Passion, devotion, conviction, commitment – four words that can change your life.’ A.M. Naik In 1964, A.M. Naik, a twenty-two-year-old engineering graduate, chanced upon a recruitment advertisement for Larsen & Toubro. Despite almost botching up his final interview, Naik was hired. ‘I’ve sacked thirty-eight engineers-don’t be number thirty-nine’ is what Naik’s boss T. Baker told him on his first day at work. Thus began an era of relentless hard work, infectious zeal, and remarkable achievements, which not only elevated Naik in the L&T hierarchy but also helped transform the company into a multinational conglomerate with presence in more than fifty countries. What makes Naik the energy powerhouse he is and a workaholic, even at eighty-one? What motivates him to forge selfless relationships? What is it about him that inspires those who work alongside him to walk that extra mile for any assignment? A powerful story of grit and determination, passion and resilience, A.M. Naik: The Man Who Built Tomorrow presents a rare look at the person behind the leader and the many worlds he inhabits-from business and industry to nation-building and philanthropy. What’s next for the man whose motto in life is to start walking towards the next goalpost as soon as one is achieved?
