The book is born out of Namita Thapar's experiences of running the pharma company Emcure, being on several boards, investing in start-ups and mentoring many budding women leaders in corporate India. The book expounds on the concepts of the age-old aggressor leader role - the shark - and the more empathetic style of leadership which is represented by the dolphin. A lot of her talks are centered around balancing the shark and the dolphin within you. The book is divided into fifteen chapters, which focus on perfecting your pitch, planning your investment, role of mentors and networking among other subjects. She has also added interviews with pioneers like Sanjeev Bikhchandani to add value to the entrepreneurship lessons.
