 The modern management concepts like vision, leadership, motivation, excellence

in work, achieving goals, meaning of work, attitude towards work, nature of
individual, decision making, planning etc., are all discussed in the Bhagavad Gita
with a sharp insight and finest analysis to drive through our confused grey matter
making it highly eligible to become a part of the modem management syllabus
The Bhagavad Gita says:
The grass roots level of human thinking
because once the basic thinking of man is
improved it will automatically enhance
the quality of his actions and their results
 Utilization of Available Resources

 Attitude Towards Work

 'I am a poor man. I have to maintain my family. I am making a

living here,' said the first stone-cutter with a dejected face. 'Well, I
work because I want to show that I am the best stone-cutter in the
country,' said the second one with a sense of pride. 'Oh, I want to
build the most beautiful temple in the country,' said the third one
with a visionary gleam
 Their jobs were identical, but their perspectives were different.

 What Gita tells us:

 Develop the visionary perspective in the work we do.
 Develop a sense of larger vision in one's work for the common
good.
 Work Commitment:

 Bhagavad Gita says a lot about the Theory of cause and

effect

 People are responsible for the consequences they face

because of their actions in the past.
 Kauravas were strong in all the aspects from the
Pandavas be it military, wealth, kingdom etc.
 But still the Pandavas turned their attention to improving
over there weakness like:
i. Arjuna set out a mission to acquire Divyastras.
ii. Yudhisthira acquired teachings from the various wise
rishis, and also learnt the Game of Dice from
Gandharava Chatrasma.
iii. Arjuna opted lord Krishna rather then choosing his
army.
iv. Worked Strategically in the war front.
 Kauravas though they had greatest empire of the time,
but they did not made many powerful allies except from
few old relations.

 Pandavas though they had no wealth, no power but they

made powerful allies:

 Panchalas through marriage with Darupadi.

 Dwaraka through marriage of Arjuna with Subhadra.
 Magadha through marriage of Shadeva with Vijaya.
 Chedi through marriage of Nakula with Karenmayi.
 Kasi through marriage of Bhima with Balandhara.
 Matsya through marriage of Abhimanyu with Uttara.
 Rakshasas through marriage of Bhima with Hidimba.
 Kauravas followed centralized leadership i.e one head of Army at a
time, who used to be the supreme authority of 11 Akshouhini.

 Pandavas followed distributed leadership. Seven commander for

the seven division( 1 man commands 1 Akshouhini)

 Virat (king of Matsya)

 Drupad ( king of Panchala)
 Shahdeva (king of Magadha)
 Dhrshtaketu (king of Chedi)
 Satyaki ( only warrior from Dwarka)
 Shikhandi ( Prince of Panchala)

Dhrshtadymna – Commander in Chief

Arjuna – Supreme Commander
Krishna – Arjuna’s charoter and counselor
 Kauravas: No team spirit. They all fought their individual wars.

 Bhisma: For his Vow to protect the throne Hastinapur.

 Drona & Kripa: They owed allegiance to the throne.

 Shalya: Simply cheated by Duryodhana to be there.

 Karna: To prove his mantle against Arjuna.

 Pandavas: One team. One Goal. They all contributed in the decision
making process.

Team-Work Succeeds where Individual Effort fails.

 A Team of Traitors
 Kauravas: Except for Duryodhana nobody wanted the
war. All the 4 main generals had strong ties with the
Pandavas.
 Bhisma( GrandChildren)- Wont kill the Pandavas.Will
kill a thousand Soldiers each day.
 Drona(Students)- Wont kill the Pandavas. Will Capture
them only.
 Shalya(Nakula-Shadeva’s maternal uncle)- Love the
Pandavas and helped them bye humiliating karna.
 Karna(Brother to the Pandavas)- Promised not to kill any
of the other Pandavas Save Arjuna.
 Pandavas: Common Goal. But the Individuals had their
individual targets. Their own agenda, which just became
on with the team’s agenda.
 Dhratsadyumma: Drona
 Shikhandi: Bhisma
 Satayaki: Bhurisravas
 Arjuna: Karna
 Bhima: Duryodhana and his brothers
 Sahadeva: Shakuni and his sons
 Nakula: Karan’s Sons

The Right Team is made by Selecting the Right

Individuals. Get the Right man for Right Job.
 Kauravas: The Greatest Crisis Manager the world has seen.
 Yudhisthira: Low-Key Strategist

 Know your Enemies weakness and exploit them.

 Take Calculated risks.
 Inspire, Invigorate, Counsel your own team in moments
of need.
 Women are Better Half.
 Any team which doesn’t have women is
unbalanced, for the Masculine traits of Aggression
and Dominance should be balanced by the
Feminine traits of Harmony.

 Corruption: One should remain satisfied by what ever is
earned through honest labor.

 Dowry: Non-possessiveness is the balancing of needs and

desires while staying detached from our possessions.

 Child labor: Giving respect to others irrespective of their

 Manu, the first man, formulated detailed rules regarding
conduct of a society

 Kept busy at home and allowed outside only under
supervision.

game of dice.

it was not practiced.

ensure that women get their rightful place in society .

to focus on any one of them.

 The one, who’s vision, thoughts, speech and action aim at serving all
form of lives across the globe in a selfless state of mind is the real
leader who is admired by the world at large.

 Three major things which lead us i.e. the soul, to hell are:

 Lust
 Anger
 Greed
