Business-Sutra-5-Education-Devdutt

Telecast first on June 5 CNBC-Tv18

Business Sutra attempts to answer that question through a special series of conversations with well known mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik.

Pattanaik believes that mythological stories along with symbols and rituals are the tools through which our ancestors shared their wisdom, wisdom that is relevant even in modern times.

Business Sutra is an attempt to make the wisdom of mythology accessible and applicable to the corporate world.

Hosted by Menaka Doshi, Business Sutra will, over 4-5 episodes, discuss the purpose of a corporation, short term goals versus long term ideals, leadership qualities, dharma sankat and modern day business conflicts, ownership versus management, the lifecycle of a business and similar issues pertaining to Leadership & Governance.

Why do the
Left and Right Wing both
love Devdutt?
