An Interview with Author Kuruva Venkataramana Murthy
The Literature Today: What inspired you to write “AI DRIVEN LEADERSHIP” and what does ‘Leading with Dharma’ mean?
Author: I wrote it because AI can automate—but only Dharma can awaken. Leading with Dharma means aligning power with purpose, speed with ethics, and intelligence with humanity.
The Literature Today: How can a traditional leader implement Adapt, Accelerate, Amplify?
Author: Adapt by listening before acting. Accelerate by cutting excuses, not corners. Amplify by letting AI handle the numbers while you deepen trust.
The Literature Today: How do you see intuition and emotional intelligence evolving with AI?
Author: AI gives answers. Intuition gives direction. Emotional intelligence decides when to pause, when to push, and when to protect. Without it, AI is a gun without a trigger.
The Literature Today: How did you merge ancient wisdom with modern ambition for this book?
Author: I stopped treating them as opposites. Wisdom is the compass, ambition is the fuel. Without the compass, ambition burns. Without ambition, wisdom sleeps.
The Literature Today: How does Dharma translate into ethical leadership in AI age?
Author: Dharma means responsibility without excuse. A Dharmic leader ensures AI doesn’t just increase profit, but increases fairness, trust, and long-term value.
The Literature Today: What’s the most common misconception leaders have about AI?
Author: That AI will lead. It won’t. AI is a tool, not a conscience. Leadership is still a human responsibility.
The Literature Today: Example where AI amplified influence, not just operations?
Author: A client company used AI to map employee stress. Instead of punishing underperformers, they redesigned workloads and improved retention by 40%. AI became a mirror, not a whip.
The Literature Today: “Leadership isn’t a title—it’s a movement.” How can leaders ignite it?
Author: Stop talking, start modeling. Share one story of your own failure. When leaders go first, people follow with fire, not fear.
The Literature Today: How does OIU’s vision of bridging spiritual energy and material excellence align with your book?
Author: Both prove one law: profit without healing collapses, healing without profit disappears. Integration is survival.
The Literature Today: What is the single most important advice for overwhelmed leaders?
Author: Don’t chase every change. Anchor in one principle—Dharma. When you know your why, every new technology becomes an ally, not a threat.
