Guest guest Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Sir, It is really very interesting. Dr. C.L.Ramakrishnan, I.P.S.(Retd) used to give Management lectures fully based on our scriptures Ramayana and Bhagawat Geetha for IAS and IPS trainees. Some few years back, Dr. Neelakanta Kumaraswamy, Prof.Metallurgy was in IIT chennai, a delegation from Japan visited and gave training for a week in the modern Managerial Efficacy. At the end of the programme Dr. Kumaraswmy spoke that all that was taught were already imbibed for an Indian in his Joint family life. He inherits all the qualities of Management automatically if he lives in the joint family which is our culture. Particularly in Ramayana, the Rama's conversation with Bharata in Ayodhya Kanta gives completely the list of qualities required for an efficient Manager. It is true that the treasures are here and right now and we don't care for. With regards. Hari.Venkataraman --- On Thu, 9/10/08, P. Subramani <subramani6912 wrote: P.

He's also a management guru who embodies the qualities needed by asmart manager. His big head inspires us to dream big and profitably, his big ears instruct us to listen attentively to new ideas and suggestions, his narrow eyes signifythe need to concentrate, and his small mouth reminds us that silence is golden. And these are just some of the lessons that management students will learnthis Ganesh Chaturthi. Students listen in attention, learning key management skills from the elephant God himself. This was seen at a five-day conference organised by the AhmedabadManagement Association, to forge a link between spirituality and management, aiming to inspire students to imbibe lessons on profitability, innovationand commitment. Darshan Kanadia, MBA Student, Gujarat University said," We have to relate the thoughts that were shared here with our management lessons. The world is talkingabout innovation, but we don't have to go anywhere to look for innovation. It is right here, and we have to look for it. These are some of the lessonsI learnt from here." This series isn't the first of its kind organised by the institute. Taking a leaf out of Japanese management styles, where Zen ideals are used in business,AMA believes Indian scriptures have a lot to teach future managers. Mukesh Patel, Past President, AMA said, ""We believe that Indian scriptures can teach students a lot about how to live better professionally and personally.One of the earlier AMA weeks discussed role models in Indian Ithihasa we picked five Ithihasic characters. Like Krishna, who stood for leadershipand crisis management and Rama for values in public life, these are very interesting aspects we have seen." So this Ganesh Chaturthi, students won't just pay homage to their favourite God, they will also open their minds to divine management principles.
