India is a tough market. And nothing ( yes , not even China ) prepares one for this market.
The normal process is that you plan , do ,check and take action . There are surprises and some degree of adaptation to the plan once begun. So there is some structure .
Here , we plan , and have a plan b and c in mind , then act and keep on improvising all along , a sort of continuous PDCA at every sub-node. The complex unexpected makes it so.
This has an impact on the skills requirement , the organization structures , the leadership style, the delegation of activities.
Companies force-fitting global or even 'emerging market' strategies /tactics/structures will still have successes but not sustained. And will see 3/4 year cycles plaguing them.
Those embracing ambivalence see sustained success.
And maybe that's the reason that wisdom works...
