Workshop on Management Lessons from The Bhagvad Gita

Dr. Girish Lad recently delivered an insightful session on the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita for management at the renowned Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS). The session was attended by over 251 students who gained valuable insights into how the wisdom of the Gita can be applied to their management careers. Dr. Lad elaborated on fundamental concepts of the Gita, particularly focusing on its application in personal development, leadership, and effective decision-making.

He emphasized the role of Gyaan Yoga (the pursuit of knowledge), Dhyan Yoga (mental and physical fitness through meditation), and Bhakti Yoga (devotion and passion) in achieving success and fulfillment in both personal and professional life. Dr. Lad also highlighted the significance of "Pradnya" (wisdom combined with intelligence) and guided the students on how to cultivate "SthitPradnya" (a state of equanimity characterized by rational thinking and controlled emotions, thoughts, and behavior). These teachings offer students a powerful framework for leading a balanced and successful management career.
