Deshpande on entrepreneurship |
Philanthropist, serial high tech entrepreneur and venture and angel investor Desh Dehspande has published his first book: On Entrepreneurship & Impact; and probably he is the best person to talk about entrepreneurship and its impact on society. His first three questions are: (1) Are you ready to be an entrepreneur? (2) Is entrepreneurship worth It? (3) Is entrepreneurship an art or a science?The book is published by Deshpande Foundation and its foreword is written by N. R Narayana Murthy, founder of Indian tech giant Infosys. Even the foreword by Murthy makes you think right away. Murthy says: In business, you might be able to gain some kind of advantages using shortcuts. These advantages are short-lived. If you want to gain long-term advantage, you need the right foundation of values and principles at play. "On Entrepreneurship and Impact” is a refreshing take on the themes of entrepreneurship and impact. Every article highlights a value, principle, mindset or an approach at the foundational level rather than providing a popular tip or a technique. The focus is on the long-term win rather than gaining a fleeting advantage.And then again who know entrepreneurship better than Murthy himself and who knows Deshpande better than Murthy, his brother-in-law.
