Dear reader,
In an interview with BW Businessworld recently, Infosys founder N.R. Narayana
Murthy said that “respect from stakeholders must top corporates’ vision
statement”. He has often said that when he wanted to build Infosys, he was not
looking at creating the “most profitable company”, or the “largest company by
market cap”. Instead, he wanted to create “the most respected company”.
Indeed, “respect” even if it’s an intangible, does wonders to a company’s topline
and bottomline in the long run. When it gets all stakeholders’ respect, it sets an
example for others, too.
Like every year, BW Businessworld, in its current issue, presents India’s Most
Respected Companies.
The 2023 edition of Most Respected Companies (MRC) study is perceptionbased,
and it examines corporate social responsibility, women-friendly policies,
a rewarding work culture, in addition to an effective growth plan and financial
returns. This year’s survey was conducted by our knowledge partner, TechSci
Research. The study mapped the current perception levels in the minds of
employees and self-employed individuals in India.
