According to Banga, leadership is one of the most difficult concepts to teach or explain. Some people believe that leaders are born and not made, while others believe that leadership can be learned. Banga believes that neither is true. Ours leadership skills are fashioned by our upbringing and the influences of our formative years. Character is the most important aspect corporates should look at when appointing successors.
Leadership is an interesting combination of strategy and character.
According to Banga, there is no prescription for a good leadership style. Leaders are not followers a true leader is always himself. Leaders need to outline a vision they should have the ability to look far into the future and should be able to project the direction of different trends, be they social, economic or technological, and their possible impacts on business. This, however, is becoming increasingly difficult. It s also essential to identify the synergistic effect of these changes.
