Wonder how can India and China even together have billions of entrepreneurs unless in each family unit there are people who run more than one ventures - one in daytime , another at night etc.
NRIs are bad - so it seems - from Indian perspective - or vice versa. Wonder how Chinese US returned behave - my Chinese roommate seemed much more proud of his nation than others from India. He is back in China - though he had adopted a US name Michael Cheng while in US.

Working paper: What Do Non-Governmental Organizations Do? http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/5833.html Download the pdf. Non-governmental organizations play an increasingly important role in international development. They serve as a funnel for development funds both from individual donors in wealthy countries and from bilateral aid agencies. At the same time, NGOs are frequently idealized as organizations committed to "doing good" while setting aside profit or politicsa romantic view that is too starry-eyed, according to HBS professor Eric D. Werker and Faisal Z. Ahmed. Their paper argues that the strengths and weaknesses of NGOs easily fit into economists' conceptualization of not-for-profit contractors. Working paper: The Impact of Component Modularity on Design EvolutionEvidence from the Software Industry http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/5831.html Download the pdf. What factors should influence the design of a complex system? And what is the impact of choices on both product and organizational performance?

Baldwin analyzed the evolution of a commercial software product from first release to its current design, looking specifically at 6 major versions released at varying periods over a 15-year period. These results have important implications for managers, highlighting the impact of design decisions made today on both the evolution and the maintainability of a design in subsequent years.
