This book reflects on the models of leadership espoused by ancient
Indic traditions, in particular the Advaita Vedanta tradition.
Focusing primarily on the Rajarshi - 'the philosopher king' - the
essays in this volume showcase how using these models in
contemporary society could lead to the creation of self-aware and
empathic leaders and an inclusive society. The book explores
examples of the Brahmarshi, or the wise scholar; Rajarshi, or the
wise ruler; and Devarshi, or the visionary, to bring together all
the ideal virtues of inclusive leadership in the current cultural
and political space. The essays in the volume adopt a critical
sociological, philosophical and management lens to analyse Indic
traditions and dharmic concepts. The volume uses concepts such as
dharma, karma and, yoga along with organisational psychology,
technology, and management, to arrive at the concept of
transcendental leadership. It theorises new definitions of the
Rajarshi ideal, which can be used towards public service, social
transformation and self-discovery. The volume will be useful for
scholars and academics interested in Indic philosophies of
leadership and governance, sociology, and social and political
inclusivity. It will also be useful for readers in public
administration, business and management.
