"Mr. Kochouseph's enormous success in his areas of business was not just pot luck. A lot of brooding and assessments have gone into the shaping of his enterprises. Like all creative people, he wanted to carve victory out of adverse circumstances. And he has done it admirably. For him, business was a pursuit of excellence, as the book reveals.
The readers can take the words to their hearts, as they are sprouting from a fertile mind with a transparent and positive approach to life, work and society in general. The sincerity of the writing makes it endearing. The reader feels very often that 'I wanted to say that' or 'I could have said it' "

M.T. Vasudevan Nair, Jnanpeeth Award Winner and Renowned Writer
