Niccolo Machiavelli (3 May 1469 - 21 June 1527) was a Renaissance Italian Ambassador, Writer, Philosopher, Historian, and Political Activist. His collection of political essays, written in 1513, is very popular but was not published until 1532. He has been called the father of 'Modern Political Philosophy and Political Science'.
The book 'The Prince' contains many ideas related to politics and governance. It focuses on creating a new kingdom (in contemporary context Startups/new Companies). In order to retain power, the interests of the various institutions must be carefully balanced. On the contrary, a new king has a very difficult task of ruling. He must first secure his new power in order to build a lasting political framework. Machiavelli has realized that in the face of moral corruption one can achieve social good and security. Machiavelli made it clear that public social morality and individual morality should be understood differently. As a result, a ruler must realize that he has to work hard to maintain a good reputation but is also prepared to act tactfully at the right time.
Principles from 'The Prince' by Machiavelli are applicable even today and address critical strategy and management topics on governance.
