Courage under Fire
Anyone who has worked in the corporate world, especially in the FMCG sector, knows that calm waters are rare and crises often arrive without warning.
Courage Under Fire is a practical leadership logbook drawn from four decades of Suresh Narayanan’s own
experiences of managing battles in the corporate trenches. Rather than offering abstract leadership theory, the book uses real episodes—across multiple countries—to show how leaders can navigate volatility with judgement, values and coordinated action. It argues that leadership is fundamentally human: built on trust, values, behaviour, credibility and outcomes.
Narayanan uses stories from the MAGGI noodles crisis, the Arab Spring in Egypt, the 2008 financial shock in
Singapore and COVID-era decisions to drive home some fundamentals in management—staying grounded, asking the right questions, communicating clearly and putting people first.
