About the Book
My Indian Passport – Beyond Borders is the final volume in Jishore Abic’s Leadership Trilogy. It brings together years of leadership experience across India, the Middle East, and global organizations, focusing on one central truth: workplaces are shaped more by people and culture than by systems or strategy alone. This book explores how identity, culture, and human behaviour quietly influence trust, communication, and performance at work. It is not a theory book. It is a reflection of lived experience inside real organizations, real boardrooms, and real multicultural environments.
What the Book Explores
This book takes readers through real workplace realities such as:
• Cultural differences in global teams
• Silent biases and unspoken expectations
• Communication gaps across regions and roles
• The emotional side of professional life
• Identity and belonging at work
• Trust building in diverse environments
• Leadership in multicultural organisations
It highlights how small human behaviours often shape big business outcomes.
A Unique Storytelling Approach
A Unique Storytelling Approach Instead of a traditional leadership narrative, the book is told through the perspective of “My Indian Passport”. The passport becomes a silent observer that travels across workplaces, countries, and cultures. It notices how people behave, how leaders respond, and how environments change across borders. This storytelling method makes the subject more relatable, practical, and deeply human.
