This book offers an overview of competencies expected of an individual, illustrated through the past journeys of a Bodhisatta as narrated in the Jatakas. It explores the art of management practiced by a Bodhisatta, blending wisdom and compassion to address diverse situations. Covering 61 selected Jatakas, it presents principles and norms in governance and jurisprudence that showcase the abilities, skills, and knowledge required for wise, beneficial decision-making. While modern jurisprudence is codified and precise, the Jataka approach is abstract, emphasizing situational norms and principles. In today’s Human Resource Management, understanding, mapping, and developing competencies is key to achieving benchmark performance. The Bodhisatta’s insights on leadership, royal duties, trainer attributes, and judicial impartiality continue to inspire humanity toward greater objectives.
