Abstract
Managing an organization is a skilful job. Today, globally operated organizations are faced with numerous challenges. How corporate leaders should approach their obligations is one of the important queries at the desk of business researchers. This paper provides Islamic management model; where leaders first surrender their authorities to ‘divine’ instructions and then gain knowledge and practices from those instructions for a holistic approach to organizational management. Surrendering to ‘divine’ instructions inculcates humility, responsibility and self accountability among organizational leaders to fulfill their duties at their best. Holistic approach to organizational management provides corporate leaders with more options to deal with issues innovatively. This article concludes that Islamic management model is flexible enough to adapt according to the circumstances for maximum outcome of the organization.
Key words: Management, holistic approach, surrender, responsibility, humility, accountability.
