Effective leadership is not about being a superhero but about transforming oneself, taking responsibility and giving credit to others, IIM Bangalore professor B. Mahadevan said at a lecture organized by the Federation of Telangana Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FTCCI) in Hyderabad on Friday.

Speaking on ‘Inspirational Leadership: Insights from the Bhagavad Gita’ at KLN Prasad Auditorium, Federation House, Red Hills, he explained how the Bhagavad Gita is a guide to leadership, decision-making, ethics, performance and human behavior, highlighting principles such as leading by example and focusing on action rather than results. FTCCI President K.K. Maheshwari said the management principles and human values discussed in the ancient scripture remained relevant despite centuries of change. Business leaders, entrepreneurs, corporate executives, academicians, management professionals and students attended the program.
