With the new age of passion, commitment, creativity, technology and drive among youths, youth manpower is here to stay. In the midst of current trends of globalization and urbanization in India, it is up to the youth intellects to utilize their energy towards business excellence directly influencing the nation’s GDP and growth. Attention of Gen Y job seekers does not prioritize money as their sole job agenda, they also focus on growing as a professional: psychologically, behaviorally and intrinsically. Eupsychian management is a part of theorist Abraham Maslow’s vision to see a time when organizations are managed by self-actualizing people and their zest results in psychologically conducive environments where employees are intrinsically motivated and empowered to achieve organizational goals and make societal contributions. In the current business trend, more and more companies are focusing on employee oriented culture to achieve organizational goals. The present paper aims to elaborate the concept of Eupsychian management and its relevance in Indian business excellence. This concept will be elaborated in two parts: Part I sheds light on the theoretical base and implications. It includes the historical grounds of Maslow’s work on Eupsychian management, assumptions of Eupsychian management policies and its inference on employee psyche and work morale. Part II illuminates applications of Eupsychian management through case studies of Indian companies and its impact on organizational essentials like work ethics, employee engagement, work-life balance, quality of working life, work culture and employee satisfaction. These case studies have been selected on the basis of 2015 survey of employee-friendly organizations by the Economic Times, Business Today and India Times News.","PeriodicalId":228193,"journal":{"name":"Adhyayan: A Journal of Management Sciences","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131615478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This diversity makes it extremely difficult to suitably categorize the country on economic, political, religious or demographical grounds. Post-independence growth has led to overall growth of the country as a whole but it has also divided it into two distinct segments thus providing a suitable basis of categorization in the form of rural India and urban India. As per the census 2001 only 31.16% population of the country lives in urban segment while the rest are still residing in the inherently characteristic rural India. The situation however has changed significantly since independence when around 82% of the total population of the country was dependent for their livelihood on rural sector.\u0000The rural segment is distinct in respect of various features such as purchasing power, economic and infrastructural development, social system and many more. These distinctions relate directly to the kind of divergent demand patterns that the rural sector has in various product segments especially when it comes to financial services. The sector presents a real challenge given its technological backwardness and mass illiteracy as people are still caught in traditional financial systems that are both exploitative and futile. Financial inclusion is the biggest problem in front of the financial system today in rural India and infrastructural bottlenecks are worsening it even further with each passing day. This paper is an attempt to comprehend the significance of Financial Inclusion in the context of a developing country like India wherein a large proportion of population is deprived of the financial services which are very much essential for the overall growth of a country. The paper tries to address the issues relating to access to finance by the poor and vulnerable groups as a prerequisite for poverty reduction, social cohesion and promoting prosperity - reflecting and promoting the true growth story of economically strong India.","PeriodicalId":228193,"journal":{"name":"Adhyayan: A Journal of Management Sciences","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115222164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
