Spandan and the Integral Development of the Human Person: Indian Insights, Experiences and Experiments

This paper addresses the issue of dehumanization in the workplace and attempts to offer directions to restore the balance between ‘results’ and ‘relations’ in organizations: The author has drawn inspiration from the classical Indian concept of spandan (vibration) and translates it into actionable values for integral development of the human being at three levels—interpersonal, institutional and cosmic. Using insights from empirical work done in Indian organizations, the author advocates a maternalistic style of management based on human values against the backdrop of an overaching unitarian (advaita) philosophy for evolving holistic management principles and practices in future.
