A fascinating collection of essays and extracts from some of Asia's leading business figures
Influenced by such ancient traditions as Indian yoga-vedanta and the wisdom of Confucius, Asian business leaders display a unique management style in sharp contrast to the management values of Western business schools. While command-and-control is common among Asian leaders, the most effective of them integrate their strong character with compassion, ethics, and philanthropy. These leaders are integrating rich tradition with the new skills and leadership needed to thrive in the global marketplace. Taken from various languages, cultures, and traditions, Asia Leadership Wisdom presents an enlightening look at modern Asian leadership.
