A story from today:
I wanted to bring a person from the Indian subsidiary to France. I spoke to his direct manager without informing the plant manager. I received a refusal from them. After reading Fanny's book and better understanding of the hierarchical relationships and the importance of the direct link, I asked the plant manager for a video. That has just been done and there is no longer any problem for someone to come. It's not the one I thought, but another one that fits well and even better, I think. So long life to this book ! I was surprised by what Fanny said in the first part. I imagined that the Indians were more emotional than the French and I imagined them very detached from money. In short I saw India as a gathering of very spiritual and free mini Gandhi. It was perhaps a bit of an image of Epinal ! The second part gives leads. I adhere to the fact that we are first and foremost human beings who are finally very close despite the difference in culture.

- It is a first book of its kind that looks into practical aspect of life and living and relates with happiness across Indian culture and compares with the French life and living, mainly looking from the cultural perspectives. This book has rich information on the practicality of embodying happiness. It will be helpful for all walks of lives to learn to live a happier and a healthier lives. The practical approaches, which are illustrated from a case study in this book, will be applicable for any individual to organisations, from business to conglomerates for creating a happier society, community, individuals and teams to function effectively and for higher productivity. My congratulations to the writer, Fanny Walter for her hard work to enlighten the readers that there are living examples of happiness models that enrich the human dimension and environment, fuller.

- For all those who have lived in India, love this country, dream of visiting it, travel there, or... do business there, the book and images of Fanny Walter are discovered with delight, teach us a lot about the cultural values of India compared to that of France, and inspire us to revisit our own values and our vision of existence.
