GROUP DHARMAS
The Upanishads, or the summation of The Vedas are ancient Indian scriptures that date back to the 4th century B.C. They describe various 'Dharmas' which means - something established or firm that forms the basis for philosophies, beliefs and practices originating in.
Across Leela properties in India, we practice the eight 'Leela Dharmas'.
A doctrine of duties and simple virtues which are to be followed by each individual employee. Derived from the deep rooted Indian tradition of hospitality 'Atithi Devo Bhava' ( Guest is God as translated from Taittiiya Upanishad), these Dharmas stand for what the Leela Group firmly believes in. Principles that orient our key employees and form the foundation of our code of conduct - with the organization, towards each other and with our most cherished heritage, our guests.
PRATHAMA DHARMA
As an integral part of the Leela Group, this will be our primary dharma. No matter what role we perform as team members, we shall place the guests first and foremost, the organization second, and the self last, while performing our duties to the finest standards.
DVITIYA DHARMA
Everything we do shall be laced with courtesy and consideration for others and the highest standards - whether qualitative, ethical, intellectual, social, monetary or moral.
TRITIYA DHARMA
It shall be our constant endeavour to understand, anticipate and satisfy the needs of our guests with warmth and attention to detail; apart from maintaining excellence, aesthetics, style and the utmost regard for comfort and privacy.
CHATURTHA DHARMA
Trust and team spirit will be the foundation stones upon which we raise our company's future and success. The taller we grow, the deeper we shall attempt to cultivate these virtues.
PANCHAMI DHARMA
We shall be fearless in performing our duties with conviction and pride, while seeking constructive feedback and dissent in order to enhance our standards. We shall adhere to industry standards of quality and certification and constantly strive to outperform ourselves.
SASHTI DHARMA
We respect each other as much as we cherish our guests. We are not an organization of employees, we see ourselves as a company of stars. Here, every employee is rewarded on an individual basis, in terms of stellar achievements as well as personal growth.
SAPTAMI DHARMA
Like Mother Nature, we seek to nurture and protect. In all aspects of business, we shall diligently safeguard the wellbeing, safety and security of our guests, co-workers, as well as our corporate assets and environment.
ASHTHAMI DHARMA
We believe in the dharma of fairness. While we may encounter challenges, we shall never forsake the establishment of a healthy code of conduct or adopt practices influenced by personal preferences or prejudices.
