“The DVS Odyssey –celebrating 15 years of Excellence” is my
favourite book of 2022 so far. This is the topic of my blogpost in return to
the prompt of Blogchatter’s BlogHop.
You might have heard the saying “Don’t judge a book by its cover’’
Here also I insists the same. This book is not written by a famous author and
not being published through a well- known publisher. Basing on these, the book
may not be at an accessible level to all. That’s why I thought to share few fresh perspectives
about the book and the reason for it being my favourite.
The book is a chronicle, souvenir and a memoir carrying with it the
journey of dreams of an entrepreneur who had a start-up plan and initiated to
execute it driven by passion and powered by intellect. How was his journey? How
he conquered his dreams amidst many obstacles? All these and more are presented
in a lively manner in the book covering the ups and downs in the journey and
completing 15 years of this endeavour.
The book opens up with the quote of Matthew Arnold- “Life is not
having and getting its being and becoming”. The book is addressed for both the fellow
travellers and beloved successors. What made to write this book and what’s the purpose
of it?
I quote from the book – “My reflections on the reasons why we are documenting
this chronicle:
·
The journey as a nostalgia
·
Gratitude to instrumental people
in the journey
·
Tributes to our beloved people who
we miss
·
The mistakes more than successes
for the future generations to learn from
·
The strength of successful
partnerships
·
The evolution of our value system
·
Souvenir to people who value us and
our journey
·
Celebrate 15 years of this journey
There are about ten chapters in this book and the author Divakar
Vijayasarathy, Founder and CEO, DVS Advisory group present his experience along
with his partners. Each chapter speaks about a particular section of his firm,
team members, partners, stake holders, clients, mentors and family members.
Most interesting and laudable thing is the chapter – Beyond DVS-
The social Responsibility Initiatives, where the book sprinkles their efforts
taken for the education, towards community building, thought leadership and for
Mother Nature.
Letters from alumni, clients and patron’s are all heart- warming
and showcases the team work of DVS, commitment, and their values system which
fetched them such beautiful responses.
Reading this book is sure to make us to dare to dream and be successful
in life.

Sounds like an inspiring book that includes social responsibilities as well. I've written for the same prompt too.
