"IN THE INTERDEPENDENT WORLD OF OUR TIME, INDIVIDUALS AND NATIONS ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO SOLVE BY THEMSELVES MANY OF THEIR PROBLEMS. WE NEED EACH OTHER. WE NEED TO DEVELOP A SENSE OF UNIVERSAL RESPONSIBILITY. IT IS OUR COLLECTIVE AND INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT AND NOURISH THE WORLDWIDE FAMILY, TO SUPPORT ITS WEAKER MEMBERS, AND TO PRESERVE AND TAKE CARE OF THE ENVIRONMENT WE LIVE IN."  - THE DALAI LAMA

A leader must know his/her team well. Leadership is efficient only if there is a transparent relationship. The leader must be able to identify every team members' strengths and weaknesses. On knowing this, he/she could make the best use of each of their strengths and can work upon their weaknesses. Once this works out, the team efficiency would reach higher scales.
