The book relates the work done by Prof. Shiba-who began his tryst with Indian manufacturing in 2004, when he travelled to India at the invitation of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII)-with top Indian management and engineering schools and CII to create the Visionary Leaders for Manufacturing (VLFM) programme, with support from the Japan International Cooperation Agency. Focusing on the principles of Breakthrough Management in the VLFM programme-including simple things like listening to the customer, anticipating and preparing for change and dealing with employees and the society at large-the book tells us about a manufacturing model that is more responsible and responsive, more evolved and ethical.
