When New Yorker Sandy Walker accepts an executive position in Chennai, India, she expects a new challenge and perhaps a chance to escape the monotony of home. Instead, she finds herself immersed in an unfamiliar culture, a fast-growing company, and a workplace that is not quite what it seems.
Then she meets Kicha, a young Indian entry-level operator whose intelligence, idealism, and stubborn belief in loftier purposes challenge everything she thought she knew about India, the business-and herself.
As Sandy and Kicha pursue their careers, troubling decisions inside IPT begin to surface. Employees are caught between relentless growth and the human cost of keeping up, while the company's leaders have designs of their own. What begins as a cross-cultural encounter becomes a struggle over money, integrity, leadership, and the kind of global business worth building.
From Chennai to New York, Sandy and Kicha must decide what they are willing to risk-for their careers, for the people who depend on them, and ultimately, for each other.
