LEADERSHIP FUNDASIt is better to have an army of rabbits led by a lion than a army of lion led by a rabbit.- NEPOLIAN

THIS DEFINES THAT “Leadership is an art (not science) of influencing, motivating, inspiring, and transforming people (human resources) towards achieving organizational goals”.

Bass & Avolio (1994) states that there two types of leadership; Transactional Leadership and Transformational Leadership.

 Transactional leaders are leaders who guide or motivate their followers in the direction of established goals by clarifying role and task requirements. WHILE Transformational leaders are leaders who provide individualized consideration and intellectual stimulation and possess charismTransformational leadership is not a substitute for transactional leadership; it is an enhancement. So focussing the transformational leadership.

TRAITS OF A TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERS

1. Transformational leaders are visionaries – Sri Rama created future vision for Ayodhya and the vision was clearly communicated to the people of Ayodhya before leaving to the forest.

2. Transformational leaders are change agents - Sri Rama changed the kingship of Kiskhinda from Bali to Sugriva and the kingship of Lanka.

3. Transformational leaders - are courageous people. Sri Rama was firm and brave to take all the risk to protect the words his father (King Dasaratha) gave to Kaikeyi.

4. Transformational leaders believe in people - Sri Rama had complete trust and believes in Sugriva to recover Sita.

6. Transformational leaders are life long learners - Sri Rama, a perfect example of life of learner.

7. Transformational leaders have the ability to deal with complexity, ambiguity and uncertainty - Sri Rama had to make the painful decision to banish Sita from Ayodhya.

MANAGEMENT LESSON EXAMPLE FROM RAMAYANA

One of the most obvious incidences, in which use of management principles is very clearly visible is that of Hanuman going to Lanka.

His mission was to locate Sita there and give her Lord Ram’s message. When it became clear that Sita was in Lanka, Jamvant asked Hanuman to go there. He helped him in realizing his true potential and motivated him to go in the enemy’s camp.

Once mentally prepared for the job and reached there, first thing which Hanuman did was to completely analyze the situation in Lanka. He did a complete study about the Lankans, assessing their strengths and weaknesses, the various threats and opportunities which he had in the enemy’s camp.

TRENDING WOMEN STATUS

• Scriptural women (Devi Sita) was ideal daughter, ideal wife, ideal mother

• She had a silent power of suffering and sacrifice.• Sita swayamvara.• Renounced the comfort of ayodhya.• Abduction by ravana.• Sita held captive in ashokvan.• Sita doubted for her chastity.• Sita’s agni pariksha• Sita undergone ordeal to site off an exile• Finally she return to her mother “Bhoomidevi”

Status of women in RAMAYANA:

Page 11: "Ramayana" The Management Guru

Current status of women has IMPROVED dramatically

Visualizing the status of women in scripture women were always been lead for suffering, devotion and sacrifices all her life

But currently the status of women are far been changed. Constitution of India has feeded them with lots many power, to

reduce their sufferings and sacrifices. They are been compared equal to man now. Are provided first priority in every field to express their

qualities. Are provided many reservation to survive independently on

their own will.

CONCLUSIONNever make promise, once you make promise never break it.

Leadership, communication power, Team work, Innovation, devotion and loyalty.

Never step back to avoid risk because you can’t avoid them. But take them as challenges they make you strong.

Appreciate people for their work neither it is small or large. You need not to pay anything to talk good to somebody.

Try to learn good lessons even from your enemies.

Always respect the women.
