Abhishek Kumar from Radio Mirchi writes

Hi ! Abhijit,Read yr book, thoroughly enjoyed it !!! It took me through a range of emotions. Infact, the other day I was telling one of friends that this book is so relatble that even if someone called “Abhishekatoo sitting in Timbaktoo” reads this book he will be able to relate to it. I guess that`s wat is so beautiful about your book. It transcends all geographical, cultural, social & economic barriers.Having read the book felt me scoring 2/10 in QT during my MBA was’nt that bad (just joking) !!!What really made me think was the last page wherein protagonist reads the letter given by Prof.Hathaway. All this while I wondered if an MBA made any difference to my career (read as life) . After reading the last page I realize that the impact does not really have to be very apparent, it can be at a subliminal level as well !!!I HV BEEN TRYING TO WRITE THIS SINCE BEGINING, BUT WAS A LITTLE APPREHENSIVE. THINK MUST WRITE IT NOW. Why do’nt you plan a sequel to this book called “Shallow But Aggressive”. A book which will delve on:-

1) What happened to Abbey when he enters Shallow but Aggressive world called as corporate. What are his initial experiences ?

2) What are Abbey`s feelings when he finds Ayeshas all around him. Does his longing for Priyas increase ?

3) How does Abbey deals with not one but hundreds of Ghopher around him?

4) Does he want another Rusty to come & help him or he grows up to become Rusty or may be better

5) Very important, did Keya come to Delhi ? Did she meet Abbey? Her side of story etc ????

6) Does he get amused to see shallowness all around him ?

Guess, there are so many more questions which can be addressed. Please, do not think of me as a cynic or someone who is against this corporate world or culture. Was jus thinking that there is’nt any book which deals with the human side of corporate world. This book can be very funny & emotional & for few a guide to learn & adjust to the norms of this “Shallow but Aggressive” world

Book Review: The Tyranny of Metrics

What gets measured is not the same as what matters, and rewarding the measure corrupts it. Not everything that counts can be counted. Extrinsic reward for measured performance crowds out the intrinsic motivation that made people good at the work in the first place
