ABSTRACT
This final chapter first focuses on the divergent pulls of the two perspectives as conceptualized in the earlier chapter on the Indian manager today. It stresses on the need to integrate the two as opposed to splitting, and how this would impact challenges and concerns that manifest both at the individual and the systemic level. It offers an understanding of the challenges that the individual and the system face today, as well as offers ideas and new practices that would bring about the co-holding of P1 and P2. Some of the key challenges manifesting at the individual level include the exercising of agency and dealing with differences. At the systemic level, the challenges include confronting the preoccupation with only the tangible dimensions of the system, a lack of ownership and dominant masculinity that bring in stress without any replenishment. It offers ideas, perspectives and invites the reader to explore new ways of looking at the phenomena when it comes to co-holding P1 and P2.
