Bhagavad Gita on Effective Leadership:
Timeless Wisdom for Leaders
The Bhagavad Gita has been predominantly considered a scriptural
summary of the essence of ancient Eastern teachings and wisdom,
as studied in the contexts of philosophy, theology, and ancient
Eastern literature.
Many contemporary writers and thinkers of leadership have presented
theories and practices that are similar to the concepts discussed
in the Bhagavad Gita. Pujan Roka’s Bhagavad Gita on Effective
Leadership is the first to compare the concepts discussed in
the Bhagavad Gita with contemporary leadership theories and practices.
The Bhagavad Gita attests that the subject of leadership was profound
in the ancient East; and its principles are still applicable to
business and organizations today.
Drawing on the brilliant insights gained from the Bhagavad Gita,
Bhagavad Gita on Effective Leadership can show you how
to be a valuable leader.

Bhagavad Gita On Effective Leadership: Timeless
Wisdom For Leaders by Pujan Roka is a fascinating and informative
introduction to effective business management decision making based
upon the ancient and enduring wisdom of the Hindu holy scriptures
known as the Bhagavad Gita. Providing concise guidance based upon
the inspirational ideals of these ancient scriptures, the Bhagavad
Gita On Effective Leadership educates western readers with
a comprehensive and "user-friendly" understanding of the
most effective approaches to management and leadership issues in
the modern world of today. Exceptionally well written and organized
for a western readership, the Bhagavad Gita On Effective Leadership
is very strongly recommended reading for business managers, corporate
executives, and governmental policy makers for its truly remarkable
analysis of the Bhagavad Gita and its contained philosophies as
applied to the roles and responsibilities of contemporary leaders
and managers.

In 1980 I started the National Oil Company of Suriname,
STAATSOLIE, with a group of local people from scratch. In 25 years,
we have built a very profitable and completely integreted oil company
for the people of Suriname with our slogan: "Confidence in
our own Abilities". It is now the pride of the nation. After
reading Roka's book, I discovered that we have obtained much of
our success by living a "Bhavavad Gita-life". We have
faced many challenges and also made many errors, which after reading
Pujan Roka's book could have been avoided. I would warmly recommend
entrepreneurs and business leaders to read this book, which can
serve them as a beacon on their journey.
