L – E – A – D A Leadership Framework from the Indian Knowledge System

Author : Prem Prakash Pathak

This is the only leadership framework that unites timeless dharmic wisdom with modern measurability. It is the only model that stands on the classical triad Sambandha–Abhidheya–Prayojana—right relationships, right practice, right purpose—and translates it into practical scorecards, audits, and behavioral prescriptions for today’s volatile world.
Without it, leaders may know how to win, but they will not know why to lead.
Without it, organizations will continue recycling Western-centric models that solve symptoms but miss the ethical and spiritual root of leadership.
With it, leaders gain an inner compass of equanimity, ethics, and empathy, and an outer map for sustainable, accountable, and predictive leadership that serves people, planet, and future generations.
This book is not another manual of quick fixes. It is a bridge:
• From wisdom to practice
• From character to culture
• From outcomes to right outcomes
The LEAD Framework—Loka-saṅgraha, Equanimity, Association, Dharma—is the blueprint for leaders who want to be both ethically unshakable and operationally reliable. It is not optional; it is essential.
Read it not just to inform yourself, but to transform the way you lead.
