What is Indian-ness? Is it jugaad? What are the facets of the Indian boss? Who is a DESI LEADER? 

I am joined by Steve Correa, author of The Indian Boss at Work: Thinking Global, Acting Indian.

In this two part series, we explore how well leaders understand ‘Indian-ness’ and the contextual cultural codes.  In this episode, we cover the concepts of Indian-ness, the role of Kaal, Desh and Patra in our worklives, contrast management philosophies prevalent in the East and the West, the 4 varnas of life as described in ancient texts,  the role of Dharma or duty and Karta or the head in work context. 

What no one tells you is that leadership is an art and a craft, but between the two lies ‘business’. I am convinced the ABC of leadership must be learnt.
