Western thought on leadership is trait-oriented; it emphasizes the importance of 'being a leader'. Indian leadership offers a contrast--it focuses on the 'exercise of leadership'. Power Within introspects on this practice as it captures the civilizational wisdom of Bharat through the lived experience of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The book delves into the fifty years of his public life and explores how he discovered his purpose, the seeds of which were sown in his formative years. Poignant anecdotes from his colleagues shed light on how his relentless hard work and communicative approach propelled him to the prime ministerial post. They also underscore his constant quest for self-discovery in the service of others. In a carefully crafted narrative, R. Balasubramaniam captures Modi's leadership journey and interprets itthrough Western and Indic lenses, amalgamating them to provide a road map for those who aspire to a life of public service.
