Teachers & students of management, executives & entrepreneurs, consultants & analysts should find the book very handy, as it focuses on the ‘managerial challenges, complexities & perceptions’ in a direct but concise manner. Each case can be discussed & understood in much less time, so that the ‘learning process’ is faster.

The variety is large. There are cases in financial management, strategic management, purchase & marketing management, organisational dynamics, wage & human resource management, general management, strategic cost management & project management.
The authors have been teaching, analysing & improvising these cases for last eighteen years. The cases have been tested in regular class-room sessions, seminars, workshops & also in brain storms.
