Praise for the book

Shivaji Sengupta has been and will always remain one of my closest friends, a true philosopher, and a guiding force in my life.. What made him exceptional wasn’t just his competence-it was his deeply human approach to leadership. Am incredibly excited about this book, which prom-ises to chronicle the evolution of India’s insurance industry through the lens of people, purpose, and leadership. There’s no one more qualified to tell this story than Shivaji.
