The health of business is inextricably linked with the health of humanity and nature. But our current approaches to leadership treat business as entirely separate-and the result has been recurring economic, environmental, and humancrises. In this extraordinary book, Ram Nidumolu uses evocative parables and stories from the ancient Indian wisdom texts, the Upanishads, to introduce Being-centered leadership. This new kind of leadership is anchored in the concept of Being, the fundamental reality that underlies all phenomena. Being centered leaders are guided by an innate sense of interconnection-the good of the whole becomes an integral part of their decisions and actions. Using the experiences of over twenty trailblazing CEOs, as well as those from his own life, Nidumolu describes a four-stage road map every aspiring leader can use to reconnect business to the wider world-to the benefit of all. But this is a book meant to inspire, not prescribe. Nidumoludoesn't offer a specific, step-by-step set of instructions. Rather, he offers leaders advice, encouragement, examples, and inspiration as they make their way from the lower branches of the tree to the highest." This charming, deftly written, highly readable book is one of the best examples of how to give moral purpose to business life. By artfully weaving together ancient and contemporary stories, Nidumolu creates a compelling narrative and helps to unlock one of the most important issues facing business today. It is also a reminder that story telling is the best way to teach and why India is one of the world's greatest story telling cultures." - Gurcharan Das, Author of India Grows at Night and The Difficulty of Being Good.“Two Birds in a Tree shares two fundamental messages to businesses, leaders and individuals alike. First is the fact that we reap what we sow - in business and in life. Second, businesses, leaders and individuals alike have an implicit social contract to give back to the society from which we take so much. Ram Nidumolu puts across his views well by blending wisdom from the Indian Upanishads and anecdotes from business best practices. A good read.” - N. R.
