Each Indian, says the author, is just like each American, meaning we are all different. Americans, he writes, do tend to be more of a “get it roughly right and get on with it,” culture, while Indians tend to “over think” their work. But even that he insists is changing. The author makes a strong case that in today’s global environment, good Indian companies and good American companies are more alike than they are different. The key difference today is less about culture, and more about finding ways to think and act “outside the well.”
