This post is of special historical significance with KALAGA ‘s tributes to
Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose.
Jai Hind
Of few men known by the title ‘Leader’ next to their name is this freedom fighter. For ‘Netaji’ literally means ‘Leader’.
There are no good leaders and bad leaders. There are only born leaders.
A born leader is one who exhibits leadership characteristics right from childhood. Something as essential as obedience could go a long way in grooming a juvenile to be a functional leader. Obedience and Discipline are the first signs of a budding leader.
Born leaders are born twice. Once as themselves born into the world and next when they have realised that they possess the conviction to lead people. Most born leaders don’t take to being functional leaders simply because they haven’t discerned their own prowess as a leader or rather their lifestyle did not revolve much around leadership.
The second birth is the day of enlightenment where a born leader sees in himself a vast universe of responsibility to a common cause and thus allowing himself the opportunity for training and growth.
Leadership is an intrinsic quality. It can never be learnt or taught. One either has it or doesn’t. However leadership traits could be recognised at an early stage and stimulated to affect one’s awareness of the same . This awareness amounts to one’s second birth as a leader.
How can a bad leader even be a leader? The very word ‘leader’ is implicative of an efficacy in leadership.
A leader has a set objective as his goal to acheived by a stipulated time-frame of action.
His ability to reach out to people should impact the reaching of a common goal in the best interests of progress and welfare.
