Tirupati Balaji Namaha
Sri Ganeshaya namaha
The veracity of application to Kautilya's Arthashastra ranges to limitless boundaries of knowledge and learning from medicine to education to philosophy and even to contemporary management sciences. Kautilya's Arthashastra is a masterpiece of the 326 BC in the Mauryan Era which is a Moola Mantra not only for political governance but also a Gupta mantra for corporate management governance. The preaching and mandates of Kautilya elevate human thinking to act beyond his sixth sense involving cognitive, affective and motor domains necessary to gain complete control over management of self and institutions . Thus human personality ( the king) must manifest multi dimensional adaptive roles at different times by demonstrating extraordinary intuition, self control, vision, accurate prediction, confidence in decisions taken, combating venom attacks etc. Such qualities are no differently to be enumerated by a successful management expert. The king is a ruler of the kingdom ( a corporate leader) and as a decision maker has to be secretive about his war strategies ( incubating new product developments) at the same time be offensive and defensive with enemies (corporate rivalry and competition) as the threat perception may be ensuring his survival despite enemy attacks (presence of substitutes and complementary products and disruptive technologies). Such preaching are of the nature of Gupta Mantra.
The epitome of a political architecture is its legal system and the king is a protector and preserver of the law but most definitely not its creator which means his power is sanctioned and limited by law. Be the powers vested, the actions of CEOs of companies are governed by the Companies Act , Income Tax Act, SEBI Regulations, and the likes of these.
