Homemaker-CEOs can teach MBAs, corporate managers and businesses
much more than you ever imagined.
Doesn't managing a home's finances, nurturing the family's nutritional and
emotional needs and planning the workflow of everyday activities of different
family members count as management?
Every Mother Is a CEO answers these questions and more. In a breezy,
conversational style, the author Dhanjit Vadra-Managing Director, Allen &
Alvan Pvt. Ltd and CEO, Allen & Alvan Defence & Aerospace-recounts the
ways in which his mother Urmil Vadra worked tirelessly towards managing
a large household, raising a family and assisting his father build a hardware
manufacturing empire from scratch.
Through her common-sense management techniques, knack for organizational
efficiency and most of all, compassion for family and staff, she not only
brought up extremely successful and well-settled children, but also created
a team of dedicated personnel to look after both family and business. In
achieving all this and more, she proves yet again how homemakers are
caregivers, supervisors of finances and inventory, educators and HR managers.
In fact, they are anchors of the whole family unit and the wheel that makes
everything run.
Filled with anecdotes, tips, inspiring stories of business pioneers like Ford and
Godrej, and common business scenarios, this is a riveting and informative
read for managers, employees and students alike. It opens our eyes to the
often overlooked, vital management skills of homemakers.
