Riole of Self- Managing Leadership in Crisis Management: An Empirical Study on the Effectiveness of Rajayoga

Crises are common in the modern world and the value system of leaders plays a crucial role in effectively managing
the crises. The role of self-managing leadership in crisis management is explored in this article. An empirical study is
conducted to understand the effectiveness of the ancient self-management technique called Rajayoga. It is based on a
sample survey among two groups—one group not practicing Rajayoga and the other group practicing Rajayoga. It is
found that the inner powers and innate values have a positive correlation with crises management capabilities. Further,
these capabilities and correlations are found to be stronger in a group of people practicing Rajayoga for self empowerment.
The relationship between inner powers and innate values, the interactivity and proactivity among the inner powers,
the relationship between the ‘doing’ powers and the ‘being’ powers are also confirmed through the study.
