Description

In today’s fast-paced world, I’ve noticed something troubling—people seem more stressed than focused, more reactive than reflective. As I moved through my own leadership journey, I encountered moments that tested not just my skills, but my mindset. And in those moments, I didn’t always rely on frameworks or formulas. I relied on calm. On clarity. On intuition.
That’s what Chill But Principled is about.
It’s not another book filled with models and acronyms. It’s a collection of stories from my life and leadership experiences—raw, honest, and deeply personal. Each one taught me something about leadership, not as a title, but as a way of being.
I wrote this for the quiet thinkers, the empathetic doers, and the intentional leaders who may not see themselves as “natural” leaders but lead with heart and purpose.
If you’ve ever wondered whether leadership is for you…
If you’ve ever felt invisible in a room full of loud voices…
If you’ve ever led with empathy instead of ego…
Then this book is for you.
Leadership isn’t rocket science. It’s about how you handle situations. How you treat people. How you show up when it matters.
And maybe, just maybe, you’ll see that you’ve been a leader all along.

About the Author

Bala Rajamanickam is an engineer and project leader who began his journey in a small village in Tamil Nadu and went on to work with diverse organizations across several countries. His professional path has taken him through a range of cultures, challenges, and teams — shaping not just his career, but also his philosophy on leadership
A passionate reader of books across genres, Bala believes that leadership is not something confined to textbooks or management jargon. Instead of relying on complex frameworks or academic models, he chose to write from the heart — capturing real-life lessons, team moments, and stories that worked for him during his leadership journey.

Through this book, Bala hopes to inspire others to lead with empathy, purpose, and authenticity. His goal isn’t to conform to traditional formats or to please every reader — but to share what worked in the messy, real-world trenches of leadership. This is not a manual. It’s a mirror — reflecting both the calm and chaos of being a leader, and the invisible principles that guide great teams forward

Leading with Heart and Principle

I truly appreciate the effort and insight that went into writing this book.
I’m proud to see a friend and colleague bring such authenticity and heart to the conversation around leadership.
What makes this book stand out is its honest storytelling. Each chapter feels like a conversation with a thoughtful mentor who’s been through the trenches and emerged with wisdom, not ego. The stories are relatable, especially for those of us who lead quietly, with empathy and intention rather than bravado.
As someone working in a technical field, I found the book especially relevant—it reminded me that leadership isn’t about titles or volume, but about how we show up when it matters. Whether you're a seasoned leader or someone just beginning to explore your leadership style, this book offers gentle but powerful insights that stay with you.
Congratulations again on this achievement. I’m excited to see how this book influences others in our field!
