Foreword

Sudha’s book, a collection of letters from inspirational men and women, is a reiteration of my belief that our parents can be our best teachers mine certainly have been for me and my two brothers. It is from our parents that we internalize the values that shape our lives.

N.R. Narayana Murthy’s letter to his daughter Akshata is a delight to read he comes across as a doting father who is keen that his daughter benefits from the wealth of his own daughters about their ancestors and their great accomplishments. It is heart worming to read his thought about the struggles of women at work and how he is inspired by them.

Only a truly global leader like Narayana Murthy can tell his daughter to become a citizen of the world in every sense while simultaneously asking her to be a proud Indian, wherever in the world she lives.

Looking back at my own life after all these years, I can say without hesitation that I was lucky to have been born to my parents, the two extraordinary individuals who shaped my life and made me what I am today. I owe them everything that I have achieved.

Although my father is no more, he remains my strongest source of inspiration. Through my letter to my parents, I hope to convey what they mean to me.
