Book excerpt: "Sometimes 'looking backward' is the best way to 'look forward'. "Bhagavad Gita on Effective Leadership" does just this! Coaching from the old world-that fits the new world." -Marshall Goldsmith, named by the American Management Association as one of the fifty great thinkers and business leaders who have impacted the field of management over the past eighty years ""Bhagavad Gita on Effective Leadership" presents the ancient leadership wisdom that is very relevant to today's world. Leaders will find this wisdom very practical." -Dipak C. Jain, Dean, Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University "This book transcends the things leaders do to be effective. It defines what a leader must be. As you read "Bhagavad Gita on Effective Leadership," you will recognize and validate what you do as a leader, and challenge you to become a more compassionate and selfless leader. Many will find the challenge great. This is the right book at the right time, is long overdue, and will profoundly impact you and the people you lead." -Bob Schaumburg, Executive Coach, Sprint Corporation
