EVERY MOTHER IS A CEO : MANAGEMENT LESSONS FROM MY MOTHER

Homemaker-CEOs can teach MBAs, corporate managers and businesses

much more than you ever imagined.

Doesn't managing a home's finances, nurturing the family's nutritional and

emotional needs and planning the workflow of everyday activities of different

family members count as management?

Every Mother Is a CEO answers these questions and more. In a breezy,

conversational style, the author Dhanjit Vadra-Managing Director, Allen &

Alvan Pvt. Ltd and CEO, Allen & Alvan Defence & Aerospace-recounts the

ways in which his mother Urmil Vadra worked tirelessly towards managing

a large household, raising a family and assisting his father build a hardware

manufacturing empire from scratch.

Through her common-sense management techniques, knack for organizational

efficiency and most of all, compassion for family and staff, she not only

brought up extremely successful and well-settled children, but also created

a team of dedicated personnel to look after both family and business. In

achieving all this and more, she proves yet again how homemakers are

caregivers, supervisors of finances and inventory, educators and HR managers.

In fact, they are anchors of the whole family unit and the wheel that makes

everything run.

Filled with anecdotes, tips, inspiring stories of business pioneers like Ford and

Godrej, and common business scenarios, this is a riveting and informative

read for managers, employees and students alike. It opens our eyes to the

often overlooked, vital management skills of homemakers.
