Enlightened Manager

CEO and entrepreneur Vishwanath Alluri and columnist and poet Harry Eyres gained some clarity in life and work through the teachings of Indian sage J Krishnamurti, whom some describe as the "guru of gurus" but is known by others as, simply, "the friend on the bench". Now Alluri and Eyres have teamed up to think through the management problems of today in the light of Krishnamurti's timeless insights. Can we be more productive and make better decisions by becoming radically self-aware? How can the essential human arts of humility and compassion make us more effective leaders? Is there more wisdom in a single story about a man pushing a bus, than in a hundred strategy powerpoints? The Enlightened Manager is deeply informed by the life experience of Alluri, an entrepreneur who has founded and led several global tech companies, but it is so much more than a business book. It is the beginning of a journey which inspires us to redefine success, rethink management, and transform the essence of work itself.
