Abstract: Vedic management refers to the usage of the knowledge and the invaluable insights as one finds in the ancient Indian scriptures popularly known as Vedas. The knowledge which is to be found in the Vedas is of supreme authority despite being ancient. In fact the veracity of such knowledge has never been more than in the present ages when everything is in the state of constant change. Vedic management precisely deals with such ever-changing scenario in much better manner than many of the so-called modern methods of management. The inscriptions of the Vedas are a school of thought in themselves and when one delves into them much deeper then they leave no doubt in the mind of the seeker that they have answers to all their questions, explicit as well as implicit. The knowledge one gets in the Vedas is esoteric in nature, nevertheless it helps in grasping the significance of the circumstances which one faces in the changing scenario of today’s world and more than readies one to face them. The Vedas recognize the importance of the dynamism of the world and its dynamic environment. This paper tries to put into perspective various Vedic concepts which have proven their worth over the course of time as to how one can successfully adjust to and even anticipate change in one’s life, both professional and personal (Londhe, 2018). The Vedic literature propagates emancipation of the mankind, both physical as well as spiritual. The paper tries to relate the Vedas with the modern business management principles and practices. This paper goes on to highlight how one can benefit immensely be practicing the various Vedic concepts to come out of the changing paradigms in a never-before way. This is made possible because of the veracity of the Vedas, because of the simple fact that Vedas have been an incessant source of wisdom and sagacity which has withstood every test of time and which has proven, time and again, that no matter how old the knowledge is, what matters is how good a person is in interpreting and utilizing it. Thus, the Vedas encourage one to face the unknown facets of life, howsoever difficult they are, with much ease and assuredness and that is the theme of this paper which would put together the significance of Vedic Management and its subsequent impact of managing change in today’s world of clutter, confusion, chaos and competition.
