Time Less Leadership

Beschreibung

Praise for Timeless Leadership "In Timeless Leadership, Debashis Chatterjee returns to the leadership sutras of the Bhagavad Gita to explore the timeless principles of leadership that will enable modern-day leaders to discover the core of their leadership and sustain their effectiveness. His ideas and discoveries will be invaluable for leaders throughout the world who are committed to authenticity in their leadership." --Bill George, Professor, Harvard Business School; former chief executive, Medtronic; and author of True North. "Timeless Leadership provides a wide canvas for young and emerging leaders to introspect, discover, and chart out an effective leadership journey." --Narayana N. R. Murthy, Chairman Emeritus, Infosys Limited "The practical wisdom evidenced is like no other book in modern management literature. Any leader--east or west, north or south--will gain a powerful perspective from seriously engaging with this book, which I believe is bound to become a true classic." --Theodore Roosevelt Malloch, Research Professor, Yale University, and CEO, The Roosevelt Group "Timeless Leadership is both timeless and borderless. It is timeless because the principles of leadership espoused thousands of years ago are contemporary. It is borderless because it transcends all situations of leadership dilemmas, internal conflicts, and ultimate resolutions. My congratulations to Debashis Chatterjee." --Jagdish Sheth, marketing guru and world-renowned author "Professor Debashis Chatterjee has brought out a refreshing and inspired approach to the Bhagavad Gita in Timeless Leadership. He has skilfully outlined the ideals of our modern society and their applications in managerial life." --Swami Tejomayananda, Chairman and Spiritual Head, Chinmaya Mission "Timeless Leadership is one of the most profound books about leadership in ages. This book goes way beyond the typical questions about how to motivate people, or how to get people aligned with your vision for an organization. Timeless Leadership guides leaders in how to address the deeper questions of the purpose and meaning of life, and provides ancient wisdom for some of the most difficult challenges faced by modern-day leaders. This book is both intensely spiritual and eminently practical." --Judi Neal, PhD, Director, Tyson Center for Faith and Spirituality in the Workplace, Sam M. Walton College of Business, University of Arkansas "What can ancient Indian mythology teach today's global leaders? A great deal, according to this engaging analysis by Debashis Chatterjee, who considers leadership through the lens of the Bhagavad Gita. Readers will benefit from Chatterjee's close reading of the Gita, as he traces the leadership journey of a classic hero, Arjuna. We learn that leaders reach their full potential only if they overcome the limitations of their ego. They do this by cultivating a mentality that sees reality clearly, not through the faulty perceptions of a mind unsettled by a "mob" of emotion and conditioned impulses. Chatterjee's leader is courageous but also humbled by the quest for profound self-knowledge that leads to truth and the ability to work with the devotion of "love made visible." Anyone seeking clarity about leadership's ultimate foundation will embrace this book." --Dipak C. Jain, Dean, INSEAD "Timeless Leadership is an invaluable contribution to the literature on leadership. In his inimitable style and with an extraordinary gift for compelling metaphors, Debashis Chatterjee brings the eternal truths of the Bhagavad Gita to fresh and vibrant life, ready to be absorbed and applied by leaders of all types of organizations. Prof. Chatterjee has arrived at the "simplicity on the other side of complexity," the mark of true mastery of his subject. This book is a treasure, a must read for any one aspiring to be a conscious business leader and a fully realized human being." --Rajendra Sisodia, Professor of Marketing, Bentley University
