Abstract

In this paper, we aim to discuss the essence of the concept of conscious leadership, highlighting the necessity as well as the relevance of engaging in conscious leadership as a way of addressing the modern business environment. Conscious leadership is introduced as the set of key concepts and features that are relevant to leadership today, supported by historical knowledge and modern findings. Atma Bodha (self-knowledge), Atma Chintan (self-contemplation), and Atma Manthan (self-churning) are essential components, as are the 7 A’s of conscious leadership: awake, aware, alive, alert, adaptable, accountable, and authentic. Reflective questions (RQs) serve as powerful tools for self-discovery, introspection, and critical thinking, leading to significant growth both personally and professionally. The study shows that conscious leadership promotes personal development, ethical decision-making, and collaborative teamwork. By embracing proactivity, problem-solving, and conflict management, leaders can effectively navigate challenges in today's business environment, leading to positive long-term organizational outcomes. Thus, this paper contributes to the construction of more enhanced leadership programs by establishing a clear outline of the path of conscious leadership.
