INTRODUCTION OF INDIAN ETHOS

“The ability to do the right thing and, what is more important, doing it every time is the noblesse oblige in the managerial milieu. It must become the done thing, the insignia and talisman of a professional manager.”

EVERY country has its own culture and character based on the social, political and economic environment in which it operates. From that culture springs forth the national ethos, which prescribes a code of conduct for its citizens and creates the context for business ethics and values in that society. Indian ethos and wisdom — a legacy and heritage from its hoary past — envisaged a socialistic pattern of society, with an accent on redistributionism.

Ethics and values must find a place in the art and science of management. The ability to do the right thing and, what is more important, doing it every time (even when no one is watching) is the noblesse oblige in the managerial milieu. It must become the done thing, the insignia and talisman of a professional manager.

Indian ethos is more vital to modern management than any other management theory for the simple reason that it takes in to account a 'whole' man rather than approaching man in a partial fashion as the other theories do. Each and every situation can be met with effectively if one takes time to reflect over it. Reflection with a tranquil mind helps in drawing out solutions from within. Such guidance from within helps a manager looks at the perceived problem situation in a creative manner. It leads to a more coherent and complete understanding.

Indian ethos
1) Know Yourself:

Who are you? All of us are part of supreme power (GOD) & hence all of us have all the divine qualities like integrity, patience, courage, loyalty, forgiveness, service attitude i.e. mind so if you try to develop our self by improving our qualities we will not only make our self happy but also the society be live in.



2) Individual development:



3) Self Management & Self Development:


Self management is voluntary i.e. has to be done on your own

Mahatma Gandhi says several things destroy us –



1. “ Wealth Without Work ”



2. “ Pleasure Without Convenience ”



3. “ Knowledge without Character ”
i.e. Knowledge without politeness



4. “ Commerce Without Morality ”



5. “Science without Humanity” Science
but employment is getting slower i.e. less vacancy due to modern technology i.e. less number of workers.



6. “Religion without Sacrifice”
i.e. provides charity or do nation“Politics without Principles” for example fight for voting’s etc.

If we get rid of all this qualities we can manage our self

4) Holistic Approach To Life:

We should behave in same way of manner which we expect from others. Efficiency & effectiveness in an organization will increase only when there is co-operation team spirit & positive energy in employees.



5) Sewa Or Service Attitude:

The person should have altitude of service providing & at the same time have happy face i.e. smile on face.eg: organization should be service oriented & not profit oriented, provide best possible service to your entire customer.

“Where the mind is without fear” – Ravindranath Tagore.



6) Self Sacrifice:

Self sacrifice refers to sacrifice of self ego. We should be ready to sacrifice for others.



7) Team Spirit:

Treat work as YAJNA – together i.e. T- Together E- Everyone, A- Achieves, M- More.
