Book Summary
Driven: Memoirs Of A Civil is the compelling story of Jagdish Khattar, a man whose career spans civil service, corporate leadership, and entrepreneurship. This memoir blends governance, business strategy, and personal resilience into a narrative that speaks to readers who admire leadership, public service, and transformative change. It is written for adults and professionals curious about how vision and values translate into real-world impact, and its tone is inspiring, thoughtful, and uplifting.
In Driven: Memoirs Of A Civil, Khattar's journey unfolds from a trained lawyer and IAS officer to district magistrate in Uttar Pradesh, to guiding roles in global boards, to steering Maruti Udyog through turbulence and toward a landmark IPO, and finally founding Carnation, India's first multibrand car sales and servicing network. The book is written in a warm, candid voice and structured to illuminate leadership decisions, the friction of unions, competition, and political pressures, and the resilience required to innovate under pressure. It's not just a chronology; it's a collection of practical lessons on change management, stakeholder alignment, and values-driven leadership, told with frank anecdotes and a storyteller's pace.
After finishing Driven: Memoirs Of A Civil, readers will gain a clear sense of what it means to lead with purpose across public service and private enterprise, how to navigate complexity with integrity, and how resilience, innovation, and strong values can turn ambitious vision into lasting impact.
