ringing tone Ajit Singh, CEO of the Oncology Care Systems Group at Siemens Medical Solutions, started taking his two daughters on business trips a few years ago. During the first such trip, his daughters attended a business dinner with him. "The conversation quickly took on personal overtones because everyone wanted to interact with my kids," he recalls. One potential customer asked Singh's youngest daughter what her father's greatest weaknesses were. She whispered something in his ear and the table roared. Singh gained a new client and his daughters learned firsthand about their dad's work life, and gained exposure to different cultures across the globe. The second rule is to outsource everything.
