About the Book

Higher Standard of Leadership Rediscover the enduring moral values essential to a higher quality of life and leadership through the spirit and wisdom of Gandhi Mohandas K Gandhi is one of the most successful and revered leaders of all time. This is the first book to apply lessons from his life to the practical tasks faced by today?s business and political leaders. A lifelong student of Gandhi's teachings and a businessman with more than 25 years of experience in leadership development, Keshavan Nair is uniquely positioned to bridge the two worlds. Through illustrative examples from Gandhi's life and writings, Nair identifies commitments- to conscience, openness, service, values, and reduced personal attachments- and describes the courage and determination necessary to work and lead by them. He explores the process of making decisions, setting goals, and implementing actions in the spirit of service that is essential to the realization of a higher standard of leadership in our workplaces and communities. "By writing this first-rate account, Keshavan Nair has made an enormous contribution that should be read by anyone who aspires to lead by example.? Robert Levering coauthor of The 100 Best companies to work for in America, and author of A Great place to Work "Dr. Nair has written an engrossing and insightful book showing that, in today's rapidly changing, globally interconnected world, the enduring values that Gandhi exhibited are essential to leadership and must be part of business strategy if we are to achieve sustainable employee commitment and customer loyalty." Robert J Haywood, Senior Vice President, Pacific Gas and Electric Company "Dr. Nair's book provides wonderful insight for anyone seeking enduring leadership.? Michelle Beale, Senior Vice President, Human Resources and Public Affairs, The Minute Maid Company
