Quo Vadis?
Bharat Goenka
1. The way volumes and profitability have been changing.
2. The way the methods of doing business have been changing.
Typically, the first was largely dependent on the objectives each one of us pursued. Some were consolidating, some were aggressive, and some were coping with the challenges thrown at them. Some were lucky, and some less so. Some even benefited from the changes they brought into their style of functioning, while some suffered because of the changes.
In any event, examining this history of volumes and profitability rarely throws any specific light on the future.
In contrast, let us look at the second aspect. In almost all cases one would find that the number of changes that took place in the methods of doing business in the last five years was much higher than the number of changes brought in during the last 10 years.
