Statement by the Dalai Lama, who only concentrate which preaches compassion and peace that are rarely expressed directly on the business philosophy, listening back like a corporate CEO age is prepared to turn over his power. And indeed, the leadership is always a theme throughout many of the teachings of the Dalai Lama. He even regularly use Twitter to "tweet" about this point. The 1990s, after the international management consultant for the Dalai Lama, Laurens van den realized Muyzenberg thoughts hidden behind the all his teaching philosophy. Realizing that can combine the ideas brought the Buddhist of the Dalai Lama to the field his expertise, van den Muyzenberg has the same he wrote the book The Leader's Way (The Way of the leaders). "The My clients are major problems to 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 teachings of the leader is the Dalai Lama into the book The Leader's Way as well as lectures and the "tweets" of him. Expanding Horizons In The Leader's Way has two major messages. The first message is: 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 must think to comprehend the consequences of the objectives that we target and purpose behind the daily affairs. 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 the company. Setting up the correct behavior Set on the principles of popular 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, let's build a reporting system, review progress on a regular basis. Hone mind Dalai Lama says if you do not mind, it will be shaped like a monkey on the tree, always aggressive and can not concentrate. Used to cultivate Buddhism, also known as meditation, to constrain the behavior of the brain. Although few CEO who is intent on nourishing to the gym 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 then the impulse, and extremists would decrease the quality of thinking will be enhanced. "Leaders must be aware of when thinking of that person starts dominated by negative emotions such as anger, angry, impatient, 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 wasting mentality." The basic meditation techniques such as deep breathing, relaxing tendons and emotional control can help leaders become calm, poised at any time, anywhere. Focus on joy, happiness score What the company makes us happy? What point does not make us happy? Just ask these two simple questions, leaders can figure out the best way to create motivation for employees, customers and convincing support for the shareholders. According to the Dalai Lama, joy, happiness is the most common forms of motivation. "We often forget that despite our differences, but still the same in a most basic 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 key precondition. However, this does not mean businesses have to sacrifice profits to do that. "Some people think that to be happy, they must change money, but actually not so" - van den Muyzenberg said. "A company that happiness is a successful company. When you care about the source of the happiness then you are more for investment success. " Being linked with Buddhism 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 connections are realized. "The leaders of reconciliation always considered himself to be a source of momentum for the system to reconciliation and looked out the purposes of that system," - Dalai Lama and van den Muyzenberg article in The Leader's Way. When a impulse - could be anything, from a conversation, a presentation to a policy - a personal touch to another, it generates ideas and enable productive chain reaction creativity. The task of leadership is to manage and maintain that momentum for the team. 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 are very easy to fall into a state always worried things will become difficult and always prepare for the worst. However, in contrast, the Dalai Lama advises businesses should have the optimism: "Let thanked heaven that her situation than many people and have great promise and then took it as fun, how their strengths "- he said it in a" tweet "of the previous month. All problems have solutions and have the right attitude right from the start can help you figure out how to solve it. And when things get tough, get the Dalai Lama as a source of feeling hung.Van den Muyzenberg recalls, "was once the Dalai Lama told me that" I thought I might not be happy because I lost my home, lost everything. But I was very happy here. END=VIETNAMESE TRANSLATE ENGLISH BY GESHE TASHI TSERING.( MHDT ).13/4/2012.OM MANI PADME HUM.( 3 TIMES ).
