Vedanta and Management: Relevance of Vedantic Concepts in Modern Management Practices

 
Nalini V. Dave (Author)
Synopsis Modern day executives, managers, entrepreneurs and businessmen have to accomplish so many things in target time and deal with so many people within and outside the organisatioin.  They have also to face a conflict between individual goals and organizational goals.  This creates stress and tension which becomes sometimes difficult to manage and expresses itself into various kinds of diseases.  In a world of fast changing business environment if a manager wants to manage his business successfully and efficiently with least stress and tension and with happiness and harmony in his life, he should practise some of the important basic concepts and values of Vedanta.  This book focuses on some such eternal truths of Vedanta and shows how one can apply these in management practices.  We generally depend on western management thought.  But Indian philosophy and culture has also much to contribute to build up Indian management thought.  Vedanta has many things to contribute in different areas of management like motivating, leadership, communication, management of men, development of proper work culture etc.  it also teaches self-management which plays a vital role in managing the outer world.  Most of us suffer from micro vision and self-centered views of life and create so many conflicts and problems for us and for others on the job and off-the job too.  In fact, we require to develop macro-vision as being taught in Vedanta.  The process of globalisation has made the world very small.  The whole world is now woven into one fabric.  Hence unless we have macro vision, we may create serious problems for the mankind.  Vedanta helps managers in cultivating such macro vision which is the need of the day.  This unique book has its focus on applicability of some Vedantic concepts in management practices.  It will be useful not only for the practicing managers, executives and professionals but also to the management institutes, teachers and students who want to take up further research in this area.  Its usefulness is not restricted to management only.  It is equally helpful to the common man in developing an art of living a happy and satisfied life.
