Top Drawer/Ashok Jain

Ashok Jain, the head of Cadbury Schweppes, is a self-confessed gadget freak. Ha also admits that he has nothing akin to a drawer, save for keeping his numerous phones in. quot;They make too much of a clutter outside.quot; His funky office, designed by him and done up almost entirely in red and black, has a desk for keeping clocks, a bottle of water, a wine glass and an award; a round glass-topped table where he works, and a space to park his lap-top and a couple of globes. quot;Gifts.quot;

There are close to a dozen clocks in his office and he8217;s quick to tell you that every time he8217;s asked to lecture somewhere, he is respectfully handed a clock as a token of appreciation. quot;Do you think there8217;s some way they could be told I have too many?quot;
