Hailing from a small town in Haryana, where his family ran grain mills, Chandra has been a perennial outsider. Starting work as a teen to pay off family debts, he’d had to rely on bluff, gumption and sheer hard toil to turn things around. A little bit of luck and political patronage saw him make a fortune in rice exports to the erstwhile USSR. Always a risk-taker, Chandra then had the vision of getting into broadcasting early, even as established media players failed to see its potential. His Zee TV, India’s first private Indian TV channel, changed the rules of the game. The Z Factor is a candid memoir of a truly desi self-made businessman who continues to reinvent himself – he is now a Rajya Sabha MP as well as a major player in the field of infrastructure. aContents: Small Beginnings A Crisis In the Family Thinking Out of the Box Young Man on the make Between the Sheets Diversifying Into Packaging Pole-Vaulting to a Higher Plane The Russians are coming Of Rice....and Avarice A Late-Night Meeting with Mrs G Good Things come in Small Packages A Rough Roller-Coaster Ride Broadcasting My Intentions The $5 Million Gamble It's Showtime, Folks Who Will Manage The Managers The Newsroom A Rocky Partnership Setting My House in Order Friends and Enemies Losing $6 Billion It's Not Cricket Calming Influences The Art of Management A Satellite Project Runs Aground Stabbed In the Back New Horizons Epilogue aEconomics aEntrepreneurship 2ddccBK 00102ddc4070aBSDUbBSDUcGENd2018-11-29g499.00l0o384.5520954 CHAp017588r2020-02-12 00:00:00v499.00w2018-11-29yBK
