Abstract :
Background:
In the dynamic and demanding field of
management, the development of a well-rounded
personality is essential for effective leadership, conflict
resolution, and self-awareness, ultimately contributing to
career success. Yoga, with its ancient roots in fostering
holistic development, holds promise as a tool for
enhancing the personality traits of managers.Objective:
This study aims to evaluate the impact of an
Evidence-Based Yoga Module (EBYM) on the
personality traits (Guna) of managers, focusing on the
dimensions of Tamas, Rajas, and Sattva.Materials and Methods:
A cohort of 72 managers, representing a mean age
of 48.75±3.86 years, drawn from Oil and Natural Gas
Corporation Limited, participated in a single-group pre-
post study. The Personality Inventory (PI) data was
collected both before (pre) and after (post) a five-day
EBYM.Statistical Analysis:
The data analysis employed means, standard
deviations, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, and the
Wilcoxon signed-rank test, facilitated by SPSS 16.Conclusion:
This study underscores the potential of EBYM as a
catalyst for enhancing the Sattva Guna, signifying
balanced personality development, among managers.
These findings imply that the integration of yoga
practices can contribute significantly to enhancing
managerial performance within an organization.
