<br/><br/> The relationship between leadership and literature is described by the learned as that of soul and body. As Warren G bennis and James o'toole argued, if fiction could be a best instructor of leadership and organizational behaviour, what best fiction could there be for leaders-in-the-making than the ramaya? A-a familiar epic that is highly enriched by pathos, moral profundity and noble simplicity-to learn the complexities of leadership? It is against this backdrop that the present book attempts to combine and interlace the leadership/management thoughts of modern management gurus with that of the experiences of characters from the ramaya? A which have displayed streak of leadership and present a perspective of what is and what is not effective leadership. The struggle of these unsparingly realistic epic characters, when read by business leaders, is likely to broaden their horizon of imagination and visualisations of complexities embedded in leadership. It also affords better understanding of their own conflicts. Put together, all this paves the Way for better leadership.
