Question

(Give title, heading, sub headings and abbreviations).
(A speech by N.R. Narayan Murthy at The Lal Bahadur Shastri Institute of Manangement.)
When I got the invitation to speak here, I decided to speak on an important topic on which I have pondered
for years the role of western values in contemporary Indian society. Coming from a company that is built
on strong values, the topic is close to my heart. Moreover, an organization is representative of society, and
some of the lessons that I have learnt are applicable in national context. In fact, values drive progress and
define quality of life in society. The word community joins two Latin words 'com' (together or with) and
"unus' (one). A community then, is both one and many. It is a unified multitude and not a mere group of
people. As it is said in the Vedas: Man can live individually, but can survive only collectively.
Hence the challenge is to form a progressive community by balancing the interests of the individual and that
of the society. To meet this, we need to develop a value system where people accept modest sacrifices for
the common good. What is a value system? It is the protocol for behavior that enhances the trust, confidence
and commitment f the members of the community. It goes beyond the domain of legality; it is about decent
and desirable behavior. Further, it includes putting the community interests ahead of your own. Thus, our
collective survival and progress is predicated on sound values.​
