Shivaji The Management Guru Ppt Jun 2026

"Good morning/afternoon everyone. When we think of management gurus, we often think of Peter Drucker or modern CEOs. Today, I want to take you back to the 17th century to explore the life of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj—not just as a warrior king, but as a visionary leader who practiced modern management theories centuries before they were written in textbooks."

Instead of engaging in direct, conventional warfare where he would be at a disadvantage, Shivaji pioneered Ganimi Kava , a form of asymmetrical warfare. In modern terms, this is the "Blue Ocean Strategy" – creating a new, uncontested market space rather than competing head-on. shivaji the management guru ppt
