Disrupt and Conquer - How TTK Prestige
Became a Billion Dollar Company
T.T. Jagannathan & Sandy Mendonca
The TTK Group was founded in 1928 in Chennai (then Madras) by T.T. Krishnamachari, who later became a Union minister and held the portfolios of finance, industry and commerce for close to fifteen years.
In this book, the current chairman T.T. Jagannathan, along with Sandhya Mendonca, takes us through the journey of this extraordinary company which fought off bankruptcy and rose like a phoenix to become a highly profitable, successful entity.
What makes this story all the more startling is that T.T. Jagannathan is an accidental and reluctant businessman. He came into the profession very unexpectedly, and without any preparation, with neither an MBA nor having ever worked in the family business before having its very survival entrusted to him. Like a phoenix, the Group and its constituent companies, have risen from the ashes, many times over, to stand tall and proud. This is the story of a journey that began with early success and experienced catastrophic disasters, and set about turning its fortunes around in stunning comebacks, time and again. With invaluable business lessons, decades of experience and innovation distilled in these pages, Disrupt and Conquer is a must-read for aspiring entrepreneurs, executives and business leaders.
This is the autobiography of politician Nafees Fazal,
the first Muslim woman minister from South India,
co-authored by Sandhya Mendonca.
In this tell-all book, Nafees Fazal, a former minister
from Karnataka, comes out with remarkable candour
about her life—from her troubled childhood,
her tumultuous political journey,
and her personal beliefs as a modern woman and
a devout Muslim. This book is as much about her life
as it is about the role of women in Indian politics,
especially women from the Minorities. Anyone with an interest in women’s empowerment, the underbelly
of Indian politics, the challenges faced by progressive women in politics, and who believes in equality
should read this book.
