Knowledge Creation

I just received my latest edition of the McKinsey Quarterly, a pretty interesting business journal mailed regularly to me by my former employer. I get about 6 a year, which I loyally place on a bookshelf at home for future knowledge seeking moments. But this one caught my attention: Fulfilling India's Promise.

The various articles analyze (and offer a ton of facts about) many business/economic aspects of India: the view of foreign and indian executives, the indian consumer, marketing to the masses, when to make india a manufacturing base, india's offshoring future, reforming india's financial system, securing india's energy needs, an interview with manmohan singh (the prime minister) on india's economic agenda. the recommendations in the aggregate could transform the economy i.e., the lives of the population!

The sheer power of the knowledge creation I was witnessing amazed me. Echoing Gotham's recent optimistic post, although problems do sometimes seem to abound, there are some things that are amazing about what's going on in this new, developing, evolving world of ours!
