Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources.   The editor-in-chief of the newsletter is Anshima P. Srivastava, Assistant Professor of Business Communication/Technical Communication, Language and Literature. The author of the book review, Rahul Mishra, is part of the ICICI Business Leadership Programme. I consider the book review to be reliable because it has editorial oversight from a professor.

 <li> The article notes: "Upworldly Mobile is a guide to behavioural and business skills for the new Indian manager. This is a book which came out of observing expatriate and Indian managers closely for over 17 years. ... Her first chapter explains how to meet and greet people from other cultures. This is not as simple as it sounds. ... Manian takes pains to explain what works with Westerners. ... Upwardly Mobile also tells a young manager how to deal with the Far East. ... Upwardly Mobile offers a lot of tips to foreigners as well. It is a genuine attempt to bridge the gaps between global citizens, all drawn from Manians interaction with her list of over 1,000 clients, from 76 nationalities, many of them from Fortune 500 companies. The style is chatty and anecdotal. It is definitely a ready reckoner for the global Indian setting forth on her maiden assignment."</li> <li> The editor-in-chief of the newsletter is Anshima P. Srivastava, Assistant Professor of Business Communication/Technical Communication, Language and Literature. The author of the book review, Rahul Mishra, is part of the ICICI Business Leadership Programme. I consider the book review to be reliable because it has editorial oversight from a professor. The article notes: "Upworldly Mobile is intended for any Indian professional or budding professional who has to deal with expatriate colleagues virtually or in person, in India or abroad. It is a guide to the behavioral and business skills for the new Indian managers and the expatriate managers. ... This is a very practical book and will, no doubt, be of great help to Indians venturing into the global world of business. It’s worth a quick read."</li> <li> The article notes: "There is a fine line between stereotyping people of different cultures and understanding the unique traits and practices every culture brings with it. Ranjini Manian's book Upworldly Mobile offers an insight on cultural intelligence for Indian managers and expats. ... Upwordly Mobile published by Penguin India is priced at Rs. 250 and carries a foreword by Shashi Tharoor."</li> <li> The article notes: "The audience bursts into laughter when Ranjini Manian, Founder and CEO of relocation and cross-cultural destination services company Global Adjustments, poses this question to Jennifer McIntyre, Consul General, US Consulate, Chennai. The conversation is part of the launch of Upworldly Mobile: Behaviour and Business Skills for the New Indian Manager, Manian's book, launched at Chennai on Thursday. Penguin is the publisher. ... The book aims to provide practical tips to enhance communication between Indian managers working with expatriates or in global workplace. Through anecdotes, it tells readers how to deal with real-life situations, running the gamut from dress sense and firm handshakes to meeting deadlines and expectations."</li> </ol>

There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Upworldly Mobile to pass Notability, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".
