Leadership has always been central to organizational success, not only in terms of decision-making but also in shaping ethical, sustainable, and people-oriented practices. In today’s globalized economy, businesses face challenges of corruption, unethical practices, and short-term profit orientation, which often compromise long-term sustainability. Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS), particularly the Bhagavad Gita, offer timeless guidance for addressing such challenges. The Bhagavad Gita provides philosophical insights into leadership, duty (Dharma), balance (Samattva), and selfless action (Nishkama Karma), which are highly relevant in the modern business environment. It bridges the gap between material pursuits and ethical responsibility, offering leaders a framework to act with clarity, fairness, and integrity.
