How can one survive in a market that is volatile and uncertain?
Which strategies have and have not worked in the past?

So what does it take to 'ride the tiger'? Sound and flexible strategy, operational excellence, and dedication to customer-centric innovation. But what does that really mean? How have successful Indian companies managed challenges in an extremely price-sensitive market? In this book, Wilfried Aulbur and Amit Kapoor look at successful and sometimes not-so-successful strategies, operations and innovations in India. They have distilled lessons from their decades of practical work experience in the country.
