3.Setting goals.
Mahabharata was the biggest battle in
ancient India between Pandavas and
Kauravas, and had each and every other
king/ruler fighting from either of the
sides.
Duryodhana representing Kauravas and Arjuna representing Pandavas, reached
at nearly the same time to Krishna for calling him to fight from their side.
Krishna asked them to choose between him and his complete army. Since he
alone was capable of destroying the world, leave alone the opponent, he would
not raise arms and play a non-combatant role. Arjuna choose to have him and
Duryodhana was happy to have gained his mighty army.
the INBORN QUALITIES ARE…
Stick on the goal
Motivational skills
Effective strategies
Leadership qualities
Direction and controlling
1.STICK ON A GOAL
Krishna had three 3 clear cut goals that he followed and achieved 100% targets.
1.Paritrayana sadhunaam ---- welfare for
saints…
2.Vinashaya Dushkritaam----- Destroy evil
3.Dharmasansthapanaay sambhavani yuge
yuge……
To establish and strengthen religion
in every era.
2.MOTIVATIONAL SKILLS
When Arjun reached the battle field he loose his determination to fight …
He saw that among the opponents were many of his relatives young and old and that he was going to kill them for the sake of Kingdom.
He resisted from fighting and dropped arms.
Lord Krishna motivated him by his speech which was later named “BHAGWAT GITA” that’s still read and followed. Arjun recovered and decided to fight.
EFFECTIVE STRATEGIES
Manager should have skills to build strategies to achieve target
Pandavas and Kauravas had soldiers and warriors strength in the ratio of 7:11,
Pandavas and Kauravas having 1.53 millions and 2.41 millions. With this count it was clear that the battle could be won only with Effective Strategies.
The fact that Pandavas won the battle proves that Krishna was successful not only in building strategies but in implementing them to achieve success.
LEADERSHIP QUALITY
1.When Krishna asked Arjuna and Duryodhana to choose between him and his army, the choice was, in fact, between a Leader and his Resources.
2.While a Good Leader can gain from limited resources, a Bad Leader will loose even with vast resources. Knowing his excellent Leadership Qualities,
3.Arjuna requested Krishna not only to lead the entire mission but to personally lead him by accepting to be his “Saarthi” (Charioteer), guide him and lead him to success.
DIRECTION AND CONTROLLING
Controlling an army of 1.53 million soldiers and warriors to fight against a bigger army was not an easy task.
The 1.53 million soldiers were divided in
seven divisions, led by a Commander each,
further controlled by a Supreme
Commander who himself was guided by the
Pandavas and Krishna.
Conclusion1.Agreed that Lord Krishna was ‘God’ and
almighty and that he could have done the task himself without involving a single person.
2.But the Battle of Mahabharat had him in a non-combatant role and that the Pandavas won the battle is due to his extra-ordinary Managerial Qualities achieving 100% target.
3.And thus, we can call him the GREATEST
MANGER in the World.
