Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions Minister Dr Jitendra Singh was on Sunday presented a book on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “leadership legacy” written by noted intellectual and author Dr R Balasubramaniam.
Dr Balasubramaniam is former Rhodes Professor at Cornell University, USA, and is at present serving as Member HR at the Capacity Building Commission, Government of India.
The book, “Power Within: The Leadership Legacy of Narendra Modi”, captures the prime minister’s leadership journey and interprets it through Western and Indic lenses, amalgamating them to provide a roadmap for those who aspire to a life of public service.
The writer has authored nine books in the past, some of which like “Voices From The Grassroots’ and “Leadership Lessons For Daily Living” are globally acclaimed.
The book, “Power Within: The Leadership Legacy of Narendra Modi,” is inspired by the ‘exercise of leadership’. It introspects this practice as it captures the civilisational wisdom of Bharat through the lived experience of Mr Modi.
Colleagues within the Cabinet and outside the Cabinet have shed light on how his relentless hard work and communicative approach propelled him to the Prime Ministerial post.
There are also opinions and anecdotes recorded by prominent persons from different walks of life including Intelligentsia, academia, the corporate world and thinkers of international repute.
Dr Jitendra Singh said the book is indeed the signature and chronicle of Modi’s times and underscores Modi’s resolve to position India as a pivotal player on the global stage.
Describing it as one of the earliest and most authentic records of different contours of Indian leadership in the context of the Prime Minister, he said it is in fact a case study and predicted that future researchers will find it as a handy document for reference.
