Managerial Skill What's your managerial style: like Lord Ram or Lord Krishna? In Hindu mythology there are two great epics. One is called Ramayan and other is called Mahabharat. The center story of both these books is around victory of good on evil. In one story Lord Ram leads army to defeat Ravana in his land, while in the second Lord Krishna oversees Pandavas defeat Kauravas in the ba le of Kurukshetra. In Ramayana, Lord Ram is the best yodhaa of his side. He leads his army from the front. Strategies & directs different people to do things which will meet the objec ves. His people are happy to follow orders & want to get all the apprecia on for being the best executors. Lord Ram set direc on & also tells people what to do during difficult mes. Ul mately they won the war & the final outcome was achieved. On the other hand Lord Krishna told Arjuna, I won't fight the ba le. I won't pick up any weapon; I would be there on your chariot as a charioteer. And he did what he said. He never picked up the weapon & he never fought.

AG Narendra Bakhale

Here are some of the basic differences in two styles: Lord ram – A skilled warrior, lead monkeys, was emo onal, gave precise roles & instruc ons, mo vated the army to fight for his cause; Lord Krishna – works with best the professionals, provides strategic clarity, allows team members to take lead, fights for the cause of the team, did not depict his true emo ons. Look at your team/ family & reflect what type of leader/ parent you are. One who keeps answering/ solving problems for people/ kids Or who asks relevant ques ons from their people/ kids so that they can find their own solu on. Are you someone who tells/ directs all the me or someone who clarifies doubts & allows their people/ kids to find their own ways. Are you someone who has monkeys in the team & the way you deal with it. Or you have the brightest experts in their area ge ng stuck with issues?

S ll, pandavas won the war & final outcome was achieved. So, what was different? It was their managerial style & it was also the type of people who were being lead. Lord ram was leading army of 'MONKEYS' who were not skilled fighter & they were looking for direc on. While on other hand, Lord Krishna was leading Arjuna who was one of the best archer of his me. While Lord ram's role was to show it & lead from the front. Krishna played the role of a coach whose job was to remove cobwebs from his protegee's mind. Krishna couldn't teach Arjuna archery but he could definitely help him see things from a very different perspec ve.

Younger genera on doesn't want you to tell or show how things are done, they want to know the meaning of their task and how it makes a diﬀerence in this world. They are Arjuna's who don't necessarily seek more skill/ knowledge but they need someone to clarify the cobwebs in their mind, if you s ll apply Lord ram's style on them, you bound to fail as manager. On the other hand if there are people who aren't skilled enough but rely on your exper se to sail you through appropriate. Isn't good for us to reﬂect & think what managerial style will bring the best result for you and your team/ family? Is it Lord Ram or Lord Krishna?

Report about the Youth Seminary On Sunday, 13th of September, me and all the other exchange students had been on the Youth Seminary in Panvel. There were many Rotarians, interactors, rotaractors and rotexes present, including members of my host club: Pune Kothrud. In the seminar, we had very nice lectures about the new genera ons of Rotary Internacional, such as the earlyact clubs and exchange students. The RYE students had the opportunity to perform a typical dance and a Marathi drama about one of Shivaji's stories.We also had host families sharing experiences and nice debates about the future and par cipa on of the earlyact clubs. It was very nice for me, to be able to see how strong Rotary is and how worried they are about our youthness. Warm Regards, Malu Menani (Brazil)
