MANAGEMENT LESSONS FROM DALAI LAMA.


Here we extracted some of the teachings of the leader was Dalai Lama into the book The Leader's Way, as well as lectures and "tweets" of him.
September, Dalai Lama - the 76-year-old spiritual leader in exile of Tibet - issued a statement on his plans early pregnancy - people will be reincarnated as his successor - as if "strategy" for the long term their holy enterprise.

Statement of the Dalai Lama, who was dedicated to only preach of peace and compassion that is rarely expressed directly the philosophy of business, I hear like a corporate CEO age is prepared to turn over his power.
And indeed, the leadership is always a theme throughout many teachings of the Dalai Lama. He even regularly use Twitter to "tweet" about this.
The in 1990, after an international management consultant for the Dalai Lama, Laurens van den Muyzenberg realized ideas hidden behind the all his teaching philosophy. Realizing that can combine the ideas brought the Buddhist Dalai Lama with the field his expertise, van den Muyzenberg was the same he wrote the book The Leader's Way (The Way of the leaders).
"Section My clients are major obstacles to the issues related to ethics, "van den Muyzenberg comment. "It is hard to find someone who has virtue is revered as the Dalai Lama."
Here we extracted some of the teachings of the leader was Dalai Lama into the book The Leader's Way as well as lectures and "tweets" of him.
Expanding Horizons
In The Leader's Way has two major messages. The first section is the message: to be leaders, we must understand why we act. As the Dalai Lama said: "The nature of the engine will determine the character of the action." In business, this means we have to thoroughly think about the consequences of the objectives that we target and purpose behind the daily service.
In addition, it also reminds us not only think about their own interests but the interests of the people we lead. The discussions held and opinions of everyone in the company and the link between the two departments to ensure that people understand and follow the directions that you choose for your company.

Set the correct behavior
Sets common principles of business alone is not enough. "I see many companies set very tough rules, but they can not apply those principles," van den Muyzenberg said. To ensure the best principles of realizing we are in business, build a reporting system, review progress on a regular basis. Hone your mind Dalai Lama says if you do not mind, it will be shaped like a monkey on a tree, always aggressive and can not concentrate. Using a Buddhist practice, also known as meditation, to overcome this behavior of the brain. Although few CEO intends to do gym training clubs to meditate every morning before work, but the Dalai Lama has always reminded that once the brain that are trained and maintain a peaceful status is the impulse, extremists will decrease and the quality of thinking will be enhanced. "Leaders must be aware of when thinking of starting it is ruled by negative emotions such as frustration, anger, an anger, low self-esteem, jealousy, greed" - Germany Dalai Lama and van den Muyzenberg wrote in The Leader's Way. "The emotions and negative thoughts not only lead to bad decisions, but also skeptical minds free." The basic meditation techniques like deep breathing, relaxation near the core and emotions can help leaders become more calm, poised at any time, anywhere. Focus on the joy, the happiness score What do companies make us happy? What do make us unhappy? Just ask two simple questions, leaders can find the best ways to create motivation for employees, customers and convincing support for the shareholders. According to the Dalai Lama, joy, happiness is the most common form of dynamics. "We often forget that despite our many differences, but still the same in a most fundamental point, which is the desire of peace and happiness." - He said on Twitter last day in November. The satisfaction of employees, customers and shareholders is the key premise. However, this does not mean businesses have to sacrifice profits to do that. "Some people think that to be happy, they have to trade off money, but actually not so" - van den Muyzenberg said. "A happy company is a successful company. When you care about the source of happiness, then at that time you are investing more for success. "








Become binding
Buddhism for that relationship harmony, coherence between all things - human beings actually exist only in relation to others. From the Buddhist perspective, the enterprise is regarded as a network of relationships, a supernatural creature that only works when all interconnections are realized. "The leaders of reconciliation has always considered himself to be a source of momentum for the system harmony and overlooks the purpose of that system," - Dalai Lama and van den Muyzenberg article in The Leader's Way.
When a momentum - can be anything, from a conversation, a presentation to a policy - a personal touch to the other, it generates ideas and trigger chain reactions to yield creativity. The task of leadership is to manage and maintain the momentum source for staff. However, the harmony not only in internal relations but also firm relations with customers, consumers, financial sector and even competitors. Always optimistic Executive is a business extremely difficult. The entrepreneur or small business owners easily fall prey to always worry things will become difficult and always prepare for the worst. However, in contrast, Dalai Lama advises businesses should have the optimism: "Let's Thank God that my situation a lot more people and have great promise and then took it as fun, how his strength "- he has said so in a" tweet "of the previous month. All problems have solutions and the right attitude right from the start can help you figure out how to solve it. And when things get tough, get Dalai Lama as inspiration. Van den Muyzenberg recalls: "There have been times Dalai Lama told me that" I thought I might not be happy because I lost my home, lost everything. But I was very happy there.
