If you are an un- or under-employed engineer, I highly recommend picking up a copy of Chad Fowler's book My Job Went To India. If nothing else, it will shine some light into a different culture and different values.
However, what might be of more interest in the short-term could be this article from Kevin Barnes.
Fascinating.

Culturally there are vast differences between Indian business world and its western counterparts. I suggest that the visitors prepare themselves for the cultural differences in Business India.
If you are aware of these cultural differences you can certainly turn the high skilled Indian workforce to your advantage.
