  1. Nice orientation to a different point of view, Prof. I’d just say that Western (well, at least in the US,where I ply my trade), there is an increasing recognition of the need to utilize multiple management approaches, and that the old model isn’t working well.

  2. Thanks Sudhakar, enjoyed reading your post. I' m deeply interested in ancient Indian wisdom transmitted orally as well as the wisdom of our scriptures, epics, ancient novels and literature. I would like to add a point from my side regarding public policy. I feel that understanding the pulse of the public is extremely important for formulating effective public policy. This might seem like a no- brainer , but I feel that it tends to not get the kind of attention it deserves. Any individual involved in formulating public policy should be extremely well conversant with the requirements, sensibilities, aspirations & cultural context of the target audience.

  4. Well articulated thoughts...the topic still not much explored and must be included as part of course curriculum in management courses.

  5. Superb research on ancient Indian texts and fine explanation of how this wisdom is relevant for today. Glad to note increasing focus and attention on Indian management distilled from Puranas and Bhagavatgita and great emperors of past. It is heartwarming to witness we are distinctly making popular knowledge and management of Indic sources as opposed to imported concepts alien to our culture and ethos. More power to such path breakers 👍
