Today, India boasts a sophisticated industrial and manufacturing base, a rapidly expanding service sector, a huge pool of skilled, low-to-moderate-cost workers including professional managers, and an established free-market system. India has capitalized on its large, well-educated, English-speaking workforce to become a major exporter of information technology services and software professionals. Yet this is only one dimension of India’s intriguing one billion plus people. In contrast more than 200 million people still live on less than one dollar per day. It’s this kind of economic and social disparity that still marks the business cultural landscape, which is a reflection of the country’s extremes. To understand today’s Indian business environment, it’s essential to understand the local culture. bWise India is part of Atma Global’s bWise – Business Wisdom Worldwide-- series.
