THE CEO WHO DIDN’T KNOW THE PRICE

“I don’t know the price of wheat, oil, gold, diamonds, or land.” At first, this sounds like a shocking confession especially coming from a successful entrepreneur in the jewellery and real estate industries. But behind this statement lies a powerful leadership philosophy. In this thought-provoking book, Dr. Abhishek Gilara shares how true business success does not come from knowing every number in the market, but from building a system of trust, mentorship, and leadership. Instead of creating a company full of employees, he built an ecosystem of leaders and individuals who run departments with ownership, accountability, and vision. Through personal experiences, management insights, and lessons learned over years of building businesses and teams, this book reveals: • Why leaders should stop trying to control everything • How trust becomes the most valuable currency in an organization • Why mentoring people is more powerful than managing them • How to build businesses that run on systems rather than individuals • And how thinking in centuries not quarters creates institutions that last generations This is not just a book about business. It is a book about leadership, trust, and the courage to build people who are stronger than the systems they run. For entrepreneurs, leaders, and dreamers who want to build something that outlives them, this book offers a rare and practical perspective. Because the strongest empires are not built by leaders who know everything… They are built by leaders who know how to build other leaders.
