Leadership qualities - Indian Captain Dhoni and the recent success of Indian Cricket team - an exmaple.

Many talk and listen about the leadership qualities and we can find many books on leadership qualities. But, I feel that we can learn manythings from the recent victories of Indian Cricket Team and the manner in which Mahendra Singh Dhoni led the team. The manner in which Mahendra Singh Dhoni has led the team can be seen from his words in the felicitation function yesterday after the match was over. What Mahendra singh Dhoni said was:

     1.  Reamarkably, bowlers performed well. 

     2.  Shewag and sachin played well.

     3.  It was a team effort.

     From the reference from point no.1, we can understand that Dhoni concentrates on bowling which is not the Indian teams strength and the strength can be improved only by motivation and encouragement and he is only doing that.

    By praising shewag and sachin, he is simply referred to the good knocks and it should be there to complete the narration, but, it is to be noticed that Dhoni praised bowling well than the batting from shewag and sachin.

    By saying that its a team effort and by not concentrating on the Ravi's reference to Dhoni's judgment, Dhoni emphasizing on the team effort and leading the team as a captain.

   Really, alot can be learn from this  simple things and many may not disagree with me on this.

   Again, if we see the success story of Indian cricket team recently, its really a team effort and the result of competition. Earlier, we have very good players and they have reputation worldwide. We have seen sachin, azar, jadeja, dravid, laxman and many who are recognized worldwide. But, still, there was less success than what Indian team is achieving today. Today, we can see many young players and all performing well.  From this, we can learn that individual success can't guarantee the team's success and healthy competition will always be good.
