India is now the world's GCC capital, yet many centres still operate as cost engines rather than strategic powerhouses. The ALT HQ challenges that mindset. Drawing on decades of hands on experience, Nilesh Biniwale and Nilesh Kulkarni show how Global Capability Centres can evolve into true alternate headquarters that shape global strategy, innovation, and competitive advantage.
Blending real world case studies with practical frameworks, the book explores setting up a GCC from scratch, nurturing talent, defining the right metrics, leading in complex global environments, and leveraging AI to build future ready organisations. Honest and experience led, it goes beyond theory to offer clear insights for leaders who want their centres to move from efficiency to influence.
The GCC story in India is still unfolding. The ALT HQ equips you to help write its next chapter.
