SynopsisDiscover the transformative power of wisdom, courage, and compassion in Enlightened Leadership by Tshering Tobgay, Bhutan's esteemed Prime Minister and TED Talks sensation. Through Bhutan's unique approach to climate change, its peaceful transition to democracy and its administration based on Gross National Happiness, you'll learn from his firsthand experience how these traditional qualities unlock the potential for positive change, unity and powerful action.This book offers invaluable insights into leadership that combines ancient wisdom and modern best practices, blending timeless guidance from the past with today's principles for effective governance. By emphasising the role of selfless service, it vividly recounts how these qualities foster enlightened leadership, and how they have seen Bhutan through a tumultuous past and a present defined by the uncertainty of climate change-- a process that continues to be selflessly led with wisdom, courage and compassion by its revered Kings.
