Prof. Dr. Arvind A. Kulkarni has been meditating and contemplating on the various problems of Indian economy and management such as agriculture, socio-economic, psychological, spiritual and commercial. Out of his meditation on Indian management, the book “Glimpses of Indian Management: a Holistic Approach” has been emerged. India is having mixed economy, public and private, and having multidimensional mixed management. The gap between profit-oriented Western Management and contentment-oriented Indian management needs to be bridged by the appropriate holistic approach and method is the main objective of the book. Management should not be considered as a mechanism to augment the profit. On the contrary, it should be considered as a way of life which was advocated and recommended by Indian thinkers, philosophers and spiritualists. This book attempts to give justice to the management-oriented holistic approach to Indian Ethos, Values and Culture. In this era of Information Technology, we need to manage vast with fast for which stability of mind needs to be provided through meditation, which is the main objective of Indian management.
