From the Back Cover
"While many have read about outsourcing in India and China, Utkarsh truly 'owns' the experience of establishing multiple, successful, operations in India and speaks from both his mind and his heart in this book. Utkarsh is a wise advisor when he creates case studies to put you in the other person's shoes to understand the environment that person or work group lives in." Mr. Gary Rieschel, Founder and Managing Director, Qiming Venture Partners, China

"Utkarsh has experienced off-shoring himself, that is evident from the way he writes this book. From that experience, he provides a full spectrum of all the important aspects of an off-shoring operation, in great practical detail." Dr. Bob Hoekstra, Opportunity India Management Consulting, Holland and former CEO Philips Innovation campus, India

"Utkarsh's book, drawn from his substantial experience in working in this industry and then steering a start-up to success. This is an excellent primer not only for those intending to start operations in the already overheated IT industry in India, but also for those who are already running operations and are facing numerous challenges to be successful." Mr. Sammy Sana, Managing Director, Motorola Software Group, India Design Center

"While guarding a reader on the likely pitfalls on the way, the author systematically takes a reader through all aspects of implementation; be it hiring an office space, recruiting staff, or managing cultural differences. How to manage expectations of the parent company while simultaneously addressing local issues have been dealt with in great detail."
