Devotee & Successful Leaders!
In one Harvard study on the top qualities of a Corporate Leaders, two things came out on Top
1. Humility: Which is ability to acknowledge one's shortcomings and work on that for improvement
Real humility is not to think about yourself badly but not to think of yourself at all. A humble person has high self-esteem too because he considers himself as a servant of the Supreme Lord Krsna
2. Compassion: Not to be too heavy on other people's faults
So a successful leader is hard as a thunderbolt & soft as a rose. And, most of the time he is a thunderbolt on himself & a rose on others and in his dealings
These are also top two qualities of the devotee of the Supreme Lord.
Krsna says in Bhagvad Gita about the 26 qualities of his devotee:
amanitvam adambhitvam ahimsa ksantir arjavam
acaryopasanam saucam sthairyam atma-vinigrahah
indriyarthesu vairagyam anahankara eva ca
janma-mrtyu-jara-vyadhi-duhkha-dosanudarsanam
asaktir anabhisvangah putra-dara-grhadisu
nityam ca sama-cittatvam istanistopapattisu
mayi cananya-yogena bhaktir avyabhicarini
vivikta-desa-sevitvam aratir jana-samsadi
adhyatma-jnana-nityatvam tattva-jnanartha-darsanam
etaj jnanam iti proktam ajnanam yad ato 'nyatha
Humility, pride-lessness, nonviolence, tolerance, simplicity, approaching a bona fide spiritual master, cleanliness, steadiness and self-control ; renunciation of the objects of sense gratification, absence of false ego, the perception of the evil of birth, death, old age and disease; nonattachment to children, wife, home and the rest, and even-mindedness amid pleasant and unpleasant events; constant and unalloyed devotion to Me, resorting to solitary places, detachment from the general mass of people; accepting the importance of self-realization, and philosophical search for the Absolute Truth-all these I thus declare to be knowledge, and what is contrary to these is ignorance
So a devotee has these natural qualities and can be a perfect leader.
Love of GOD manifests in this world as compassion
If you are giving, you are forgiving
If you are getting, you are forgetting
Do become a Vaishnava, a pure devotee of Krsna and you'll become a true leader
