Different individuals, different situations...leading to different dilemmas and conflicts. Decision making is all about analysing consequences and choosing one path when you are at the crossroads. Dronacharya at the Workplace relates conflicts at the workplace to incidents from the Mahabharata seeking solutions "Meghdoot has a unique way of storytelling.

The author, Meghdoot Karnik, has made a great attempt at writing this book as it is not a regular self-help book about the work or business life, but it details the situation out with explanations and situations from the Mahabharata itself. As the author mentions in the book, "Take any situation in regular life, and you will find it in the Mahabharata.", the stories written by him prove the same. The book has 8 stories in all, which talk about different problems, difficulties, decision making dilemma in one's corporate life and when the characters of the stories cannot in a fix, the situation is related to a similar one from the Mahabharata and a probable solution is being explored.
If you have already read the Mahabharata, DRONACHARYA At The Workplace And Other Short Stories will definitely be an interesting perspective and a read for you. I will recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the reading comparative mythology, remember this is not a regular self-help book, though it classifies as one, but a book that will help you discover the invisible thought power of the Indian epic, Mahabharata.
Exceptionally written with lots of insights into both the Mahabharata and its personalities with day to day work life balance questions that one may face in one's life.
