What does it take to become a truly exceptional leader in today’s fast-paced, competitive world? Is it enough to simply manage tasks, or is there more to leading a successful team?
In Elevate Your Leadership, Subramaniam P G identifies the hidden gaps that many leaders face—lack of commitment, weak influence, broken trust, and inconsistent growth—and shows how to overcome these barriers. Drawing inspiration from timeless wisdom in the Patanjali Yoga Sutras, this book provides a unique approach that blends ancient principles with modern leadership practices to elevate both your style and your team’s performance.
Address the four core challenges leaders face:
• Inspire Commitment: Create an environment where your team feels emotionally invested in the organization’s mission and inspired to give their best every day.
• Boost Influence: Lead through persuasion rather than power, cultivating a genuine influence that encourages your team to follow you willingly. Navigate complex relationships and build a culture of respect and collaboration.
• Build Trust: Trust is the glue that holds teams together. Create a high-trust environment with openness, transparency, and consistency as the foundation of your leadership.
• Drive Exceptional Growth: Short-term wins are great, but sustained growth is what separates good leaders from great ones. Learn to lead your team through continuous improvement and innovation.
This book connects the eight limbs of the Patanjali Yoga Sutra with key leadership principles, providing a holistic approach to leadership development:
• Yama (Ethical Discipline): Build a strong foundation with non-violence, truth, and ethical behavior.
• Niyama (Personal Discipline): Cultivate resilience through self-control, contentment, and self-study.
• Asana (Postures): Enhance decision-making through physical and mental balance.
• Pranayama (Breath Control): Manage energy and stress, staying composed under pressure.
• Pratyahara (Withdrawal of Senses): Learn to focus and remain unbiased during conflicts.
• Dharana (Concentration): Mindfulness and focus improve emotional intelligence and influence.
• Dhyana (Meditation): Unlock clarity, creativity, and strategic thinking.
• Samadhi (Unity): Align purpose and action for visionary leadership.
Elevate Your Leadership is more than a business book—it’s a blueprint for personal and professional growth. By bridging ancient wisdom and modern demands, Subramaniam P G provides actionable strategies that will help you inspire, influence, and innovate.
