Lead with humility and compassion from "summary" of Mahatma Gandhi : His Own Story by C. F Andrews
It is said that true leadership requires a sense of humility and compassion. As I look back on my own life, I realize that these qualities have been the cornerstone of my leadership philosophy. Humility, to me, means putting aside one's ego and acknowledging that we are all equal in the eyes of the divine. It is about recognizing our own limitations and weaknesses, and learning from others with an open mind and heart. Compassion, on the other hand, is the ability to empathize with others and show kindness and understanding in all situations. It is about treating others with respect and dignity, regardless of their background or beliefs. Compassion is not a sign of weakness, as some may believe, but rather a strength that allows us to connect with others on a deeper level. In my own journey, I have always strived to lead with humility and compassion. I have never claimed to have all the answers or to be perfect in any way. Instead, I have approached each situation with an open heart and a willingness to listen and learn from those around me. I have always believed that true leadership is about serving others and making a positive impact in the world. Leading with humility and compassion is not always easy. It requires a great deal of self-awareness and introspection. It means being willing to admit when we are wrong and to make amends when necessary. It means putting the needs of others before our own desires and ambitions. It means being willing to stand up for what is right, even when it is difficult or unpopular. But despite the challenges, I have always found that leading with humility and compassion is the most fulfilling way to live. It has allowed me to connect with people from all walks of life and to make a meaningful difference in the world. And I believe that if more leaders were to adopt this approach, the world would be a much better place for all of us.
