A Brand New Global Discipline: Excenomics
Chapter I
SHIFTING THE PARADIGMS FROM EXISTENCE TO EXCELLENCE:
A UNIFIED AND HOLISTIC THEORY OF EXISTENCE FOR INDIVIDUALS AS FOR ORGANISATIONS
This book is one of the first attempts in management theory where individual theory and organizational theory are integrated in the same conceptual framework.

How does one use what he/she learns in order to advance his/her life and that of others around him/her-this is the thrust of Excenomics. The study of Excenomics would also lead to an enhanced rate of creativity, productivity, and economic development.
In the first fifteen years to twenty five years of an individual’s life, much of the time and energy is spent in accumulating a mass of redundant information. For...
