You are on top of your career. You love the job you are doing. You were rated 'excellent' in your latest assessment. But, for reasons beyond your control, you have just been fired. The modern executive faces many challenges. The old days of steady jobs in safe posts are gone.

Faced with his own crisis, Nirmalya Kumar, renowned professor, recognized globally for his marketing and strategy expertise, used the experience to come out a winner.
