    This is the story of how the Marathas not only defended themselves against the largest empire of that time- The Mughal Empire, but, over decades of relentless war, leadership transitions, and strategic brilliance, ultimately defeated it. By the mid-18th century, the Marathas had risen to become the most dominant force in India, with the saffron flag rising at the top of Attock Fort in present-day Pakistan near the Afghanistan border to the Ginjee Fort in Tamil Nadu. 
    This book brings ancient battle wisdom to modern world of business, leadership and personal mastery. 
    In the book, I tried relating the key principles of Ganimi Kava from a modern-day corporate perspective. 
    Ganimi Kava, which is sometimes also known as Guerrilla warfare in the West, comprises different tactics used in warfare to completely annihilate much larger resourceful enemies with little force and minimal resources. 
    Ganimi Kava: Guerrilla Warfare Lessons for Modern Executives bridges the worlds of Maratha military brilliance and modern corporate strategy. Drawing from the real-life campaigns of Shivaji Maharaj, Baji Rao Peshwa, Santaji Ghorpade, and Tara Bai, this book uncovers decisive leadership and execution lessons forged in the fires of asymmetric warfare. 
    Through gripping narratives of battles, ambushes, and survival strategies during the 27-Year War against the Mughal Empire, this book distills timeless principles — speed, decentralization, psychological warfare, agility, innovation, and terrain mastery — into practical tools for today’s managers, entrepreneurs, and decision-makers. 
    Whether you're building a startup, leading a transformation, or navigating disruption, this book offers a fresh perspective on how to win when the odds are against you.Blending history, strategy, and leadership wisdom, this is more than a history book — it’s a playbook for bold, resilient, and visionary leadership.

  • The Communal Heart - A Return to Belonging in a World Pulling Us Apart - cover

    The Communal Heart - A Return to...

    Belonging is remembered, together. 
    We are living in a time of profound fragmentation—within ourselves, between one another, and across the very systems meant to hold us together. In the midst of this unraveling, many of us feel the ache for belonging without knowing how to return to it. 
    Beneath this experience lies a deeper crisis, not simply of politics or technology, but of relationship itself. We have become highly skilled at optimizing, managing, and performing. Yet in narrowing our attention toward efficiency and control, we have sacrificed the very presence that allows trust to grow. 
    The Communal Heart offers a different starting point. Rather than prescribing quick fixes or reinforcing familiar self-improvement narratives, this book invites readers into a relational understanding of reality, one rooted in presence, attunement, and the quiet intelligence that emerges when we learn to meet life as it is rather than as we wish it to be. 
    Drawing on clinical experience, neuroscience, and embodied practice, Claudia Dommaschk shows how the divisions we see in today's culture mirror a subtle split within ourselves. As we begin the work of integration, something steadier becomes possible: relationships can withstand tension, communities become grounded in dignity, and a deeper sense of connection takes hold, even in a world pulling us apart. 
    This is not a call to agree more. It is an invitation to relate differently and, in doing so, to remember that belonging has always been there, waiting to welcome us home.

    Trajectory of Power - The Rise...

    In Trajectory of Power, leading political scientists William Howell and Terry Moe provide a sweeping account of the historical rise of presidential power, arguing that it has now grown to the point where, in the wrong hands, it threatens to subvert American democracy and replace it with a de facto system of strongman rule, whether led by Donald Trump or someone else. 
     
     
     
    For much of the twentieth century, Republican and Democratic presidents pursued power in very similar ways and almost always within democratic bounds. But Republican presidents since Ronald Reagan, in a transformation that has grown increasingly extreme over time, have gone beyond the "normal" incentives that have traditionally shaped presidential behavior—and still shape the behavior of Democratic presidents—to pursue a presidency of such expansive unilateral power, and with such disregard for basic democratic requirements, that it puts democracy at serious risk. 
     
     
     
    The book traces this divergence in approach to the backlash of conservatives against the administrative state, and to their epiphany that a war on big government could only be waged through a presidency of extraordinary power. Timely, urgent, and original, Trajectory of Power reveals how the presidency has been profoundly transformed during the modern era—and why it now puts our democracy in imminent danger.
