Rajat Gupta recognized as the Global Indian of the year

After being chosen to lead the Brahmins of the consulting world, Rajat , a 1971 Mechanical Graduate of IIT Delhi and a prominent Mech71 member, repeated the feat and was re-elected as McKinsey's managing director in 1997 and again in 2000. With him at the helm, McKinsey grew at a scorching pace. By 2002, he had expanded McKinsey's network to 84 global locations from 58, increased number of consulting staff to 7,700 from 2,900, and lifted revenues to $3.4 billion from $1.2 billion in 1993. During this time, the company entered emerging markets like China and India. Entry into other Asian countries too has been credited to him. Since stepping down as managing director, Gupta, while continuing work with McKinsey as a senior partner, has increased his involvement with India significantly. Apart from continuing to guide ISB, he has also passionately taken up the cause of supporting entrepreneurship in the country by building stronger ties between Indian and US-based entrepreneurs.
