Leadership subject at AGSB is an Ateneo advantage. It emphasizes leadership from within, authentic leadership. One of its pillars is love. This is odd in a cold steely corporate world. The others are heroism, ingenuity and self awareness. The goal of leadership is not only to develop oneself but to clone other leaders. Everybody has potential to be leader. What we do, even if we do not have followers influences/affects others. It is time to define Filipino leadership too

Maahatma gandhi was a good spiritual and political leader. He was able to change and stuggle thru "ahimsa" fighting thru use of non violence. This is an unconventional one which became known to the world wherein you can do something out of nothing forhe benefit of the populace. This outfaced other mode of stuggles which will remain in history.
ReplyDeleteThanks Leader Renato. They used this at EDSA reb 1 to defuse tension between the tank and the masses of people. It did not work in China at Tiananmen square.
DeleteGandhi was a seeker of the truth. In India he is greatly known as the "Father of the Nation" and he always wanted to share his knowledge to his people. He was a great communicator, in fact, the people would feel his powerful words as if they were the only people he really wanted to speak with. In other words, he can make an impact in another person's life. His great aim in life was to have a vision of God thus making him a perfect spiritual leader. He employed non-violent principles and peaceful disobedience that influenced the world. He is a true inspiration for his nonviolent philosophy of passive resistance.
ReplyDeleteWe must all strive to be good communicators as we did in CTA. You must sharpen the saw, your power to influence others with words. Thus it was an important event, with rewards, and wide publicity
ReplyDeleteGhandi is a great leader through his advocacy on non-violence. What really attracts me in this movie is the scene on Ghandi's fasting. Where he draws more followers and he resolve conflicts through that.
ReplyDeleteGandhi is one of the few leaders of the world who listens intently to then people. This is important in any leadership role. As mentioned we as leaders must understand the we are bound to be surpassed, the strong may weaken the wise may err. It is amazing as high his position of leadership is, he is that he is able to stop speaking and open himself to quietly listen.
ReplyDeleteI remember a quote whil reading might be good to share
ReplyDeleteVision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just passes the time. Vision with action can change the world. joel a barker
