Guest guest Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 Swami! What are the qualities of a leader? Sai Baba: There are mainly two qualities that every leader must possess. Since these are missing, we don't have good and ideal leaders today. Eventually we find disturbances, agitations, and tensions everywhere. These two qualities are `Individual Character' and `National Character'. In the past this country had leaders possessing these two qualities, leaders such as Tilak, Netaji, and Patel, and so on. You can't just call anyone a leader unless he possesses `Individual Character " . A leader should lead, but not push from behind. A true follower becomes a good leader later on. Without being a servant; you can't be an ideal master. Every leader must always remember this, `first be', `then do', and `then tell'. First, you must `be' what you `profess', and `do' what you `profess'. Then you will have the right to `tell'. By doing good, an ideal leader tells others to be good. This is why I often tell my students, " Be good, Do good, and See good " . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
