About "Is BJP leadership heading for a downfall?" topic:
There is no stemming the blood-letting in BJP. The BJP has been facing one crisis after another following the Lok Sabha election debacle.
Starting with Jaswant Singh's episode: book on Mohammad Ali Jinnah, where Jaswant singh was shown the door. Then a former strategist and BJP ideologue Sudheendra Kulkarni announced his decision to quit the party following ideological differences.
And in the lastest blow to BJP, rebellion by leaders like Arun Shourie, Yaswant Singh and Vasundhara Raje have shown that not all is right in the principal Opposition party of India.
With all this backlash within party leaders, do you think BJP leadership is heading for a downfall?
Under this topic, let us discuss where BJP Leadership is heading...

The BJP’s Premier Debate The main opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is getting scorched by the wrong debate at the wrong time: who should be prime minister? Elections in India aren’t due until May 2014. But this hasn’t stopped an unseemly, unacknowledged cold war erupting between two prime ministerial hopefuls: Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi and his one-time mentor and eternal prime minister-in-waiting, L.K. Advani. As a result, Modi skipped the first day of the party’s National Executive meeting that began in New Delhi on Friday. The whole debate on who should be premier if the BJP takes power has taken a nasty turn with Gujarat BJP chief Balbir Punj describing Modi as ‘the bes...

Absolutely. During the Loksabha Polls, BJP in its campaign tried to portray itself as a party with a difference and Mr. Advani as the "Loh Purush". It claimed that if it was in power then it would have dealt differently with the 26/11 situation....

There are some "Blind Spots", the personality traits which are obstacles to become a good leader. These are the bad habits we have, due to the lack of self-awareness or reluctant to improve. These are- Blind ambition- Has to win or "right" at all costs; competes instead of cooperates; exaggerates his/her own value and contribution; is boastful and arrogant; sees people in black-and-white terms as allies or enemies. Unrealistic goals- Sets overly ambitious, unattainable goals for the group or organisation; is unrealistic about what it takes to get jobs done. Relentless striving- Compulsively hardworking at the expense of all else in life; runs on empty; is vulnerable to bunout. Drives others- Pushes other people too hard, burning them out; micromanages and takes over instead of delegating; comes actoss as abrasive or ruthless and insensitive to the emotional harm to others. Power hungry- Seeks power fot his/her own interests, rather than the organisation's; pushes a personal agenda...

In many ways, a manager has to be a leader, so therefore a manager will have many of the traits that a leader does. However, I feel the term 'manager' applies primarily to business, it's in a manager's best interest to lead his co-workers effectively, encouraging them to achieve their goals and targets. In my experience, a leader is more of a social thing; more associated with team work, too. Go to Discussion http://lnkd.in/wUJe5E

The other day I was in a restaurant and saw a sign advertising "Sliders Fridays." From what I gathered, they offered a deep discount on tiny hamburgers, called sliders, on Friday nights. The interesting thing about this discovery is that I own the restaurant and it's the first I knew of it. (Stacey's at Waterford: www.eatatstaceys.com ) I don't just own the restaurant. I also manage it, although I use that term loosely. I've taken the concept of hands-off management to the next level. Most of the time I have no idea what the staff is up to. They organize customer events, execute marketing ideas, hire and fire, change the menu, and pretty much anything else they want. I only get involved if there is a largish expense that needs to be approved. I see the financials daily, by e-mail, but I'm mostly about the bottom line. As a well-known critic of managers, I painted a big red bulls eye on my back when I started managing the restaurant. For the first year I was involved in the details...

This is an ‘untold story’ from Mahabharat, published in a Sanskrit Magazine, many years ago. My father used to read it out to me and translate into my mother tongue. It goes like this: Duryodhan is lying in the battle field, awaiting death, badly bruised by the wounds inflicted by Bhima. He kept his three fingers in a raised position and is unable to speak. All the efforts made by his men to understand the meaning proved to be futile. Seeing his plight Krishna approached him and said “I know what issues occupied your mind. I will address them”. He clarified that the issues are a) not building a fort around his capital city, b) not persuading Vidur to participate in the battle c) not making Aswathama as commander-in-chief after the death of Dronacharya. Krishna explained further that (a) Assuming that you built a fort, I would have asked Nakul to mount the horse and destroy the fort, (b) If you succeeded in persuading Vidur to participate in the battle, I would have...
