The Dalai Lama on Leadership, Compassion and Mindfullness

August 3, 2019 by manshu Leave a Comment

I really enjoyed reading this article written by The Dalai Lama, and featured in HBR which talks about leadership, and compassion, and especially the last part about the three types of leaders described in the Buddhist tradition:

Buddhist tradition describes three styles of compassionate leadership: the trailblazer, who leads from the front, takes risks, and sets an example; the ferryman, who accompanies those in his care and shapes the ups and downs of the crossing; and the shepherd, who sees every one of his flock into safety before himself. Three styles, three approaches, but what they have in common is an all-encompassing concern for the welfare of those they lead.
