Evolution of leadership – “Leadership by Consciousness”
It is a real privilege for me to be here at the Sri Aurobindo Society and spend the day with you. I have been asked to share thoughts on evolution of leadership. I feel very humbled by this ask as I am a mere student in this field not a learned master. I will attempt my best to share with you some of my experiences in leadership over the past 25 years and what I have learned from them. -
Leadership by Consciousness
For a long time, the art of management was based primarily on the development of various skills, measured in terms of some hard bottom line indicators like productivity, efficiency, profit, wealth creation or shareholder value and, to some extent, on softer values like customer service, quality, social responsibility and creativity. Times have changed. These are important but no longer sufficient. -
Conscious Caring
The Mother wants that the people responsible for receiving the visitors should always be very polite and gentle in their behaviour towards them. High and low, young and old, whether they are well-dressed or ill-clad, all should always be received properly with benevolence and good behaviour. -
Governance by Inner Consciousness
Ever since the dawn of human civilization, the Mind of Men has been dreaming of a perfect society. In its search the humanity has reached the day where we are living in an industrial and commercial globalism led by multinational corporations and propelled by an increasingly efficient and sophisticated ‘management’ and technology, especially ‘information technology’. Experience tells us that these are means of temporary success not an assurance of perfect society.
