Abstract

Since the origin and evolution of human civilization in the world, the region of India has always been a cohesive place of several cultures, traditions, and customs, along with different systems and policies. It has well-developed ancient civilizations established by the principle-based fundamentalist, idealist, and organized folks or statesmen of the primordial era and given preference to values, morals, and ethics in their work and life conduct. Due to their ethical perspective, they have exceptional skills and knowledge, which made them proficient in their task of managing people, society, or organizations. Moreover, their ethos, management practices, leadership approaches, and respect for familial relationships have proved to be authentic, innovative, and inspiring by scholars, to the rest of the world. This study gives an introduction to the wisdom, expertise, standards, belief-system, and functioning of ancient India because its diversity includes the inclusion and influence of many cultures, and their significance gets reflected through the activities of its entrepreneurs and organizational people. It analyses the indigenous ethos, techniques of managing change and adversity, psychology of innovation and implementation, and workplace dynamics to provide a new prospect of learning to the modern managers and leaders of the present era. It highlights the significance of several approaches required for the fulfilment, wellness, and growth of the employees at work.
