Annotation: "There are two birds, two sweet friends, who dwell in the selfsame tree," says the ancient Indian scripture, the Upanishads. The first bird, dwelling on the lower part of the tree, is unable to see beyond the branches and compulsively indulges its appetites. The other bird, higher up, sees the wider world. Ram Nidumolu's provocative book on business leadership uses this allegory to highlight why many businesses are distrusted by the public and contribute to a variety of social ills. But can business, compassion, and stewardship coexist? Ram's surprising insight is to hearken back to the earliest Indian philosophical texts to reclaim their lessons.
