the news and business media.
But what of the rest, who have rich, fascinating stories waiting to be told? They remained unshared, untold, until now! A batch reunion at Jaipur in 2024 and the numerous fireside chats there kindled the spark for this book.
Here are 9 stories directly from the horses’ mouth – narrated by 4 alums from the same batch- Jaya Murthy, PS Srinivas, Richa Arora and Sanjeev Kotnala.
Tales to remind you, dear readers, that behind the corporate titles and business accolades lie people who, just like you, have experienced life’s many trials & tribulations yet navigated the tides of life with their unique brand of courage and shared human experiences.
“Untold Stories is an invitation. Not to admire professional achievements but to recognize shared human vulnerability. Not to worship success, but to understand the beautiful randomness of our journeys.”- Santosh Desai, author, advertising and brand guru.
“Read it. Get inspired. And you’ll soon be asking others – and yourself- “What’s your story?”- Prakash Iyer, class of 1986 IIMA, author, Motivational speaker, and leadership coach.
