Industries and governments will need to reinvent the basic tenants of capitalism implying fundamental transformation of industry and economic models. He passionately advocates that through forward looking strategic and organization models, MNCS could uniquely lead the Global Renaissance. Working with leaders of MNCs the basic question he wishes to address is that - could leaderships of MNCs rekindle the spirit of exploration and bottom up excitement to draw people towards a higher-level purpose increating new knowledge intensive business models and industries in the 21st century. He thinks if the will is there, a transformed eco friendly and energy efficient world, which is more equitable, is indeed within the realm of possibility.
