My notes from the Talk of Dr. Prasad Kaipa Integration of Good Thoughts in to action will happen successfully if it is flown all the three levels of Body, Talk, and Mind (kayEna, VaCha and manasA) Indian Core Strengths were being spread through Yoga and Ayurveda. Now it is ‘Management’ When Pepsi produces beverage in US with allowed pesticide content, why they don’t follow the same health rule in India? We do not have such legislation ! But is it right for PEPSI corporate governance to do that here in India taking advantage of lack of legislation?
My notes from the Talk of Dr. Prasad Kaipa Dr Kaipa asked participants to write answers of these 4 questions 1. What is my purpose of work? 2. How do I make right choices? 3. What is my definition of success? 4. What do I seek as my reward? I think the answers to these questions will clarify our own vision, values and way ahead in profession.
My notes from the Talk of Dr. Prasad Kaipa Some answers projected by Dr. Kaipa… 1. What is my purpose of work? (Serving Larger needs) 2. How do I make right choices? (By enlightened self interest and not by narrow self interest) 3. What is my definition of success? (Evolution) 4. What do I seek as my reward? (Total Compensation)
Some Leadership Principles that are more relevant today 1. Enlightened self interest Vs Narrow self COMMITMENT interest 2. Non-attachment to one particular view VIEW 3. Decision based on data, intuition and insight DECISION 4. Using multiple forms of intelligence INTELLIGENCE (Reason, Emotion, Intuition and Inspiration) 5. Balancing History and Possibility BALANCE 6. Bridging the Gap between IQ-EQ-SQ and PORARITIES AQ (Activity Quotient)
Wisdom Scientific Perspectives Perspectives Management Perspectives
State of the Mind Operating Day to Day • Tamasa • Sathvika • Rajasic Passive Balanced Aggressive If we don’t watch our mind at a given time, it becomes part of autopilot in the state of Leading and Innovating. What will you do, if what you can control is 10% and what you cannot control is 90%? The way out is tactical. How do we negotiate and move in a traffic to reach our destination? Same focused effort is needed in our professional journey and leadership way.
Enlightened Self Interest Vs Enhanced Self Interest Credibility – Words must match actions. Remove the Talking-Doing Gap Possible if you pay attention to within Commitment – Feeling and Doing Gap Courage – Being and Doing Gap Think… What is my ‘North Star’? Leaders-Followers metaphor has changed to ‘Leading Leaders’ Experience from Failure transforms you more than experience from Success. We forget the process of failure and we strangely remember the success. Failure is the only way to learn shifting from Idiot mindset to Ideal Mindset Framework for living comes from failures.
