Description
New Age International (P) Ltd., Publishers Management In New Age Western Windows Eastern Doors by Dr. Subhash Sharma
Increased global contacts have necessitated that Western managers acquire greater understanding of the `Eastern Doors`, and Eastern managers look beyond the ‘Western Windows’. Concepts and frameworks presented in the book arise from this view for a new combination of management ideas from the West and the East to facilitate `holistic globalization.
Using the methodology of position-opposition-proposition, discussion-dialogue-discourse and the innovative idea of ‘sabdh yoga’, this book looks at various perspective related to society, organizations and individuals with which managers in the new age have to contend. Accordingly, the foundations of the management in new age are based on Holistic Development and Management (HDM), Human Quality Development (HQD) and Total Quality of Mind (TQM).
The book explores the interlink ages between management thought, social discourse and spiritual concerns that constitute three foundational themes of the book. Through an integration of market, society and self, it articulates the vision of sacro-civic society and sacro-civic nations rooted in harmony paradigm that aims at a new balance between utilitarian, ecotarian and ethicotarian philosophies of life. It suggests the need for a paradigm shift from, ‘survival of the fittest to eliminate the rest‘ to ‘arrival of the best to lead the rest’.
