42. 9 great management lessons from Dhirubhai Ambani "Small men like me don't inspire big words!" Dhirubhaism No 1: Roll up your sleeves and help. sense of ‘do it yourself’ He does not wait for infrastructure to be created to support his operations. He goes out and builds it himself; be it a power plant for his petrochemical enterprise or a canal to bring water from large distances for his cooling plant.

43. Dhirubhaism No 2: Be a safety net for your team. he gently asked his employees if They needed any help in combating the problems they faced. knowledge that he knew and cared for what his team was going through, and that he was there for Them if needed him….worked wonders for confidence. “He gave courage which we never new we had”

44. Dhirubhaism No 3: The silent benefactor. When he helped someone, he never ever breathed a word about it to anyone else "Expect the unexpected" just might have been coined for him.

45. Dhirubhaism No 4: Dream big, but dream with your eyes open. "It's difficult but not impossible!" Whenever a task seemed too big to be accomplished, he would reply: " No is no answer!" Not only did he dream big, he taught all of us to do so too. his favorite phrase "dream with your eyes open"

46. 5. Dhirubhaism: Leave the professional alone! management techniques of him is different the simplest strategies are often the hardest to adopt. “let professionals do the work” This technique enforced responsibility among his team "Produce your best."

47. 6. Dhirubhaism: Change your orbit, constantly! Dhirubhai's "orbit theory." This is no miracle. when you change orbits, you will create friction. The good news is that your enemies from your previous orbit will never be able to reach you in your new one. By the time resentment builds up in your new orbit, you should move to the next level. And so on. Changing orbits is the key to our progress as a nation.

48. 7. The arm-around-the-shoulder leader It was Dhirubhai's very own signature style Arm around the shoulder -With that one simple gesture, he managed to achieve many things. This tendency that he had, to draw people towards him, manifested itself in countless ways. …that did much more than words in letting me know that I belonged, that I had his trust, and that I had him on my side!

49. 8. The Dhirubhai theory of Supply creating Demand He was not an MBA. Nor an economist. But yet he took traditional market theory and stood it on its head. And succeeded. when everyone in India would build capacities only after a careful study of market, he went full steam ahead and created giants of manufacturing plants with unbelievable capacites.

50. 9. Money is not a product by itself, it is a by-product, so don't chase it He did not breathe a word about profits, nor about becoming the richest A by-product is something that you don't set out to produce. It is the spin off when you create something larger.

51. Success Success in attaining that goal will eventually ring in the cash. For instance, if you work towards creating a name for yourself and earning a good reputation, then money is a logical outcome. People will pay for your product or service if it is good Sounds too simplistic for belief? Well, look around you and you will know exactly how true it is.
