Brigadier Parmodh Sarin retired from the Army on 1st April 1997 after approximately 34 years of service. He served in the Army Ordinance Corps where, in addition to officers and men in uniform, almost 1 lakh industrial and non-industrial workforce is employed. At the time of his retirement, he was heading a Rs. 70 crore Ministry off Defence project on Inventory Automation. He qualified on the “long Defence Management Course” (LDMC) at the “College of Defence Management Secunderabad” in 1989. He also holds a Post Graduate Diploma in Material Management. His book, “Military Logistics-The Third Dimension” (A Manas Publications) has been universally accepted as an exhaustive treatise of the subject. The Government of India procured this book for almost one hundred universities in the country. After writing the third volume of the “History of Army Ordinance Corps”, he undertook the present work on the intricacies and challenges of leadership in the modern world. His focus has been training and grooming of junior leaders (both in Military and Industry) who find the present environment not conducive to the ‘Values Structure’ they are expected to live up to with the seniors not always setting appropriate example. Brigadier Sarin conducts HRD, Logistics and Project Management capsules for a wide spectrum of Management Institutions.

Jagdish Mitter Sarin (1915-1971), an M.A. in History from the Punjab University Lahore was working on a book at the time of his death entitled 'History of Freedom Movement from 1909 to 1920'. During the course of his research in addition to going through papers and documents held in various archives and libraries, he also interacted with some of those veterans who were actually involved in some of the epoch-making events. His son, Brigadier Parmodh Sarin undertook the task of giving shape to the unfinished work of his father, but taking the subject to the logical conclusion-up to the year 1947.
