A Shaper operates with a long-term vision and successfully changes the trajectory of the company to make it future ready, in the way Anil Naik shaped the future of Larsen & Toubro (L&T).

Naik built the growth trajectory of L&T on the foundation of �value creation� and transformed the company into an agile and competitive business conglomerate. Based on a series of personal interviews with Naik and his team, the book explores Naik�s mindset and actions that transformed L&T into a leading Indian MNC with a global footprint in fields as diverse as defence, nuclear power and aerospace to financial services, IT and engineering services. How Anil Naik Built L&T�s Remarkable Growth Trajectory is the second book in the series, Shapers of Business Institutions. The book reveals �The Naik Way��new theories of leadership and management as a catalyst to growth.
