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.

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.
